🌞 Vitamin D for Men’s Health 🌞 Vitamin D is often referred to as vitamin, but it’s actually a hormone. Vitamin D is manufactured in the skin from 7-dehydrocholesterol in the presence of UV light. Here pre-vitamin D is converted to its active form, vitamin D3. Vitamin D (or hormone D) helps to regulate testosterone levels. A direct correlation between vitamin D and testosterone has been observed in numerous studies, and participants who received higher quantities of the hormone had a higher testosterone count. 🌞 Generally, getting in enough safe sun exposure is all most people need to keep their levels in check. So if you’re in the sun more often than not throughout the year, you’re probably ok. We suggest about 20-30 minutes of full body sun exposure per day (depending on skin tone), including the testicles, or as Mason loves to call it, “getting Ds on your Bs”. If you feel your vitamin D levels may be low, consult with a naturopath who can help you supplement with a practitioner grade vitamin D supplement. 🌞 Keeping your skin healthy can be additionally assisted with the Beauty Blend and Chaga, which both assist the organs that govern the skin and assists in protecting it from damage. 🌞 ☀️ 🌞 #skinhealth #vitamind #vitaminddeficiency #testicularhealth #menshealthawareness #tonicherbs #holisticliving #mushrooms #holisticmedicine #Herbs #liver #Energy #BeyondOrganic #immunesupport #mushies #wellnessjourney #immunity #Elixir #adaptogens #nontoxicliving #lung #medicinalmushrooms #wildfood #earth #byronbay #MasonsMushrooms #Herbal #tao
