This week, British Columbia announced that we will move to permanent daylight saving time after the clock change on March 8… meaning this will be the last seasonal clock shift for the province. 🕰️
While most conversations about the change focus on convenience or sleep schedules, there’s another interesting piece of the puzzle that doesn’t get talked about enough: sunlight and hormone health.
Sunlight is one of the most important natural sources of vitamin D, a nutrient that plays a key role in immune health, metabolism, and reproductive hormones.
And for many women, this connection matters more than you might think.
Research has found that vitamin D levels are often lower in women with PCOS, and deficiency may be linked to insulin resistance, hormone imbalances, and metabolic changes associated with the condition.
Vitamin D also influences processes like ovulation and testosterone regulation, which are central to hormone balance in PCOS.
So when we talk about sunlight, we’re also talking about a key signal for our hormones.
Next week, we’re diving deeper into this topic:
✨ How vitamin D impacts PCOS
✨ Why deficiency is so common in Canada
✨ What you can do to support healthy levels year-round
Stay tuned, this is a conversation every woman should know about. 🤍
