Busy days often result in us being cooped up indoors and missing out on exposure to sunlight. As we get older, our bodies become less efficient at absorbing much needed nutrients from our diet. By limiting sun exposure, we limit our vitamin D intake and place further strain on our nutrient absorption rate. Instead of taking a supplement, source your vitamin D from the sun. By simply sitting in sunlight for at least 10 minutes a day we can fix this! Being outdoors can also benefit your mood and encourage you to take time out for yourself every once in a while. Vitamin D also works together with calcium to strengthen bones. Protect your body for your elderly years while you can!
WARNING: remember to wear sunscreen and sun-safe clothing each day. The UV exposure in Queensland is particularly harmful.
