Based on the subject matter, I will again have to ask: are people in Japan supplementing vitamin d3? Seeing as most people tend to avoid the sun to keep their skin fair they would be missing out on that vital radiation that allows the body to manufacture the hormone we call vitamin d3. I keep asking this question because one of the many benefits of vitamin d3 is the neurological uplift of your mental state and mood. Vitamin d3 is also something a lot of people are deficient in. It would be interesting to see if any studies have been carried out to see just how much vitamin d3 is consumed with the Japanese diet.

@Trinity M this is why I am asking. Because really most of the stuff I hear about why people go hikkomori mode depends on their state of mind when dealing with what ever triggers that instinct, I am asking if people have all the tools to deal with that stuff, for me taking vitamin d3 regularly changed the way I view the world. I sleep better and my mood is always elevated. When you are in a positive state of mind you will rarely venture down mental paths of dark thoughts and whatever else. A trend I noticed in almost all hikkomori cases is that the majority are depressed, so they mostly go undiagnosed for years at a stretch. We gotta ask these questions man, what's going on simply isn't right.

@yukiosakura4969 it is vital enough that the human body produces vitamin d3 from it. That very hormone that is responsible for more than a hundred catalytic reactions in the body? Yeah it's pretty important for sure my dude.

@yukiosakura4969 it is in moderate doses. If your skin is pale you only need 15 to 20 minutes of direct sunlight to get your daily vitamin d3 needs met. The more melamin in your skin the more time you need to absorb the radiation to produce the stuff. Africans have the highest skin melanin concentration so they need more sunlight exposure to get their needs met. However they can never get sun burn due to the melanin protection which is pretty awesome actually.
