Guest guest Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 When getting your Vitamin D from the sun, there are a couple of things to remember > > > 1) If you are using sunscreen, you are blocking the Vitamin D ...AND putting toxins on your skin that are known to cause cancer. 2) The oils on your skin absorb the Vitamin D from the sun and if you shower when you come in from the sunshine, you are washing off the Vitamin D. It is best not to shower for about an hour after your exposure to the sun. >> Ok, so if I were to take Vitamin D, does anyone know how much Vitamin D one gets from sunshine? I'm living in the southwest and it's sunny every single day. Plus, I'm out in it for hours in a day. > > I watched the videos on it and thought the argument was quite convincing. Can one purchase Vitamin D3 from a regular health food store?> > Thanks again for everyone's help. Lilo> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 My understanding is that the sun uses the oils on your skin to make Vitamin D and this action continues after you are no longer in the sun. I couldn't swear to it at this point but I would want to know of this possibility if I didn't know of it already. I read of this phenomenon and it is not something I thought up myself.
