RE: Vitamin D Shown To Help Protect Against Cancer, Heart Failure, And More

in #health7 years ago

Vitamin D has so many benefits, but hard for people in some places to get naturally depending on weather, distance from equator, season etc...

But people need to be really careful with supplements, so many garbage supplements out there...

Sort:  

No sun? Go where it is!

Yeah that would be ideal.

There is certainly a ton a great researching underpinning the vast benefits of having an adequate supply of Vitamin D in your system. And the sun, !The Sun!, is certainly the best way to get it.

Unfortunately for me, I live in Syracuse, NY (recent move). We get about 26.5 minutes of sunlight annually, often times right in the middle of the winter. My wife and I will get naked (inside the house of course) and fight over the little rectangle of sunlight shining on our kitchen floor from our east facing window. I'm bigger than her, so I usually push her off the rectangle, enjoy the sun on my own. But this is not healthy for our relationship in the long term. I guess what I'm saying is Syracuse sucks, it's like living in a whale's vagina or some other cavernous, moist, cold area.

We are very white as of late, and I do fear for our long term health. If anyone has some extra space (and you live in sunny climes) in their house, shed, backyard, office parking space, or you have a neighbor with a large yard that wouldn't notice our tent, I'd really appreciate a little help.

Sorry, a little off topic. Vitamin D is great!!
