How Much Sun is Needed for Vitamin D Production?

Your body needs vitamin D to stay healthy, like keeping your bones strong.

The sun helps your body make vitamin D, but too much sun can be harmful.

Experts suggest short sun exposure, about 10 minutes at midday, with some skin showing during spring and summer.

Always wear sunscreen to protect your skin from damage.

Too much sun can cause sunburn, eye problems, and skin cancer.

So, balance sun exposure to get enough vitamin D without hurting your skin.
