Windows are becoming increasingly important during these days of confinement, as they are responsible for bringing sunlight into our homes. Vitamin D is the only vitamin that, in addition to food, we can synthesise through sunlight. For this reason, experts advise that during these days of confinement we should be exposed to direct sunlight every day. Spending at least 10 minutes on the balcony or opening the window to let sunlight reach your body can be crucial for your health. A lack of this vitamin is associated with various health problems, such as rickets, bronchitis, diabetes and pneumonia. You should also take care with your diet, paying special attention to foods such as salmon, tuna, mackerel and cheese.
Those 10 or 20 minutes of sun exposure in your routine will bring many benefits to your health and also improve your mood.
