Vitamin d - sun exposure

2025-09-01 07:41:43
I want to start doing morning walks so that I can naturally increase my vitamin d instead of depending on supplements. But I have some doubts and would love some guidance: 1. Im not someone who can wake up extremely early as im more of a night person. So what's the ideal latest time that I can wake up for the walk? 2. How long do I need to walk? Like minimum and maximum time? 3. When I walk do I need to expose skin like arms and legs so that the vitamin d is absorbed? Or is it okay if im fully covered? Im asking as im afraid of getting mosquito bites. 4. Follow up to previous question, if i do need to expose skin, can I put Odomos spray on myself before the walk? Or does that impact vitamin d absorption? 4. Is it ok to wear sunscreen when im doing the walk or does the sunscreen affect vitamin d absorption?

I completely understand your concern regarding the fact of overcoming VITAMIN D intake with morning walks rather than medications . It is a very bold step and this should be followed regularly . Let me put forth in points and address every concern you have 1. Vitamin D is maximally absorbed during early morning sun rays directly over bare exposure , so if you can't get up extremely early an ideal walk around 7-7:30 am can be considered . 2.A 30 min walk a day is more that sufficient. 3. You should expose your arms and if possible your legs during the walk for efficient vit D absorption 4. There are a minimal chances of getting mosquito bites when you walk in a garden during 7-7:30 am even if you feel scared it's ok if you use some roll ons rather than odomos sprays 5. Please don't use sunscreen as it decreases absorption Hope all your questions are addressed and all your doubts are relieved.

If you are diagnosed with vitamin d deficiency, better take medication rather than sunlight, as sunlight helps in metabolism of vitamin d not formation.
