Which vitamin does one get from sunlight?
Correct answer: D

dollis1963, we need a certain amount of sun exposure. you'll find a few years down the track the medical profession will be telling us they were wrong about covering up all the time in the sun, like they were wrong about eggs, full fat dairy, which they now say protects the heart! take what 'experts' say with a pinch of salt!

JonboysTrivia, read a little bit more dear. Autoimmune disorders which are linked to vitamin D deficiencies, like multiple sclerosis, are found at increased rates the farther you get from the equator and in those with decreased sun exposure.
(It only takes 10-15 minutes of sunlight a day to increase vitamin D production, which is not enough for most people to burn or to increase their risk of skin cancer.)

I live in New Zealand. half an hr in sun WITH NO SUNBLOCK= REALLY BAD SUNBURN and eventually an increased risk in melanoma. you can still absorb vitamin D with the use of sunscreen. Vitamin D also helps reduce depression. #everything in proportion

the sun doesnt give vitamin d. it helps with production of the vitamin with the skin.

Fandango40011, Arizona, with sunlight most of the year, has one of the highest rates of vitamin D deficiency because Dr’s there tell everyone to cover up.

A little bit of sun...
Never hurt anyone!

I think the lack of it also can cause or contribute to depression🤷🏾♀️

Player lilith666, Unless one's body cannot absorb artificial D, then sunlight, safely done in short, daily increments, is best.

Tanya, I also have autoimmune disease an my dr wants me to keep my D3 levels up around 60 ppm. this has really helped me. Soft hugs.

I got so sick because I was very low in vitamin d

For pete's sake, hire a proofreader! Or, at least, hire someone who's familiar with English.
mimi
Player #2469460, I thought that. My doctor has my take 3000iu each day. 20 minutes sun on the back is all most need.

Fandango40011, Probably true! speaking as someone who had skin cancer before (stage 1a, all good now), I'd recommend strict adherence to factor 50 suncream though!
Mishu
sun gives photons, not vitamin d lol. our skin layers turn those into vitamin d. sunlight is energy in the form of heat and light.
Gowtham
whose body is rich in vitamin D ?

Fandango40011, scientists say something and a few years later they say the opposite. Swings and roundabout, so take the middle path.
Player #70954470
the sun helps process the vitamin D.

Is that a close picture of the sun? It’s either I get a full dose of Vitamin D or get cooked 😂

Just take a walk around the park or neighborhood for half hour. Anyhow stay active and go outdoors will do much good.
Player #51716368
I wonder if there's an effective treatment option for those with conditions that prevent exposure to natural sunlight i.e. severe skin conditions, extreme autoimmune deficiencies, even extreme cases of anxieties and phobias that might prevent one from going outside or sitting near a window?

yes mene ye bhi shi answer kiya
Bye bye 👋
Egg is also a source of vitamin D

And that’s why vampires don’t have much vitamin D

Jenicorn292625, I think you might find that "sunblock" is full of carcinogens.

Not from sunlight actually. But sunlight can stimulate our skin to produce Vitamin D.
Harry8055
we dont get vitamin D from sunlight but our skin can synthesize Vitamin D in presence of sunlight
Player #32549118
This explanation is far too opinionated, you can wear sunscreen but also can wear protection like hats and clothes and ovoid harmful rays but still absorb vitamin D. When you go to very hot countries people take sun stroke very seriously and ovoid the hot sun if they can. I’m from the UK but know it’s become a stereotype of us British, as soon as it gets really hot we go out in shorts and nothing else and get sun burnt. In very hot countries it’s more normal to cover up in long sleeved white clothes and head scarves - well the hot countries I’ve been to anyway.

Vit D is in fact a hormone. Please don't be afraid to supplement if you are deficient. Take large doses of vit D with K2mk7 (prevents calcium deposits in arteries and kidneys), supplememt Magnesium as well as a lot of it is used up by the body to convert vit D. Take D after a meal with a spoon of good oil (it's oil soluble). And by large doses I mean 10000-20000 IU for a couple of months. Don't listen to the doctors, there has been thousands of trials and researches on vit D and it's proven to be safe and crucial for our body to function

Wow, you learn something new every day with this game. If sun exposure can rid someone of depression, when I get out of hospital I’ll be sunbathing much more often.

If it helps depression, I’d rather have sunburn! Off to a sunny place I go.

y'all here really talk in bout the sun when doesn't even bother me at all🤣🤣

mermaidmessiah,
You only need about 15 minutes
Player poopiepoo
You don't technically get vitamin d from the sun, rather your body synthesizes it in sunlight
Player #3.14159
Fandango40011, They tell us to cover up when our shadow is shorter than is, but that's the only time UVB rays can penetrate the atmosphere and help us make vitamin D.
Player #2929570
The vitamin D doesn't actually come from the sun's rays but you do need the sun to help your body process and use the vitamin D you get from food.

Sunbathing even for 30 minutes can be dangerous.
anChie
The sun does not give you Vit D, rather the UV rays from the sun allow certain forms of Vit D to be converted into their useable forms in the skin.

Fandango40011, actually dairy is not that good for you
