A sunny way to keep weight gain at bay!
You already know that bright skies can boost cheer. But they also increase the production of vitamin D-3, a nutrient that energizes the genes that burn stored fat for fuel. Keep your D-3 levels high by soaking up 20 minutes of sun (or supplementing with 2,000 IU of D-3) daily, and University of Washington scientists say you could slim down 55% fasterat any age, and on any healthy diet.
Strengthen bones with beach time
Sure, breaking a sweat at the gym will bolster your bones. But in happy news, heading to the beach or stretching out in your backyard on sunny days also fuels the growth of strong, healthy, shock-absorbing bone tissue. This slashes fracture risk by as much as 45%, finds a study out of Korea. UV light energizes bone-building cells called osteoblasts, while suppressing the cells known as osteoclasts that sometimes break down bone tissue too quickly.
OR TAKE A SIESTA!
Lazy summer days are the perfect time to indulge in an afternoon snooze! And that's great news for your bones since your body repairs and replaces aging bone cells while you slumber. No wonder a University at Buffalo study found just getting adequate Zzzs reduces osteoporosis risk by up to 22%!
