In the complex corporation of your body, there are many managers, but only one CEO. A top physician explains that this top job belongs to Vitamin D, a master hormone that sets the strategy for your overall health.
As the CEO, Vitamin D has executive control over more than 200 key “departments” (your genes). It makes the high-level decisions that direct your immune system’s security team and manage the morale of your entire organization (your mood).
When the CEO is “out of the office” due to a deficiency, the entire company suffers. Departments operate without clear direction, productivity (energy) drops, and the company becomes vulnerable to outside attacks (infections).
Trying to run this corporation on food-based Vitamin D is like trying to lead a company via a few scattered memos. The expert notes that diet provides a weak and insufficient leadership signal.
To ensure your health corporation has strong leadership, the physician advises going straight to the source of executive power: the sun. A daily 10 to 30-minute “board meeting” in the midday sun allows your body to produce the powerful CEO it needs to thrive.
