@Hando-Jin the process of UV light turning the cholesterol in the skin into the precursor to vitamin D. Too much UV and not enough cholesterol synthesis in the skin will eventually deplete it.
Why not enough cholesterol synthesis is what I'm trying to understand. Has anybody answered that? I heard Ray say it was just down to age.
Age, stress, nutritional deficiencies. Most people are probably inefficient at replacing cholesterol in the skin. That's why topical lanolin is a blessing for not only supplying a substrate for vitamin D but to keep the skin youthful.
