The Sun Vitamine / or, Vital amines !

I fell over this articel in SCIENTIFIC AMERICAN MAGASINE
Just want 2 recommend reading it :heart: If you feel weak in this winter time :insane:

Vitamin D, long associated only with its role in bone formation, is actually active throughout the human body, powerfully influencing immune system responses and cell defenses.
It can be obtained from food or manufactured by human skin exposed to sunlight. Measures of vitamin D levels show, however, that many people have too little of it circulating in their blood to protect health.
Clear associations between low vitamin D levels and cancers, autoimmunity, infectious diseases and other conditions suggest that current daily intake recommendations for this critical nutrient need revision.

thanks for drawing our attention to this article. i found it very interesting.
i've been taking 1,000 units a day according to my doctor's advice to limit the overproduction of skin cells which is commonly known as psoriasis. this article confirms to me the effective qualities of the vitamin and of course, i already knew that the sun helps.
