How to take advantage of the benefits of Vitamin D during winter

did you know that Vitamin D is an essential nutrient for our body?

Stored in adipose tissue, it facilitates the absorption of calcium that our bones need. Not only does it contribute to the proper functioning of our skeleton, but it is also an essential building block for our muscles and joints.

Benefits of vitamin D

The great ally for the immune system

As we have already mentioned, it contributes to the proper functioning of the bone and muscle system. In addition, several scientific studies support that it strengthens the defenses and helps our immune system to fight against viruses and bacteria.

Eggs, salmon, tuna, sardines or dairy products are rich in Vitamin D. Combined with other fatty foods, we will achieve a greater absorption of this vitamin.

The sun, source of Vitamin D

Considered the main source of this vitamin so necessary for our organism, from the sun we obtain approximately 80% of the optimal amount that our organism needs.

The sun's rays are not only beneficial for our health, but also for our skin: sunbathing helps us to synthesize the vitamin.

However, we must keep in mind that sun exposure should be moderate. Experts advise that daily sunbathing for 8 to 15 minutes is sufficient to generate Vitamin D.
