No Weight Loss? Check Your Vitamin D Levels
The pandemic has opened everybody’s eyes to how important it is to maintain optimal vitamin D levels.
Curious minds who are interested in weight loss know that in order to achieve fat loss, you gotta be sensitive to the appetite regulating hormone LEPTIN.
Well, here’s a vitamin D-leptin connection:
𝐑𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐜𝐡 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐰𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐟 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐯𝐢𝐭. 𝐃 𝐥𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐥𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐚𝐛𝐨𝐯𝐞 𝟓𝟎 𝐧𝐠/𝐦𝐥, 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭’𝐬 𝐚𝐬𝐬𝐨𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐥𝐞𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐧 𝐬𝐞𝐧𝐬𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐭𝐲.
But before you reach for that bottle of D3, lemme clarify something real quick:
𝐕𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐧 𝐃 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐮𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐯𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐦𝐢𝐧 𝐃 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐚 𝐛𝐨𝐭𝐭𝐥𝐞 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐚𝐦𝐞.
Here’s why:
- Vit. D helps white blood cells in clearing infections. That happens ONLY when you get UV-B frequencies (sunlight) through your skin.
- Vit. D also cannot convert to the active form in your body, when the cholesterol in your skin isn’t sulphated by the Sun.
- When you take a vit. D supplement, your body needs to make extra LDL cholesterol. That doesn’t need to happen when you create Vitamin D from sunlight.
- And only when you make vit. D via the sunlight in your skin, can you release a vitamin D binding protein that will help you get through the winter.
So take advantage of the summer and go lay naked in the Sun.
