Going into the sun to obtain vitamin D has a favourable side effect. That effect is that you just feel better. Every one just feels better if the sun is shinning, but we believe the effect maybe related to endorphins release in the skin. Just keep in mind that if you are a older guy ( above fifty years old) you may not be efficient making vitamin D in your skin. It is quite possible that getting to a optimum blood level is only achievable with supplements. Also everyone should know that in northern latitudes the sun is to low to make vitamin D durring seasons other than summer. Everything slows down as you get older. Sorry.

On October 22nd, PubMed released a new feature called PubMed Commons. This will allow users to comment on published abstracts on the PubMed website, although it is in its very early stages.
For now, only a select group of researchers and their invited guests can use the system. But soon any PubMed author will be allowed to comment under his or her real name.
For the current pilot testing phase there is a limited facility for joining that may work for you. Several organizations have provided lists of approved author e-mail addresses. If you are included on the list, you can request an invitation to join. Additional options for joining will be provided in future releases.
