Make sure you are building up your vitamin D store cupboard with all this sunshine. There’s a host of reasons why we need it. The bone building benefits have been known for decades., but it can also help with heart and lung conditions and help to protect against diabetes and some forms of cancer.

It can cut the risk of colorectal cancer by up to 60%, and can help fight off prostate cancer. It may also be able to help slow the growth of breast cancer.

It also has benefits for the heart, and those with low levels of vitamin D can suffer with hardening of the arteries. It inhibits inflammation which is known to contribute to athlerosclerosos. Children who regularly took vitamin D supplements had a lower incidence of type one and two diabetes.

As more research is done it seems this vitamin could also be helpful with depression, asthma, MS and viral infections. The body naturally produces vitamin when it comes into contact with the sun, so 15 minutes per day exposure without suncream is all you need to buikd up your vitamin D stores.

If you aren’t able to get much sun you could always try taking supplements, but for most of us a short walk outside in the daytime is all we need to improve our health.
