Vitamin D - Healthy in the sun!

In this post we will tell you how to be healthy in this hot sun with vitamin D.

Did you know that it is nearly impossible to get all your vitamin D from food? This is because vitamin D is produced by your skin in response to exposure to ultraviolet radiation from natural sunlight.

Another great fact you should know is the farther you live from the equator  the longer the exposure you need to the sun in order to generate vitamin D.  Canada, the UK and most of the US states are far from the equator. 

Here are some ways to get vitamin D:

- going to the beach  (but do not fall asleep in the sun or you might get burned)
- taking vacations in hot places
- take jogs in the sun (but stay hydrated)
- drink Vitamin D fortified milk

Those were some ways to get vitamin D but you can also find more!
