THE $30 FIX FOR YOUR LOVE LIFE

due to a lack of sunlight. Many of us leave for work in the morning when it’s dark and come home in the evening after sundown. This wreaks havoc on mental health. Doctors recommend that folks with seasonal affective disorder (“SAD”) try to get as much sunlight as they can or use a sunlamp designed to help SAD. Simply exposing your skin to sunlight for 20 minutes or so a day can be enough to fight winter depression. Some people would rather take a pill to get their vitamin D than go outside for 20 minutes a day. But there’s a catch... The vitamin D we get in our food requires sunlight to chemically activate and become useful. So go spend some time outside instead

of relying on a pill. The Institute of Medicine, a group with no pills to sell and no axe to grind, recommends people get between 400 and 800 international units (“IU”) of vitamin D per day, depending on your age. If you live in a northern climate, do what I do and take 800-1,000 IU every other day, but still go out and get sun on your face and hands (if it’s not too cold). Whatever you do, make sure you get your sunshine... It’s best to go outside and get it naturally, but if you’re in an area with limited exposure, a sunlamp could make up for the lack of natural sunlight. And the best news... you can buy one on Amazon for about $30.
