ORMOND BEACH, Fla., May 3, 2011 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Recent research and findings have launched vitamin D to the forefront of overall human health. A device that enables the user to identify when they have spent enough time in the sun to attain their daily vitamin D absorption --without the risk of sunburn--is now available from Florida-based SkinHealth Technology, LLC.
Simple to use and the size of a postage stamp, these patented sensors answer the illusive question "how much is enough sun?" and appear poised to become a necessity for anyone who desires to obtain vitamin D naturally --from the sun itself. There is currently nothing else like them, on the market, to help people achieve a balanced routine of sun exposure and sun protection for better health.
Dr. Michael Holick, PhD, MD, -- the world's leading authority on vitamin D -- recommends the Natural Vitamin D UV Activation Sensors in his new book The Vitamin D Solution. Holick lists the sensors as one of the resources he suggests for supporting good health.
The self-adhesive Natural Vitamin D UV Activation Sensors changes color (yellow to red) based on exposure to a specific spectrum of UVB light. When the sun disappears, optimal vitamin D development has taken place and it is time to apply sunscreen or seek cover. (The color-change process of the sensor is depicted below.)
Founded in 2008, SkinHealth Technology, LLC, an R&D based development company which formulates advanced dermatological, therapeutic skincare products. The four principals of the company include a prominent dermatologist, an innovator in the sun care industry, and a former Vice President of Research & Development for a major skin care company.
