Vitamin D. Sunlight. Skin health.
This conversation deserves more nuance than we’ve been given.
For years, we’ve been taught to fear the sun above all else —
to block, cover, avoid — without ever asking what biology actually needs.
The research tells a more balanced story:
✨ Higher Vitamin D levels are associated with better immune surveillance
✨ Better outcomes in skin health — including melanoma prognosis.
This does not mean reckless sun exposure.
It does not mean ignoring skin type or burn risk.
It does mean remembering that humans are solar-powered beings.
That sunlight is information.
And that health is built through balance — not extremes.
Wrinkles be damned.
Fear-based wellness helps no one.
Just biology, supported with intention.
