When I was a new graduate of Early Childhood Education I was often found sitting with a bunch of pre-schoolers in the garden. I would make up songs for them and this one seems to have stuck. Very simple, not grand, just a little ditty...
Oh, Mr Sun
Oh, Mr Sun
Please shine down on me
Today whilst absorbing that all important vitamin D I sing my song to the sun.
I was also reminded by the very beautiful Nicole that vitamin D is best imbibed by the skin if it is left on. In Juliette de Bairacli Levy's book Nature's Children she describes that if you lay in the sun to absorb the D do not wash it off the skin for 24 hours.
So along with my 1200 iu of vitamin D 1,2 and 3 from the bottle, wild fish and organic cow's milk and sitting scantily clad becoming one with the sun, I'm hoping that my levels will improve dramatically because I want to feel totally fabulous, most of the time.
What are your D levels like? Any tricks that you could share with me?
