Summer Soltice Sans Summer

What the heck?


Where is my natural Vitamin D, gosh darnit!?  I thought by this time of year I could ditch my vitamin D supplements and get it from the good ol' sun - but alas, that is not the case.... yet.

If you don't already, you should consider taking a Vitamin D supplement.  Vitamin D is pretty essential and since we really only get it from the sun and we are all Seattleites, it might not be a bad idea to get it in supplement form.  Here are some of the things that Vitamin D does for us:
  • In conjunction with Calcium and Vitamin A, it promotes bone strength and growth
  • Is an essential player in the immune system
  • Reduces systemic and chronic inflammation
Check out Mark's Daily Apple's several recent Vitamin D articles for more information.
