How to Get Natural Vitamin D Without a Pill

Vitamin D deficiency has been linked to cancer and bone loss in recent JAMA studies. Because we are more sequestered indoors and wear sunglasses we are often deficient in Vitamin D.

Some of the effects of low Vitamin D are exhaustion, mental fatigue, emotional numbness, difficulty sleeping to name a few.

This mineral is not yet fully explored but here are a few simple tips to get the Vitamin D you need to have good health.

Difficulty: Easy

Instructions

1. Decide to leave your sunglasses off for 1 day. Every time you go outside without your sunglasses you are allowing the vitamin D from the sun (even if it's cloudy) to absorb into your cells.

2. Go outside and stand or sit in the sun. You can keep your eyes open or close them and relax.

3. Deep breathing while you are outside is good for the absorption.

4. You can also add non-hormone based dairy products and some fish to get vitamin D from your diet.

Tips & Warnings

• Overall going without eye covering allows vitamin D to naturally produce. A healthy diet without too much fat will allow the suns rays to naturally penetrate the skin thus producing the proper amount of Vitamin D for the body.
• There are not many cases where there's too much Vitamin D but it has been known to occur.
