Our bodies manufacture vitamin D upon our skin’s exposure to sunlight. For those who do not drink milk (which is fortified with vitamin D), getting a little sunshine daily will ensure your body is meeting its vitamin D needs. This is also especially important for the elderly and those who live in areas of the country where they are inside during the majority of the winter months.
We live in a fast-paced society. However, it is vital for our Health and well-being that we take the time to relax and enjoy life while leaving our daily stress behind us. So venture out and try something new. Hike the beautiful countryside or rent a bike and cycle around local neighborhoods. The fresh air, sunlight and exercise will do your mind and body a world of good!
