Vitamin D
Posted on: Saturday, Feb 12, 2011
Vitamin D is meant to be good for MS. Vitamin D comes from exposure to the sun. Exposure to the sun in Australia can be dangerous. Here’s a link to a calculator that tells you healthy levels of exposure to the sun. You need to enter the time of day, day, month, latitude & longitude (you can get this from Google Maps), the sky condition (cloudy etc) and your skin type – and voila! For me to get the required dose in Vanuatu on a sunny day could be 2 minutes while in Melbourne on an overcast day it would be 39 minutes. http://nadir.nilu.no/~olaeng/fastrt/VitD-ez_quartMED.html

Exposure to sun would be a fine thing here in Belfast…….what exactly is sun again???
Raining or about to rain are the only two weather conditions I’m familiar with.”
