So this month is National Heart Month❤️, I know it’s ⏩ half way through the month! But guess what? the weather is getting mild…. in my eyes 😆. It could be me! because i've been living in West Yorkshire for 8 years ++. Point is don’t wait for the 20 degree plus weather, start enjoying the outdoors now, your mind and body will thank you for it.
Among other reasons are my favorite, the sunshine vitamin AKA vitamin D, you will need to be outdoors for 30mins a day between the months of March and October. Most of your vitamin D comes from the sun, working with calcium and phosphorus for healthy bones.
Foods containing vitamin D:
Oily fish - salmon, herring, sardines, kippers, pilchards, mackerel, trout and eel.
Cod liver oil - don't take if pregnant.
Egg yolks, liver and offal.
Many more food items, check your food labels.
Try the Mediterranean style of eating.
.
Supplement- All Adults, young people & children over the age of 4 should consider taking a daily supplement containing 10 micrograms (400 units) of vitamin D between October and early March
