Here We Go!

Ok! So I have been thinking about starting a blog for a while now! I hope my blog will be able to provide some great health tips and also update my family and friends on our little family! Everyone is always getting on me about not sending out more pictures and updating everyone on the Godfrey's, so I figured this way you can learn a little and be able to see into our lives (just a tad)!


Please no that you might not agree with every post I make. I am pretty passionate about what I do and feel strongly about making America healthier for the next generations :) Feel free to respond with any questions or concerns that you might have. I am always open to the way others might see things!

Today is the first day of my Spring Break and boy what a day it was! We spent most of the day outside running around and breathing in fresh air and soaking up sunshine, which brings me to my first piece of health advice. Vitamin D! What a great drug it is :) Did you know that it is now recommended to get 30 minutes of sunshine each day and that is without sunscreen. The only rules are do not go out during the hottest time of the day (midday). Studies are showing that we are so good about putting our sunscreen on, that most American are actually lacking in Vitamin D. Vitamin D is proven to help prevent various types of cancers and also elevates serotonin levels. So get outside and soak up that sunshine this weekend!
