Just finished commenting on the post about the failure of science. Can't help but comment here on a post about SAD. And I am by no means making light of things. I myself struggled with SAD while in college for a few years. It's no fun at all. That said, you know how I get through winter now? I live a lifestyle that is surprisingly similar to how my Northern European ancestors would have. And a big part of that is diet: 1. Seafood 2. Pastured animal meat/fat Along with being a software developer, I am also a hog breeder. If you raise animals, but especially hogs, on open pasture exposed to the sun, their lard becomes saturated in trace elements like vitamin D3 [1]. 1: http://www.vitamindwiki.com/%22Free+range%22+lard+has+500+IU+vitamin+D+per+teaspoon http://www.vitamindwiki.com/%22Free+range%22+lard+has+500+IU...
