The perks of working for myself= studying up on brain health, taking client calls, relaxing, and taking in vitamin D all at the same time.

Did you know that Vitamin D is synthesized in the skin and can be absorbed through the eyes from the sun? Learned that in Headstrong by @dave.asprey.

I also learned almost 100% of vitamin D is absorbed through the sun synthesis of vitamin D rather than about 60-70% absorption from supplements from @foundmyfitness in her @paleofx talk. 🤓

That said, the sun can be harmful to people with skin cancer or aging issues that run in their families. Therefor a balance of supplementation, foods rich in vitamin D like whole eggs, and some sunlight is the best way to get the brain health effects of vitamin D.
