The people of Greece have figured a lot of things out when it comes to knowing how to live a happy, healthy life. It makes sense–Greece is the birthplace of Hippocrates, the father of Western medicine. Have you ever been to Greece?

Are you getting enough vitamin D? Probably not. Would you feel any symptoms if you had low levels? Nope. Does it matter? Big. Fat. Yes. I have covered this topic before. But it’s so near and dear to my heart that I think it warrants a re-visit. Over on my blog on Yummy Mummy Club, […]
