Tuesday Tidbits with Jenn Hon/Connected Wellness 🌿
It's February and if you're feeling off — sluggish, sad, foggy, unmotivated — your Vitamin D might be tanking. And honestly? Most of us are walking around depleted right now and have NO idea.
Here's what I want you to know: Vitamin D isn't just a vitamin. It's a steroid hormone that controls hundreds of processes in your body — your mood, your immune system, your energy, your sleep. When it drops, YOU feel it.
And February? Peak season for Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) — and low Vitamin D is a huge piece of that puzzle that doesn't get talked about enough.
✔ Get your levels tested — it's easy and affordable (tagging a great budget-friendly option below 👇) Labs Your Way
✔ Don't just supplement blindly — use a Vitamin D calculator to find YOUR dose based on your levels, weight, and goals (linking that too 👇)
✔ Optimal levels are NOT the same as "normal" — I look for 60-80 ng/mL in my patients, not the bare minimum
After 12+ years as an integrative NP, this is one of the first things I check — because it affects everything.
Go get your levels checked. Your mood will thank you. ☀️
