With summer on the way, you’ll probably be wearing more sunscreen in the coming months. While it’s important for everyone to wear sunscreen when enjoying the sun, it’s also important to know what the right sunscreen is for you.

No matter what you’re doing outside, remember to wear sunscreen to protect yourself from sunburn and skin cancer.

That might make you wonder: Does wearing sunscreen interfere with vitamin D levels and potentially cause vitamin D deficiency? Vitamin D deficiency versus skin cancer riskVitamin D is synthesized in skin when it's exposed to UVB wavelengths from the sun. As far as getting enough vitamin D, Lim recommends taking a daily multivitamin, which typically contains an amount of vitamin D that would provide adequate blood levels of the vitamin. Vitamin D supplements can also help, and are very effective for those who have low vitamin D levels, Farris added. In addition to vitamin D supplements, the American Academy of Dermatology recommends getting vitamin D from a healthy diet that includes foods naturally rich in vitamin D, such as salmon, tuna, sardines, cod liver oil, and egg yolks, or foods and beverages fortified with vitamin D, such as cereals, yogurt, milk and orange juice.
