Low Vitamin D May Cause Wintertime Blues
Why do I get tired during the wintertime months?
During the wintertime our levels of vitamin d drop significantly (more than 50 percent in the northern areas) because we do not get enough sun exposure and even if we do, the sun is not as strong in the winter, even in the South, and vitamin d levels can fall.
We recommend that you get your vitamin d levels checked because low levels can contribute to your fatigue. Vitamin D is also critical for every cell in your body, bone health and calcium absorption. If your levels are below 50 ng/dl (nanograms per deciliter) you must supplement. Bob recommends 5,000 to 10,000 IU of vitamin d3 per day which is a safe and effective dose for most people.
It is best to keep your vitamin d levels between 70 and 100 ng/dl. To do this, Bob has a supplement designed to help. Bob’s Best Vitamin D3 or Call 888-654-7776
The Real Reason Flu Hits in Winter
For hundreds of years, people believed that you catch the cold and flu in the winter because of the cold weather. There are many studies that have proven this idea false. Even places in the world where i’ts warm all year long, people still get the flu during the winter!
We have known for years that vitamin D protects you against a whole host of illnesses, including osteoporosis and cancer. But recent research shows that vitamin D protects you against infections too. It does this by stimulating your body to make a powerful germ fighting substance called cathelicidin. Some scientists believe that cathelicidin just might be the most powerful natural antibiotic ever uncovered!
This is all perfectly logical since we all know that our bodies make less vitamin D in the winter because there’s less sunlight. So the reason we get sick in the winter has nothing to do with the temperature outside. It has everything to do with the fact that our vitamin D levels are lower!
So, protect yourself with the amazing powers of vitamin D3. During the summer, spend at least 15 minutes per day outside and expose your skin to the healing powers of the sun. In the winter, spring and fall, take Bob’s Best Natural Vitamin D3. Bob suggests that you take 5,000 to 10,000 iu per day. Just one or two of Bob’s high quality supplement supplies your body with the same essential form of vitamin D that your body makes.
Oh! And don’t forget the essential minerals and vitamins necessary for optimal health by adding Bob’s Best Coral Calcium 2000 as your “Acid Eliminator”. You have nothing to loose but poor health!

Vitamin D3 is an essential building block in maintaining a healthy, vigorous immune system. Studies in recent years, reporting the dangers of unnecessary sun exposure, are causing many people to drastically limit the time spent outdoors. Health providers have reported an alarming increase in Vitamin D deficient patients, and believe the trend to avoid exposure to natural sunlight has created this situation.
As a dedicated nutritionist, Robert Barefoot is very knowledgeable concerning the proper nutritional and dietary requirements of the human body. Bob recommends that everyone spend 2 hours in the sun every day (without sunglasses). Natural sunlight provides essential benefits for our bodies. Bob’s Best Vitamin D3 is an example of Barefoot’s commitment to provide consumers with health supplements containing only the purest and most effective ingredients.
Bob’s Best Vitamin D3 uses Cholecalciferol (Natural Vitamin D3) which is the most efficient and natural form. It is the only viable alternative to meeting the body’s need for Natural Vitamin D. There are other Vitamin D supplements that use Ergocalciferol or Vitamin D2, which is un-natural, far less effective and could actually be toxic.
The body is equipped with a network of Vitamin D Receptors. Essentially, VDR’s are present in the majority of the body’s cells and in the lining of the intestinal tract. Vitamin D Receptors in the intestinal tract aid in the absorption of calcium, magnesium and other nutrients the body requires to maintain strong teeth and bones and to sustain alkalinity and overall good health.
Researchers suggest that the high levels of VDRs present in the immune system are another indicator that the proper levels of Natural Vitamin D3 are a vital contributor to a strong and healthy immune system.
