Winter Wellness Series: VITAMIN D โ˜€๏ธ๐ŸŒž

The Chiro from The Chiro - Lower Hutt

The last few weeks have been particularly cold, especially here in Wellington! Usually the coldest nights are followed by brilliant clear days, with the sun out in full force! ๐Ÿฅถ๐Ÿ˜Ž
Vitamin D is an essential nutrient that plays a crucial role in maintaining overall wellness & supporting immune function. ๐Ÿง˜โ€โ™€๏ธ๐Ÿฆ 

Vitamin D deficiency can have a variety of impacts on the body, including:

โŽ Bone weakness & increased risk of osteoporosis
โŽ Muscle weakness & pain
โŽ Impaired immune function
โŽ Mood disorders
โŽ Increased risk of chronic health conditions

While it can be obtained through certain dietary sources and supplementation, sunlight exposure is a primary and natural way for the body to absorb, synthesise, and utilise Vitamin D!

Key Tip ๐Ÿ”‘:
Getting outside for natural light exposure in the morning is an great way to get the day started, and get the Vit D intake! Try couple this with a 30 minute walk so you nail your movement goal too!

Kia pai from Sharing the Good Stuff

Many New Zealand gardens arenโ€™t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days โ€” the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, whoโ€™s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.

Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?

Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
