Sunshine and Vit D

Wow, it's a great big sunny day today!
The beach beckons...

A while ago my Vit D levels were dangerously low. I was put on Vit D tablets by my M.E. Dr. and told to get out into the sun.
Nothing beats the warm sunshine on your skin, it makes much more Vit D than you can get from supplements. I love to put a natural sunscreen on my face and just lie back and soak up all the goodness.
The salt air is incredibly invigorating as well. I do deep breathing to get it right into the bottom of my lungs then force all the stale air out with a whoosh.
After reading somewhere that burying your toes in the sand helps to "earth" your body,  I also make a point of burying my toes and giving them a good wriggle. It feels great!
