Article Synopsis
  • The work aims to establish equations connecting exposure time to solar radiation, the ultraviolet index (UVI), and their effects on vitamin D synthesis and sunburns.
  • It introduces PROBIT equations to predict how much vitamin D various skin types (I to IV) can produce based on repeated sun exposure and protective measures.
  • The findings suggest that balancing skin exposure can help achieve required vitamin D levels of 2000 IU or more while minimizing the risk of sunburn, particularly by adjusting the area of skin that is exposed.
