Thank you for your question! No, the Happylight does not help with Vitamin D production. We do not put any UV in the bulb, and UV is what our bodies use to produce Vitamin D. I hope this is helpful!

Vitamin D synthesis in the skin requires ultraviolet light, optimally in the 290-300 nm wavelengths (UVB). Most SAD lamps specifically filter UV light to avoid eye damage, and humans require UVB exposure over larger areas of skin than just the face. In general, I don't think SAD lights (with their UV filters) are the way to go.Tanning is the first thing that comes to mind, but I don't know if those lights produce the right wavelengths of light. Amazon sells Alzo-brand full spectrum light bulbs (unfiltered, I think) that *might* produce the right UV wavelengths, but you'd have to contact the company to check. Also, the lack of UV filter means a greater chance of eye damage.Hope that helps. Vitamin D synthesis in the skin requires ultraviolet light, optimally in the 290-300 nm wavelengths (UVB).

Yes, all UV-C products produce dangerous amounts of ozone! See: http://www.newton.dep.anl.gov/askasci/chem03/chem03323.htm

It also has Vitamin E. It is an excellent product and I use it everyday. It works great on scars!

You don't want sunscreen with vitamin A in it, it may contribute to tumor growth when applied to skin and exposed to sunlight. Retinol skin products should only be used at night.

I have used this product, and it raised the level of vitamin D3 in my body. I have regular blood tests given by my endocronologist. I have a myriad of deficiencies, and this product worked effectively on my body. I will likely buy it again once I use up this bottle. I also take an organic supplement for D3 (MegaFoods) as well.

Hi Timothy C. Kim, There are no detectable values of vitamin D in our krill oil. Oftentimes when vitamin D is present in a fish oil supplement, it has been added for additional benefits. Very rarely is vitamin D found in a krill oil product. Hope this helps answer your question, and if you have any other questions you can reach us by responding to this comment thread or by email at amazon@vivalabs.com.

This one specifically doesn't, but in it's label says: "for daytime sun exposure, use Avalon Organics Vitamin C Renewal Moisture Plus SPF 15"... maybe Amazon sells that one too :)

The package does not state that the product is fortified with any additional vitamins. The only additional information is that the product is Kosher certified. I hope this is helpful.

Here is the response from LensDirect.com: Yes they do provide 100% UVA and UVB protection.

You have to look carefully at the label. The product pictured here does not have the uva/uvb protection. But they have a very similar product that looks identical except it has an orange 50 (SPF) on the label and it does have the uva/uvb protection. I actually emailed the company to confirm they are still making it because it is getting harder to find.

In normal Vitamin-D there is a geletin which I want to avoid as a vegeterian. That's why I choose this product. I don't think any special advantage with that.

You can see a slight glow from the back of the unit. I use it in my bedroom at night, and it's not bright enough to keep me awake. I certainly wouldn't worry about the UV radiation.

No UV light is emitted from the RedMD. We include goggles which must be used with each treatment.
