At temperate latitudes (around 40° north/south and above), there are certain months when the UVB levels are too low for your body to produce enough vitamin D, even on sunny days! A good rule of thumb is: if your shadow is longer than your height, you’re not making vitamin D. Want to learn more about how this affects athletes?

All too often we hear about people who are eating health or really 'clean' diets and still struggle with weight. We often times overlook that healthy foods can also be really calorie dense. Almond, avocado, olive oil, granola and salmon are all really healthy options but are also very calorie dense!

When looking at the big picture, we need to make sure we find the balance of quality and quantity of our diets. Remember: Quality supports your health. Quantity drives your results.

Thank you Joseph Arangio for including me in this great article that puts it all together for everyone!
