We get Vitamin D only because of sunlight. In such a situation, it is also called the 'sunshine' vitamin. Getting Vitamin D is very important for the human body to stay healthy. Vitamin D contains many nutritional elements that protect the body from many diseases. In such a situation, you must have understood how important Vitamin D is.

We have spoken to DrPriyaVerma working at NMCH, Patna regarding Vitamin D. She has told us some important things on this subject. Let's find out.

How is Vitamin D made?

When the skin is exposed to sunlight, the process of vitamin D production starts in the body. In such a situation, we are not able to get Vitamin D properly during cold days. People who are deficient in the amount of Vitamin D in their body, their bones become weak and thin.

Requires direct contact with the skin

You do not get Vitamin D properly from the sunlight coming from the window glass. This is not told by us but by our expert DrPriyaVerma. They say that a person needs direct contact with the skin to get all the benefits of vitamin D.

Why does sunlight irritate?

Many people do not come in contact with the sun directly because they get jealous of sunlight. However, if the sun starts burning your skin, know that it is not the right time. In such a situation, you should immediately move away from the sunlight. Experts say that radiation is harmful to us.
