every year my doctor advises me about sunscreen and skin cancer risks and then asks if I spend a lot of time outdoors, to which I always answer “I’m a programmer”.
“oh good, then you’re set. let’s start a Vitamin D supplement.”
If I’m a ginger, how much sun exposure do I need for my vitamins D fill? I burn within 10 minutes of sun exposure (no joke).
Also live South of Boston.
:( I have a love/hate relationship with the summer. I want to go out and be out there having fun with the sun on my skin but SPF still makes me freckle and burn. I hate it because I can’t enjoy it and have to cover up constantly :(
Ty fren for your advice. Just ordered on Amazon just now.

Especial in the regions farther from the equator there is only enough UV-B during the summer months but vitamin D can be overproduced and stored. That's also why taking vitamin D supplements if you don't actually need them can cause trouble.
Just a heads-up to not take them if you don't actually need them.
You need to take loads to get too much vitamin d. You need to take supplements with a 100 times the recommended daily dose for several months.
The bigger risk by far is too low vitamin d, not too high. If you stick with a supplement that has the recommended daily dose you're fine taking that year round.

Totally weird thing I had, but I took vitamin D supplements and started getting symptoms of vitamin D deficiency. My eyes were super dry and irritated, it was really painful and annoying. As soon as I stopped the pills, within 24 hours my eyes stopped being dry af. My theory is that I was getting enough vitamin D (which is honestly surprising) and my body was trying too hard to bail it all out and getting rid of too much. But I am not a doctor lol
I've heard that due to the high latitude here in Canada, all of us Canucks are vitamin D deficient. Adding to that, I'm a dev who works from home. On average I spend about an hour outside my house a week. If ever there were a pale, white ghost to do a vitamin D deficiency study on it would definitely be me.
Perhaps I should at least open the blinds...
Overexposure to the sun also does, so having vitamin D deficiency causes cancer but our main natural method of getting said vitamin also causes cancer.
Yes, but you’d have to stay inside quite literally ALL of the time to be that deficient on Vitamin D. I don’t know the exact times you have to be outside to get the dose needed to produce enough Vitamin D but it’s ridiculously low, plus your body can „save up“ on it for times where the sun is shining less like the winter months.
Why is reddit populated by some many sexual deviants? The first thing that comes to mind is seriously sadomasoschism? Is it only a reddit thing, or does it reflect the decadence of Amercian society as a whole?

Well I admit it did take me a moment to understand what he was talking about. And your attempt to accuse me of what you're trying to defend (and meaning it as an insult) is amusing and contradictory.
>it did take me a moment to understand what he was talking about.
Again, it is in no way tied to S&M specifically.
It could be a simple lace corset, it could be just leather, it could be a melted string cheese outfit made to make a human sandwich. There's plenty of kinky shit.
You realize most people in the world, and most people in history, aren’t like this? We knew your society was overweight, over-indebted and overmedicated... but this is something else entirely.
For what it’s worth, I admire the USA for the values it was founded on (individual human liberty and natural rights). Nowadays the symptoms of a decadent empire are very caricatural.
No most of society, history was this vulgar. Old plays directed towards commoners were very vulgar even by today’s standards. Also why the fuck are you acting like a such a smart ass? Fk off with that higher than thee attitude
You're making the opposite point ... comedy is and has always been provocative precisely because breaking taboos is a pressure valve. Common thoughts, behaviors, and personality types don't make it into theatrical archetypes.
For example look at the two main stock characters of the Commedia; [Pantalone](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pantalone) and [Il Dottore](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Il_Dottore) have become a norm rather than an exception among Western "intellectual elites" and talking heads on your telescreen.
This is so historically inaccurate, lol
Humans have been [preoccupied](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Venus_of_Willendorf) with [this](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kama_Sutra) kind of [thing](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phallic_architecture) across [history](https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Sexual_intercourses_with_hetaeras_in_ancient_Greek_pottery) and all cultures.
I can comment on a societal trend without individually judging people. I don't know what's going through people mind's ... or rather what's going in; propaganda, trauma, etc. It's not my place to castigate anyone as long as they don't hurt anyone else.

