Supplements: Vitamin D3, The Sunshine Vitamin
It seems that every day we learn more about the health-promoting affects of fat-soluble vitamin D. Known as the sunshine vitamin because we manufacture it in response to skin contact with UV sun rays, it’s one of the few vitamins our bodies can synthesize. Some researchers suggest we need up to 30 minutes of sun exposure between 10 AM and 3 PM at least twice a week to the face, arms, legs, or back without sunscreen for sufficient creation of vitamin D – making it a challenge for many people and raising concerns about skin photoaging and cancer.
