Winter weather can be both beautiful and challenging at the same time. Keeping your well-being top of mind during the colder months can keep you safe and make the season one of joy, rather than woe.
Consider the following tips to help protect yourself and others during the winter months:
Short winter days result in less natural vitamin D. It is commonly acknowledged that most Canadians are already deficient in vitamin D and that supplementation is needed. A safe dosage of vitamin D is between 1000IUs to 2000IUs per day, however many practitioners will advocate dosages as high as 5000IUs/day in the winter months.
Make your wellness a priority. Winter won’t get you down if you’re ready for it!
