Fall and winter darkness may affect health
‘ We‘ve reached the point in au-
tumn when many of us leave home
for work in the dark and return to our
homes in the dark.
We are not necessarily working
on special projects requiring early
mornings and late nights. That's just
how the seasons work in the Mid-
West.
What's your comfort level with
darkness? My family is all about liv-
ing in a bright, well-lit environment.
I feel like I live in a department store
because nearly every lamp, overhead
light and undercabinet light tends to
be "on."
In fact, I typically walk around
our home turning off lights in rooms
with no one present.
"Alexa" or some other electronic
helper is not attempting to maintain a
well-lit ambience in our home. My
family has the "lights on in every
room" habit.
I When I finish my rounds of see-
ing where everyone is and extin-
guishing light bulbs, the lights
already are back on in some of the
unoccupied rooms.
, Maybe my family is just messing
with me.
I was raised to save on power by
flipping off lights. My parents taught
me correctly, according to En-
ergy.gov.
' If you are going to be out of a
room for 15 minutes, you should turn
off the lights to save energy.
Somehow, I think this 15-minute
rule will be difficult to police in my
home.
I agree that artificial lighting
makes living spaces inviting. How-
ever, having access to natural light
can affect our mental and/or physical
health.
You may be aware of a condition
known as "SAD," or Seasonal Affec—
tive Disorder, which has symptoms
that appear in the fall and can be—
come more severe in the winter. A
person with SAD may feel de-
pressed, have low energy or trouble
sleeping, or experience changes in
appetite.
Be sure to discuss persistent SAD

provider to access appropriate treat—
ment. Special lighting and other in-
terventions are available.
Our lack of regular sunlight in the
Midwest can have other effects on
our health, too.
Without access to sunny days and
adequate food or vitamin supple-
ments, we may become "deficient" or
at least "insufficient" in vitamin D.
Vitamin D is known as the "sunshine
vitamin" because sun exposure
causes our skin to go into "vitamin D
manufacturing mode."
People in the northern US. are
more likely to be vitamin D deficient
than people in other parts of the
country, especially during October to
April.
For example, in a study of more
than 2,839 Women who had given
birth in a Michigan hosniral. 92.5%
had insufficient blood levels of Vita-
min D.
Vitamin D is produced in our
body by the action of sunlight on our
skin. The process also requires natu-
rally occurring conversions by the
liver and kidneys to become active.
In general, depending on where you
live and the color of your skin, get-
ting adequate vitamin D may take
only 15 minutes of sunlight exposure
in the summer and 30 minutes in the
winter.
Standing outside with bare arms
in the winter in North Dakota is not
advised, though.
Vitamin D is important in main—
taining strong bones and helping pre-
vent rickets, osteomalacia and
osteoporosis.
Vitamin D also has roles in im-
mune function and functioning of our
neuromuscular system. Some re-
searchers have linked vitamin D de-
ficiency to various forms of cancer,
heart disease, depression, chronic
Hatzenbuhler to serve as TR
Library Fundraising Director, retain
leadership of Medora Foundation
', (MEDORA, ND) — The Theodore
Roosevelt Medora Foundation (TR
Medora Foundation), in cooperation
with the Theodore Roosevelt Presi—
dential Library Foundation
(T RPLF), announced today that
Randy Hatzenbuhler will serve as the
Executive Director for Development
for the TR Presidential Library,
while continuing his role leading the
TR Medora Foundation as its Presi-
dent. He will join newly appointed
Chief Executive Officer, Edward
O’Keefe, for the next phase of this
historic project.
Hatzenbuhler, a Mandan native,
has worked for the TR Medora Foun-
dation for over 30 years and has been
part of raising over $60 million in
gifts that have further developed
Medora, the gateway community to
the Theodore Roosevelt National
Park. He began his time there work—
ing alongside the TR Medora Foun-
dation’s first president, Rod Tjaden,
and the organization’s founder,
Harold Schafer; Hatzenbuhler has
served as its President since 1997.
During his time in Medora, he has
been instrumental in leading growth
in tourism, fundraising, and physical
development in and around Medora.
The TR Medora Foundation
Board of Directors approved action
to collaborate with the TR Presiden—
tial Library by dedicating Hatzen-
buhler’s work to raising the funds
needed for the Library and Museum.
