Your friend the sun
ANDRÉ PICARD
From Friday's Globe and Mail
Canadians of all ages should be getting a few minutes of unprotected exposure to the sun every day, and most should take a daily vitamin D supplement, the Canadian Cancer Society says. The cautious but significant change of policy reflects the belief that diet alone cannot provide northern people such as Canadians with adequate levels of vitamin D, a nutrient that ensures healthy bones and muscles, and that may lower the risk of colorectal cancer and multiple sclerosis.
