Vitamin D Levels and Skin
Factor #1: Usage of Sunscreen: In order for cutaneous Calcitriol (Vitamin D), it requires UVB rays from sunlight. Consequently, sunscreens that block the sun’s UVB radiation also stop your skin from creating Calcitriol (Vitamin D). This is an important factor to keep in mind, especially because sunscreen protects us from the sun’s damaging effects, including premature skin aging and skin cancer.
