WELLNESS WEDNESDAY TIP- Vitamin D, often referred to as the ‘sunshine vitamin’ plays a vital role in our overall wellness. Vitamin D is especially important for bone health; research suggests it may play a part in a healthy immune response to infection, and possibly in the prevention of a variety of chronic diseases. With the arrival of the cold months and decreased sunlight exposure, many of us will become deficient in Vitamin D.

You can also talk to your physician about other ways to increase your Vitamin D level to help improve your overall health and wellness this winter.
