Did you know exercise can help protect your vitamin D levels—especially in winter?
A new study found that people who stayed active with regular cardio workouts prevented the seasonal drop in vitamin D that normally happens when the days get shorter.
Why does this matter?
Vitamin D supports bone health, immune strength, and mood.
Exercise may help mobilize vitamin D stored in fat, keeping levels more stable.
Even if the sun isn’t shining, movement can act like your own natural supplement.
Your winter wellness action plan:
- Stay consistent with exercise—walking, biking, or resistance training all count.
- Pair activity with nutrition + supplementation when needed.
- Ask your provider about testing your vitamin D.
Bottom line: Exercise is medicine—and it may help preserve the “sunshine vitamin” when you need it most.
