[quote=Anonymous]There was a great article in Scientific American a few weeks back about the health benefits of UV exposure. They suspect some of the research showing the benefits of Vitamin D may have accidentally roped in the positive effects from sunlight itself (separate from its relation to Vitamin D). If I remember right, the goal is about 15 minutes. Certain lamps can be used if sun exposure is a concern — I don’t remember the specifics on that, but it’s in the article if anyone is interested. They already use the lamps for certain skin conditions and now are studying them as possible treatments for Multiple Sclerosis. The article talks a bit about the science behind why sunlight might be beneficial, but I’m no scientist so will refer anyone interested to the article for that bit. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/surprising-ways-that-sunlight-might-heal-autoimmune-diseases/ [/quote]
