Considering I truly avoided the sun, but upped my supplements - not only my weekly Maximum D3 with 13,000 iu… but a daily 2,000 iu D3 gummies. My D levels were okay at 48. But with sun closer to 80.

This week…I took full advantage of the Dallas sun at the resort pool every other afternoon.

And, because of lower cell turn over with rapamycin… my tan grows not only faster… but stays longer too.

@Agetron Lucky man. I walked in 45F (9am) sunshine and then 60F windy sunshine (3pm) yesterday. I got exposure on my legs and face only for about 1.75 hours. Today will be better I’m told.

I think my current Vit D level of 38 is fine as far as Vit D goes. I need more full spectrum sunshine. Taking more Vit D supplements to get higher Vit D is not be the right move for me. I need to get more sunshine or at least get outdoors more despite cold or rainy weather. It’s my own fault so I’ll fix it. Come on Summer!

I definitely think that sun exposure is physiologically important for vitamin D, retinal light exposure, infrared.

Quick 30 minutes shirtless morning around 7 am jogs when it warms up in Arizona feel great before work.
