Weather and POIS

[biliboo]

I get POIS more easily and lasting longer in the winter. What about you?

[Daveman]

Yeah, that's the same for me. We are coming into winter here and all the weather systems that pass aggravate everytihng.

As a amatter of fact, the end of the winter is the worse period. POIS episodes could last so long that I would not recover from an episode before the next one arrived. This made me think that vitamin D deficiency could be involved (cofactor?).

winter makes my pois worse as well, but i think it's the cold dry air that affects me and not so much the lack of sunlight.

The only logical reason for winter and longer pois that comes in my mind, is TO LESS OF VIT D !!

vit is 'made' by the body itself.  Needs sun or much daylight , in winter all people getting less vit D. vit D deficiency is related to prostata issues [cancer] and allergies. Google yourself, ok?

ask your doctor for a vitamin d test read my pois history in 'that familiar feel' for the minimal and maximum international standards of the results
