Sunshine Vitamin

Vitamin D

So after going on a 50K bike ride with some friends this morning I thought it would be good if we all got outside this weekend and got our share of Vitamin D. It is also called the “Sunshine” vitamin as exposure to sunlight causes your body to produce vitamin D. A few great benefit of getting out side this weekend and soaking up some vitamin D.

  1. it helps your body fight diseases. Studies have shown that is decreases your chance of developing heart disease, multiple sclerosis and reduced your risk of developing the flu.
  2. Regular exposure to sunlight and with the increased production of vitamin D has shown positive effects in helping people who suffer from depression.
  3. Last but certainly not least additional vitamin D has been shown to help people on weight loss regimes.

It certainly feel’s like the first day of summer, so get out there and go for a walk, hike or bike ride and make the most of it.

Today I am thankful for a great bike ride with friends, a health snack during our pit stop at the 25K mark and being able to feel the warmth of the sun for the first time this year.
