Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), also known as winter depression, is a mood disorder which affects individuals during the winter months each year.
Seasonal mood variations are directly related to sunlight.
Granted Boston isn't a frigid arctic region, the city only gets approximately 7 hours of light per day. The American Association for Cancer Research announced that vitamin D (a nutrient our body absorbs from the sun) is associated with improved survival of lung cancer patients. Who knew?!
For now, pack up your sweaters, and store away the ski's, and don't be SAD because lemonade is the new hot chocolate. It's spring!
