Quik Hit: Vitamin D Does a Body Good I went to an awesome lecture last night about health--largely defined--and one of the take-aways that I wanted to turn-key is that there is a huge vitamin D deficiency among so many women who are afraid of getting too much sun. It may be contributing to some cancer increases and other autoimmune diseases. Experts recommend that you get 20 minutes of sun on 20% of your body between 11 am and 2 pm every day. After that it's good to protect yourself, but it's important to get a little bit of direct sunlight first.
So unchain yourself from those cubicles and computers and go outside right now!
