Getting sun is awesome. Just be reasonable and dont over expose yourself, especially mid day sun. The key is moderate, daily exposure of skin without lotions on it blocking it. Your skin will adapt as the seasons change, you will have stronger immune systems, better mood, etc.
Being pale and then going for 4 hours at noon to the beach is trouble, build up to it or wear clothing to shade you. If you are naturally pasty and live in the tropics.. mmm . You are in trouble.
- mrfusion 5y agoI believe mid day sun is the best for producing vitamin d though.
- ripply 5y agoCorrect, the atmosphere will block the rays that cause vitamin d production so the best time to be exposed is around noon +/- a few hours when the sun is above you
