Sun & sun vitamins - why you should know vitamin D3!
Fueling a good atmosphere, that's it now. Are you longing for the sun too? Sun, it just puts you in a good mood. The world gets such a ray, the carefree feeling of vacation is in the air. These times were long ago? Just help to get them back. Because sun can do much more. Strengthen you, arm against infections. It has long been an open secret that sun vitamins are also used in liquid form in these pandemic times. Hopefully vitamin D3 is the multi-talent that your body produces under sunlight. That can work, at least in summer, hardly in winter. The good news: you can find out - and support it if necessary.
Why do you need sun?
The sun helps the body to form vitamin D. We all need great teeth, as a immunbooster, great teeth, strong bones. You may not notice an undersupply immediately. All the more massive she can show at some point:
✔ Fatigue symptoms
✔ reduced immune function
✔ muscular problems
✔ Mineral deficiency of the skeleton/ bone pain and deformations
✔ Reduced calcium recording
✔ Rachitis in children
✔ Osteoporosis in older people
So sun would be great, no question. Now we do not live here in southern Europe, but where winter is winter, days cloudy, short, foggy and gray. Nothing with vitamin D production. And unfortunately vitamin D is not in the food that we have on the plate. That could worry you now - but it doesn't have to.
Better dealt with the sun
It is always the same: the dose does it. Too much sun and your skin reduces, gets fold earlier and maybe worse. You definitely don't need that to recharge your portion vitamin D. It is best to test what your vitamin D3 level looks like. So you feel on the safe side and can compensate for before a deficiency is noticeable. By the way, you can easily do the test at home.
How do you use the "real" sun correctly?
Daily for 25 minutes, the sun, which meets 1/3 of the body, suggests that. At least the face, hands, arms and legs should not be covered. And at lunchtime, between 11 a.m. and 3 p.m. You have to go outside. Let yourself be irradiated by the window pane. Great, you will say now. How is that supposed to work when I work? And arms and legs free - yes, that must also be possible first. They also do without sun protection during this time. A little more dangerous, definitely. But even with a sun protection factor of 20, 95-99 % of vitamin D formation in the skin is apparently prevented. That means you always have a good eye on your skin. Perhaps a rule of thumb: about half the time until sunburn. You only know that exactly beforehand ...
Sun and Germany, beautiful theory ...
If you live in Germany, the time between the end of March and mid -October is crucial. Only then, the experts say, is a so-called vitamin D synthesis possible. What we need now best: a bright blue sky, without any cloud. Bull - you can probably count on such days on one hand, especially if you live in the big city, where air pollution is often really to be grasped. It's different in the country or in height. You can see: Dietary supplements can really compensate for a deficit here.
Sun and winter, i.e. I have to recharge your batteries in summer?
If the summer days, i.e. the time between March and mid-October, are over at some point, one speaks of the vitamin D winter. And even in summer, in the morning and evening, the sun's rays contain almost exclusively UV-A, with which vitamin D formation is not possible. Create a reserve, if the summer glows really, that would be admittedly beautiful. Unfortunately, nothing brings anything. Because even if the body is fundamentally able to create vitamin D depots and to use the undersupply in winter-these reserves are almost certainly not enough. Show me the people who can spend enough time outdoors, even if he wants.
Do I get enough sun? Do I have a vitamin D deficit?
We now all know the Robert Koch Institute. There are estimated that more than half of adults are under -supplied in Germany. A good vitamin D supply is available at a blood concentration between 30 and 50 nanomol 25-hydroxyvitamin D per liter of blood serum. A sufficiently high dosage of a suitable nutritional supplement up to 4,000 i.e. - is considered a recommendation. You can easily test your vitamin D level in the blood yourself: with the vitamin D3 test, the so-called vitamin D smartest®-available from Magnetix Wellness-for at home. You take some blood out of the fingertip, mix the blood with the sample solution from the test kit, give a couple
Drops of it onto the test cassette - and after just a few minutes you can evaluate your result with the smartphone app.
And what does the sun vitamin do with me?
Uncharged, lax, in worry that every infection flies you? Do you want to get your good mood back? Survive violent times? Turn off the sun, that would be.
That is why many people now swear by drops of sun vitamins. This is also practical and at work. They can be easily dosed. So you have the certainty that you can prevent a defect yourself.
What do you pay attention to with suitable solar vitamins?
It is best to make sure that the valuable vitamin D3 is solved in medium -chain fatty acids. It should also be filled in a brown bottle to protect against solar radiation. With a pipette, precise dosage is easy. Vegetarians in particular should make sure that the vitamin D3 from Lanolin, also known as wool wax, is naturally obtained. This is obtained as a by -product when it comes to scissors. Of course, no damage is caused by the sheep.
Why is the extra sun vitamin so important in this special time?
We have not yet experienced a pandemic. Accordingly, some recommendations are to strengthen the immune system. Quite confusing, right? In any case, one thing is slowly talking about: Vitamin D3 seems a real option in times of pandemic. Especially if you want to know all the possibilities for yourself, for your family, for your loved ones.
