Aretha Franklin: Mourned, R-E-S-P-E-C-T-E-D by Stars Everywhere

The Queen of Soul is no longer with us. On Thursday, August 16, arguably the greatest singer of all-time passed away when Aretha Franklin died of pancreatic cancer at her home in Detroit. You'd be hard-pressed to find a more respected and influential artist. It's as simple as that. Probably best known for her cover of Otis Redding’s classic Respect, as well as other hits such as “(You Make Me Feel Like) A Natural Woman,” and “Think,” Frankli received a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 1979. She was the first woman to be inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1987 and was named in 2010 by Rolling Stone as the best singer in history. In the wake of Franklin's passing, pretty much every star on the planet took to social media and sent their condolences, while a few also shared their personal memories and interactions with Franklin. Scroll down to see what they had to say… 1. Elton John 2. Diana Ross 3. Barbara Streisand 4. John Legend 5. Hillary Clinton 6. Hugh Jackman View Slideshow

Did you know that Vitamin D is really important for your general health, especially for African Americans, but most people are lacking it in some way. Sunlight is the best way to get Vitamin D, but with people spending less time outdoors than they have in the past, it’s not shocking that people need to step up their game and get more Vitamin D into their system. Why’s Vitamin D so important and what does it do for your body? The benefits of having lots of Vitamin D in your blood are: bone health, fighting multiple diseases, and lots of protection against heart attacks and strokes, as well as other things like immune system health. Some symptoms of not having enough Vitamin D are: chronic pain, fatigue, depression, and osteoporosis, just to name a few. The newest recommendation for Vitamin D consumption is 1,000 to 2,000 units daily, which is 5 to 10 times higher than previous recommendations due to the low ramifications being severe for not being sufficient. This is a health risk that should definitely have more focus in the news media, as it’s important to keep your immune system up to par and stay healthy, especially in the Summer heat!