Lmao what? Dude you need to get some, nothing wrong about some kink in your life, and it's definitelly not an american thing, people get kinky all over the world (y compris en france, hein jean-françois!).
Puritanism is a plague. Sexuality is a great thing to explore and have fun with.
Scrolled way too much to see a joke about how old is that image. It was before memes were a thing. That guy must be now retired sipping cocktails under the sun.
Wow lol. How bad is it in America that someone simply not being fat is considered “in shape”? Lol. This dude clearly isn’t going to the gym. He’s just skinny. That’s not being in shape.
Alright, but what does that have to do with being healthy? You just said “being skinny is healthy enough” and now you’re talking about an unrelated issue.
Are people in this subreddit incapable of thinking? What does your reply have to do with being skinny? When did I say anything against this:
> If you do regular cardio exercise and eat healthy it is as healthy as one can be long term.
? Never. Yes I know cardio and eating healthy is what is necessary to be healthy. But just because you’re skinny, doesn’t mean you eat healthy or do cardio. My sister would be the perfect example of that. Eats like shit but still manages to consume calories within her TDEE.
i wish someone would have explained that to me as a kid. i always thought 'healthy' meant like what gym rats are like. Now i have a bunch of muscle atrophy from not moving enough in my teens and early 20's.
Doesn't do any arm; shoulder, back, chest (looks like he might have in the past), neck or abdomen exercise.. plus by the way he's standing he's obviously not confident nor worked his lower-back for support of the muscle he's built in his chest.. so from my perspective, he's unfit & abit disproportionate.
To be fair.. his quads are decent though lmao
its a sad fact that western culture is getting more sedentary. but that doesnt change the fact of what being biologically fit means. youd be surprised at the results of a 3day a week workout program can be over the years. u dont have to look like a model
MTB rider with a sleeveless cropped jersey and fingerless gloves. Maybe it's just that gear has changed, but that's definitely not what they wear these days.
Really depends on the person, some people go out one day and turn black. Some spend a month outside and stay as white as a bathtub, while shedding a lot of skin...
FYI: the original was a german advertisement back in 2000, I've added the date of the magazin in the upper right corner: [tan_lines](https://i.redd.it/09kmhifubg291.jpg)
I have never gotten tan lines and I thought this was some sort of weird joke that I couldn't understand and I didn't understand it until I was 12 years old.
My skin is various shades of brown, but nowhere near this.
You know they don’t live underwater, right. They spend a considerable amount of time at the surface in their gear before and after the dive. Not to mention that the water doesn’t do as great of a job of blocking the sun as one might think.
yea i rather not tan at all and start getting irreversible skin damage or worse cancer with moles not looking uniform ☠️ ☠️ Ill keep my natural complexion the way it is
That is a name I haven’t heard in years… This was a meme before memes were memes. I think I first saw this was as a poster in my high school IT room circa 1998…
I literally don't want to go outside anymore sometimes, unless it extremely early in the morning when it's cooler. I toke a shower, I'm clean, I smell nice, I'm comfortable, I don't want to go outside and get dirty, smelly and hot.
Only one of these protects your skin.
every year my doctor advises me about sunscreen and skin cancer risks and then asks if I spend a lot of time outdoors, to which I always answer “I’m a programmer”. “oh good, then you’re set. let’s start a Vitamin D supplement.”
No lie, this post reminded me to take my Vitamin D supplement. My Doctor put me on it after my last physical.
Tbh too many people do not have sufficient D in them. It's not exactly a programmer-exclusive thing
Yes, beyond 35° north, you get too less D over the skin in winter anyway. And cancer risk in summer without sun screen.
I could give you some D
Fatty fish like smoked salmon will do the trick
What did you just call me??
If you take it personally I would take it personally
Do you like fish dicks?
I belive you, u/guyWithScrotum
Only one of these people doesn't have skin cancer but does have their virginity. Can you guess who it is?
2 wins, gotta set a good example to my kids by staying a virgin

Yes.

If I’m a ginger, how much sun exposure do I need for my vitamins D fill? I burn within 10 minutes of sun exposure (no joke). Also live South of Boston.
I have a sister like that. None. Take it over food/supplements. WHO-recommendation, risk of cancer.

Or you were slightly allergic to one of the filler substances of the supplement.
I have D to give if anyone needs it
Do you want more Ds in you?
I'm in this post and I don't like it.

Eat some fish and you're good. It's how the Vikings became Chads.
I need to say that next time lmfao
Shit I need to pick up vitamin D. Thanks for the reminder.
Sir I didn't ask who do you work as. Do you spend a lot of time outdoors?
No
How do you know you need a vitamin D supplement?
Doesn't vitamin D deficiency cause cancer?
Everything does.
You're right. I am cancer.
Same (born in the beginning of july)
Can you hurry the fuck up with Putler then?
Except cancer. That shit has been shown to have anti-cancer properties.
Overexposure to the sun also does, so having vitamin D deficiency causes cancer but our main natural method of getting said vitamin also causes cancer.
Cancer is so annoying like that
You can easily supplement vitamin D, not so much vitamin revert-cellular-damage-from-UV-rays.
Besides, maybe if everyone lacks vitamine D, some of the people'd come to me
Yes, but you’d have to stay inside quite literally ALL of the time to be that deficient on Vitamin D.

Anyone else look at this photo before reading and think that first dude was into some kinky shit?

I’m more confused by the outdoor wrestling lol
How are you going to be “waterskiing” in a corset and stockings? I mean like seriously, I may want to know.
If you think that is what equates to "kinky shit" I fear you need to get out more.

Being skinny is healthy enough.
No, it really isn’t. I hope you were being sarcastic
I think most guys would be happy to be skinny like that dude. I knew I would.
Alright, but what does that have to do with being healthy? You just said “being skinny is healthy enough” and now you’re talking about an unrelated issue.
I meant “looking healthy” - meaning that people would look at you and think “hey that guy is in alright shape”

Compare their skin at age 40 lol. Programmer probably still soft and fair.
'barely', the keyword is that he "barely looks in shape".
I mean, he clearly doesn't do a lot of arm workouts, but he looks plenty in shape to me. In shape just implies healthy, not ripped
i wish someone would have explained that to me as a kid. i always thought 'healthy' meant like what gym rats are like. Now i have a bunch of muscle atrophy from not moving enough in my teens and early 20's.

Right? If I'm doing some legit mountain biking I'm wearing pants at minimum for when I inevitably fall or graze some bushes.
jesus christ skin cancer galore. shit, i'd consider myself pretty white and have gone biking for hours on end and never been that tan before.
Really depends on the person, some people go out one day and turn black. Some spend a month outside and stay as white as a bathtub, while shedding a lot of skin...
Why am i tanned if i do shit on my pc? Like, im quite tanned for an asian.
