There are safer sources of vitamin D.
- ovao 8y agoTo this end, I strongly suggest checking your local UV index before heading outdoors for any extended period of time. I use an iOS app called UVLens (no affiliation), which displays your local UV index throughout the day and can give you an estimate of how long before you’ll burn (based on skin color, eye color, etc.) Provided you’re taking reasonable precautions, limited exposure to broad-spectrum UV is quite safe.
