Nature’s Vitamin

We’ve discussed ways to harness the sun’s power to help warm our cars and homes, but the sun can have massive benefits to our health as well. Surely, you’ve noticed how much better you feel after spending some time in the sun, no matter what time of year it is. That good feeling isn’t just psychological; it’s physiological.

Your body needs vitamin D, and you won’t get it only by adding certain fruits and veggies to your diet. You’ll find doses of it in certain foods, but sunshine is the best source for this valuable vitamin. Vitamin D helps absorb calcium, making your bones stronger. It also strengthens your immune system, among many other valuable benefits.
