Since there is no real explanation, how and if vitamin D helps in depression, however, the research by Vitamin D Council showed that low vitamin D level is found in folks with depression.

Splash some yellow color
Color can not only add boldness to an interior space, but it can also reshape your attitude. Vrije Universiteit in Amsterdam did research and found out that yellow color makes us happy. However, this color usually makes happy only adults. There is a chance that yellow will make your baby cry even more!
