How Important is Vitamin D3. Are you Suffering from Colds, Flu & Respiratory Illnesses?

Rae from Room To Heal

Hello Neighbours
The healthier we all are, the less we have to fear from inevitable contact with viruses or any other contagion. Indeed, humans evolved alongside microbes for millions of years and we all carry bits of viruses in our own DNA.

It is not generally appreciated how important it is to maintain adequate levels of vitamin D. Vitamin D is necessary for the immune system to respond appropriately to infections – including viral infections like influenza and covid etc. Vitamin D is the “sunshine vitamin”. It is created in the body after bare skin is exposed to sunshine. This exposure must occur outdoors as the ultra-violet (UV) light frequencies that stimulate Vitamin D production do not pass through glass.

In cold weather when it is necessary to dress warmly and the sun is lower in the sky, vitamin D synthesis is greatly reduced and over time, vitamin D that may have been stored in the liver from the summer months can decline until an individual’s vitamin D levels become insufficient or frankly deficient.

Give your body what it needs now!

Vitamin D3 supplements are available for purchase from Room to Heal or purchase from my website listed below.

We suggest always taking a Vitamin D3 and Vitamin K2 combination supplement.

What's your favourite tomato recipe?

Mei Leng Wong Reporter from NZ Gardener & Get Growing

Kia ora neighbours. We know your tomato plants are still growing, but we're looking ahead to the harvest already! If you've got a family recipe for tomatoes, we'd love to see it and maybe publish it in our magazine to share with our readers. Send your recipe to mailbox@nzgardener.co.nz, and if we use it in the mag, you will receive a free copy of our February 2025 issue.
