- Heart health*
- Cell formation and cell longevity*
- Skin health*
- Pancreatic health*
- Aging process*
- Sleep patterns*
- Hearing*
- Reproductive health*
- Athletic performance*
- Eye health*
- Vascular system health*
- Respiratory health*
- Immune health*... Most people feel in better health during the summer sunshine months -- ever wonder why?
- Healthy mood and feelings of well-being*
- Weight management, including carbohydrate and fat metabolism*
- Hair and hair follicles*
- Strong and healthy bones, because vitamin D encourages calcium uptake*
- Muscles*

Since healthy levels of vitamin D protect and promote so many of your body's functions, a deficiency may mean your body lacks the tools it needs to keep you in optimal health*...
Making sufficient vitamin D a very important issue for you to address!
Because naturally, you want to be at your peak so you feel great, and accomplish so much each and every day.*
Your Only Realistic Ways to Acquire Vitamin D
Realistically, you have just three ways to obtain the vitamin D your body needs.
I've long been an advocate that the absolute best way to get vitamin D is through direct sunlight on your skin. It's the most natural way to acquire your D, and your body self-regulates the amount you receive.
But what if you live in northerly climates where direct sunlight is unavailable for months at a time, as it is in most of the continental U.S.? Short of moving to Hawaii, you still have two alternatives.
One alternative is to regularly use a tanning bed that utilizes UV-B rays such as the revolutionary tanning beds sold elsewhere on this website. Whatever tanning bed you use, please be very sure it includes UV-B rays, so you get the exact rays that provide you optimal health benefits.
Your third alternative is internal supplementation with vitamin D3 -- with a caveat.
Please -- if you supplement with vitamin D3, have your vitamin D levels tested routinely to ensure you do not overdose with it. You and your physician need to be aware of your vitamin D levels so you can adjust your supplementation accordingly. This is a customized approach -- not a one-size-fits-all.
Having said that, studies suggest that most people are deficient in vitamin D -- not overdosing with it.
