Rainy Day Research

Low vitamin D levels and depression linked in young women
OSU researchers found that young women with lower levels of vitamin D were more likely to have clinically significant depressive symptoms over the course of a five-week study, lead author David Kerr said. The results were consistent even when researchers took into account other possible explanations, such as time of year, exercise and time spent outside.
Yah, of course.  But I like this bit...
 Kerr's study focused on young women in the Pacific Northwest because they are at risk of both depression and vitamin D insufficiency. 
Heh.  I'll say.   Rhinitis too...
