We don't get enough sun- and daylight on a day-to-day basis. Over a billion people worldwide are vitamin D deficient because of our indoor lifestyle and sun avoidance behavior. We spend most of our time inside and behind computers, tablets and television screens. This indoor lifestyle causes all kinds of health problems that can result in serious illnesses. Many people are having trouble sleeping, are anxious and stressed in this high demanding and fast-paced world.
