CHASING THE SUN: NEW SCIENCE OF SUNLIGHT

Our biology is set up to work in partnership with the sun. From our sleep cycles to our immune systems and our mental health, access to sunlight is crucial for living a happy and fulfilling life. Our sun exposure over a lifetime - even before we were born - may shape our risk of developing a range of different illnesses, from depression to diabetes. As more of us move into cities, we are in danger of losing something vital: our connection to the star that gave us life.
