8. Heart problems

Low levels of vitamin D can cause a variety of heart-related issues. For instance, a lack of this nutrient may contribute to high blood pressure. This is because the sunshine vitamin is also vital for maintaining your blood vessels healthy and improving vascular function. When your body gets the right doses of this vitamin, the blood pressure is lowered and the blood vessel walls relax.

That’s why a vitamin D deficiency can increase the risk of heart disease. Some studies actually found a connection between this deficiency and cardiovascular problems like strokes, high blood pressure and heart attacks. The sunshine vitamin also boosts the heart’s pumping functions and therefore may help people who struggle with heart issues.

  1. what one needs is a good multivitamin as their are to many interactions but then the companies wouldn’t make so much money and since no one checks what’s in them you might be getting goat terds called smart pills. All symptoms noted are nonspecific requiring checking more than vitamin D.

    1. Great post and you posted on my birthday. Late afternoon nude sunbathing is also great. You are out of the midday sun and able to enjoy the sun’s rays on your skin. The sun is a great source of vitamin D.

  2. This is a main reason why I am a Naturist. A Naturist is one who practices nudism outdoors for the benefit of getting sunlight on the whole body as the sun is a natural source of vitamin D. To avoid sunburn and possible skin cancer, the best times are very early in the morning or late in the afternoon. Avoid the harmful rays of the midday sun.
    One nudist resort I go to allows me to be in the shade during the mid day where I also go swimming. As a precaution, I also use some sunscreen. Around 4:00 PM the sun has set enough where it is safe to sunbath nude and not get burned. Even better times are between 5 and 6:30 PM. Just enjoy the sun’s rays on your whole body. Your buttocks is the best place to get sun and much needed vitamin D.
