"Sensible sun exposure, especially between the hours of 10:00 am and 3:00 pm produces vitamin D in the skin that may last twice as long in the blood compared with ingested vitamin D.

In the box on the left side of the screen, look for "Altitude:"

The sun's altitude must be 50 degrees or higher to allow the vitamin D absorption affect.

At lower than 50 degrees, the sun's angle of incidence to the atmosphere bounces the good UV rays off.
