As many of you know, the sun is the most common and arguably best source of Vitamin D.
Unfortunately, during these winter months sunlight drops drastically. Coupled with Corona Virus which has kept many of us inside, it's highly possible that a lot of us are not getting enough Vitamin D.
Today Wave Soda brings you blog on the benefits of Vitamin D, and where to find it besides the sun!
How Does Vitamin D Affect Us?
You know that feeling you get after you have spent a few hours outside in the sun--that feeling of joy and wholeness? Not too far off from the feeling you get when drinking a grapefruit soda! Well, there's a scientific explanation for that!
Researchers have actually discovered there is a strong link between sun exposure and a decrease in depression. Turns out, soaking up some rays can actually help fight depression.
