Low Vitamin D levels have been associated with a higher risk of anxiety, autism, Parkinson’s disease, depression and Alzheimer’s disease.

Vitamin D regulates chemicals in the brain that actually help neurons in the cortex and in the hippocampus grow and survive. These are two very important areas that involve our memory and our cognitive functions. This is where we process emotions and complex motor functions.

Most importantly, while all of the other vitamins have to be obtained through our diet, the body naturally produced Vitamin D with Sunlight. Many studies now show that without sunlight exposure, it becomes difficult to obtain the sufficient vitamin D through a natural diet alone. And, this is why I write so much about the dangers of Chem-Trails, that are put in the sky to block natural sunlight.
