18.01.2022 TAKE A BREATHER THIS ASTHMA WEEK A rich source of Vitamin D comes from the sun, and there is growing interest and research into the potential role of Vitamin D ...in asthma management. There is currently not enough evidence to recommend Vitamin D supplementation as part of usual #asthma care, however, being outdoors is great for your immune system and overall health and wellbeing. So today, knock off 30 minutes early for a walk or if you are at home take time, enjoy your outdoor space and bask in the glorious sunshine. Just remember to be SunSmart. https://bit.ly/2YGQfMg #AsthmaWeek2020 #TakeABreather #VitaminD
