☀️Vitamin D☀️
It’s the sunshine vitamin because our bodies can make Vitamin D through the UV B rays in the sun.
That feels a little like 🌱photosynthesis🌱 to me.
This is a big one, especially now that we have fewer hours of sunlight.

Our body uses Vitamin D to support our immune system, regulate our mood, and have healthy bones🦴. Did you know that Vitamin D has been shown to help lessen the effects of respiratory illnesses?

Because we get some of our Vitamin D from the ☀️, deficiencies are pretty common. Especially in the winter time when we spend more time indoors, covered up, and the sun sits lower in the sky.

Some signs and symptoms of a Vitamin D deficiency include:
🥱Fatigue
🦴Body/Bone aches
💤Poor sleep
😵‍💫Mood changes
😞Signs of depression
🤧Being sick more often

Luckily, lots of commonly consumed foods have Vitamin D such as
🍣Salmon
🥚Egg Yolks
🥛Fortified Milk
🐟Canned Tuna and other fatty fish

And of course, you can go outside for about 10-15 minutes. If you plan on being outside longer, please take the proper precautions and protect your skin and 💦hydrate💦!
