☀️Let’s talk about Vitamin D, a vital nutrient many of us in the PNW don’t get enough of, especially in winter!

How much sun do you really need? It depends on your skin tone, age, location, and how much skin is exposed. In the summertime, 10–30 minutes a few times a week may be enough, but in winter, it could take up to 2 hours to meet your needs.

Swipe to learn more about why Vitamin D matters and how to support healthy levels year round.
