The Link Between UVB Light and Immune System
1:07:45 - 1:23:30 (15:45)
Accessing sufficient UVB light during winters can enhance the functionality of the spleen and activate the sympathetic nervous system to keep our immune system sharp and combat infections. Even cloud-covered days provide far more light energy than artificial indoor light sources.
