Sunbathing makes you smarter

New break trough from sun bathing (cooking vitamin D on the skin) that can booster your quality of thinking (brain).

Higher level of vitamins D, synthesized in the skin after being exposed to the sun and found in oily fish are associated with increased brain power among middle aged men according to a new British study. The link between increasing vitamins D and faster information processing was more significant in men aged over 60 years old, although the biological reasons for this, remains unclear. The study, conducted by researcher from the University of Manchester, in collaboration with the other European specialists, compared the cognitive performance of more then 3000 men between the age of 40 and 79 years. Men with the higher level of vitamins D performance consistently better in simple and sensitive neuropsychological test that assesses an individual‘s attention and speed of information processing the study showed.
