    How long do I have to be in the sun to get enough Vitamin D for the day?
    How long do I have to be in the sun to get the minimal amount of Vitamin D needed for the day?

    Also, does it matter on which part of my body the sun hits?

    And finally, if I wear Sun Block lotion to stop the sun from tanning me, will that prevent me from getting the Vitamin D from the sun?

    I am 19 and am a male! Thank you!

    Where? You could sit in the sun all day this time of year in Pittsburgh or for 10 minutes in Florida.
