Great comment.

You can never go wrong with exercise; that´s for sure.

But I wanted to comment in the activated Vitamin D. People with CKD get this form of vitamin D because their kidneys cannot build it (the last hydroxylation step occurs in the kidney). So, in theory, supplementing with regular Vitamin D3 could boost IQ and longevity.

Is this a proper excuse for me to enjoy the sun more every day?
Sure it is. Not only for this IQ and longevity thing, but for a myriad of health benefits[1]

The sun has made life possible in this planet and our body has evolved to use it for its own benefit.
