Sun Care Decoded: New Sun Care eBook Tells How Sunscreen Can Block Vitamin D Production in Your Body

Sunshine is the best source for Vitamin D. Unlike dietary supplements that contain Vitamin D, the body handles sunshine a little bit differently. From the sun, the body only absorbs exactly the required amount of vitamin D and de-metabolizes any extra. This has led many vitamin D experts, as well as many health groups, to now advocate 2,000 IU of vitamin D daily.

Due to the fact that supplementary vitamin D may cause the body to over-process of calcium, sunlight is the safest and most natural source of vitamin D. In Chapter 7 of Sun Care Decoded, Michael Russ talks about Vitamin D and how some sunscreens affect your Vitamin D intake.

The information in Sun Care Decoded is provided in a simple and easy to understand question and answer format. This makes it easy to remember and to merge with our daily lives. The best part is it answers a variety of questions that few people have thought to ask.

Other than how sunscreen affects the intake of vitamin D, Sun Care Decoded also touches on how antioxidants help prevent sunburn and early skin aging, how to determine your skin’s tolerance for sunlight and even what kind of sunscreen to use.

Sun Care Decoded clears up many of the myths and misconceptions of the sun and how we view it. It is a groundbreaking new book that allows you to approach sun exposure with a better understanding of how the sun affects your daily life and how you can plan on utilizing the sun’s power in a safe way, free of any fear of repercussions.

Available for download on Amazon.com, this book is one of the best references to help you best take advantage of all that the sun has to offer our skin and maintaining your own optimal health as well as the health of the environment. 

November 2nd is Vitamin D Awareness day. According to most doctors and scientists, approximately a third of all the people in the world are Vitamin D deficient and some believe that this is an even greater percentage. Sun Care Decoded and VitaminDday.com are two great online sources for Vitamin D exposure.
