Frequently Asked Questions
What UV Index is required to synthesize Vitamin D?
UVB radiation (which triggers cutaneous Vitamin D synthesis) is typically only sufficient when the UV Index is 3.0 or higher.
How does skin phototype affect Vitamin D synthesis?
Melanin in darker skin phototypes acts as a natural UV filter, requiring 2 to 5 times longer sunlight exposure than lighter skin types to produce equivalent Vitamin D.