, Ed Schafer, former North Dakota
Governor and United States Secre—
tary of Agriculture, is the current
Chairman of the TR Medora Founda-
tion. He commented, “My dad,
Harold, loved ‘big things’ and he
loved working hard to make big ideas
a reality. Our family has committed
our resources and time for decades to
the place that so impacted Theodore
Roosevelt, who ultimately impacted
the world as President of the USA.
The Theodore Roosevelt Presidential
Library and Museum is abig idea for
North Dakota and for the nation. And
all of us at the TR Medora Founda—
tion are excited and committed to
help it become a reality.
“Randy has built a strong man-
agement team at the TR Medora
Foundation, so we are in a unique
position to have him focus his energy
on the Library and continue to pro-
vide our organization with strategic
leadership. He’s just one example of
how these two organizations can
work toward success together. That’s
great news and a good deal — for
the people of North Dakota, and all
the supporters of the Theodore Roo-
sevelt Presidential Library and Mu—
seum."
Schafer concluded, “We are
pleased the TRPLF has confidence in
the TR Medora Foundation to con-
tract with us to provide fundraising
leadership for this incredible proj-
ect.”
Hatzenbuhler noted, “It makes
sense to have our two organizations
work together because you get the
best of both worlds: national appeal
and local connection. This kind of in-
tegration will leverage TRMF’s five
decades of experience in the Bad-
lands, while connecting folks who
love Theodore Roosevelt to a place
he loved, as only his Presidential Li-
brary can.
TRPLF Chief Executive Officer,
Ed O’Keefe, remarked, “Medora has
always attracted dreamers and doers.
The Marquis built it, and TR.
claimed it in the 19th century;
Harold revived it in the 20th century,
and TRMF has made it a must—see
experience for the let century; and,
now, we will embark together to
make Medora a destination for the
22nd century and foreverrnore.
“In essentially loaning their most
valuable player, the Theodore Roo-
sevelt Medora Foundation has com-
mitted a selfless act in the best
interest of Medora, the state of North
Dakota, and this incredible project. I
have much to learn from Randy, and
look forward to working with him as
my partner in this audacious capital
campaign. I am personally grateful
to Chairman Schafer and the TRMF
Board for their generosity of spirit
and commitment to a collaborative
partnership.”
These two foundations will con-
tinue to operate as separate entities,
but this cooperative agreement for
fundraising leadership better posi-
tions the TRPLF to raise the neces-
sary funds. The TR Medora
Foundation and the TRPLF will con-
tinue to seek to maximize efficien-
cies and expertise in areas of
fundraising, administration and lead—
ership both working toward the
good of Medora and North Dakota.
pain, diabetes, high blood pressure
and other health issues, but the re-
searchers haven‘t established that the
lack of vitamin D causes the disease.
More research is needed.
In the meantime, when sunlight is
sparse, make efforts to get adequate
vitamin D all year through food or
supplements. The Food and Nutrition
Board recommends 600 international
units (IU) of vitamin D for ages 1 to
69 and 800 IU for people over the
age of 70. However, the Vitamin D
Council and the Endocrine Society
recommend higher daily doses.
Visit the National Institutes of
Health Office of Dietary Supple—
ments at https://ods.od.nih.gov/ to
learn more about dietary supple—
ments.
Check in with your health-care
provider about taking a vitamin D
supplement, particularly durin win—
ter months. Taking a vitamin sup-
plement certainly won't hurt you and
probably will help maintain your vi—
tamin D status. Stay within the limit
of supplementation recommended by
your health-care provider or pharma—
cisr.
New nutrition labels that include
the amount of vitamin D per serving
in foods will be appearing in 2020.
Some companies already use the new
format.
Unfortunately, few foods natu-
rally contain vitamin D in high
amounts. Fatty fish such as sword-
fish, salmon, tuna and mackerel are
among the best natural sources of vi—
tamin D. A 3-ounce portion of
cooked salmon, for example, has 447
IU. An egg has about 41 units of vi-
tamin D. Fortified foods, such as
milk and some types of orange juice
and cereal, have added vitamin D.
Here's an easy recipe featuring vi-
tamin D-rich salmon. Try it with
your other favorite fish.
