Based on your profile pic where we can see that you already burnt you nose, maybe it's a good idea to stay indoors and soak up some blue light instead of risking more skin damage. Your skin will definitely thank you. btw you only need 10-30mn of sun exposure to get vitamin D

Wrong. Your cosmetic intuition does not correlate with health. Sunlight doesn’t cause melanoma either. You won’t be able to find me a melanoma autopsy with high Vitamin D which you think they’d have from “too much” sun. But their bodies have many other dysregulation problems probably due to disconnection with nature and blue light toxicity. If you think humans should hide from the fireball mammals have evolved with for millions of years that is responsible for the ENTIRE food web, idk what to tell you.
The idea that we are the descendants of people who were in the sun 10-30 minutes per day just does not make any sense. Nor does it make sense that we spent most of our time outdoors for nearly all of human evolution and now - suddenly - minimizing sunlight is essential for our health.
Today's science shows (probably quite elegantly) how we convert sunlight on the skin into vitamin D. We don't know what tomorrow's science will show, but I think it's pretty much a given that reducing something as fundamental as sunlight to a single beneficial compound (that we've identified in the lab) is absurd.
