Three ways to protect oneself from the sun is;

1. Wearing sunscreen protection

2. Wearing sunglasses, long sleeves, and a hat

3. Getting outdoors before 10 am and after 4 pm when the sun rays are least strong

When sun rays hit the skin, a cascade of biochemical pathways is significant in the uptake of vitamin D from the gut. Vitamin D is important in the absorption of calcium and minerals into bone and making them strong. This prevents diseases such as rickets.
