Manage episode 505333663 series 3675404
Think you’re getting enough vitamin D just from the sun? Think again.
In this myth-busting episode, we dive into the most common misconceptions about vitamin D, from sunscreen blocking absorption to whether Vitamin D supplements really work and if sun exposure is enough (spoiler: it usually isn’t).
Learn the truth behind vitamin D metabolism, the impact of UVB rays, and why timing your sun exposure matters more than you think. We also cover why vitamin D has a short half-life, what kind of supplements actually work, and why even multivitamins might not be cutting it.
🧠 In this video, we answer:
- Can you get enough vitamin D from the sun?
- Does sunscreen block vitamin D production?
- Do tanning beds help with vitamin D?
- Are all vitamin D supplements effective?
- Do you only need vitamin D in winter?
- Why does vitamin D affect more than just your bones?
🔍 Featuring insights like Professor Emilian Moan’s findings on UV exposure and melanoma risk, and critical facts on vitamin D’s half-life, this is your go-to video for understanding the real science behind vitamin D.
