Vitamin D and the Winter Blues
We all enjoy so many aspects of winter, like cozy nights in with our heated blankets and online shopping as much as possible.

Not only does the sun make us feel good, but it's also responsible for about 90% of our body's Vitamin D. So what happens to our Vitamin D levels during the winter? How much should we be getting? How do we know if we're getting enough of this so-called "sunshine vitamin"?
