Sunlight is the primary source of vitamin D which helps us absorb calcium for stronger, healthier bones. But sun produces invisible rays called ultraviolet-A (UVA) or ultraviolet-B (UVB) rays that can cause skin damage, eye damage, immune system suppression and skin cancer. So don't spend much time in sunlight
