Vitamin D

Did you know that your vitamin D absorption might be lower during summer? You may know that out bodies can make vitamin D as we spend time outside in the sun, but did you know that sunscreen can block our ability to make vitamin D from the sun? Pollution and limited time outdoors can also decrease your vitamin D levels. So how do you know if you are deficient in vitamin D, and how do you increase your vitamin D intake?
