Yes we can survive without the sun, but the quality of life without sunshine would be very bad. Most people know just how important it is to get vitamin A and vitamin D on a regular basis. Without vitamins A and D, to process calcium in our bodies, we would develop extremely fragile bones which if deprived long enough of these vitamins, could lead to such brittle bones that even a very small misstep or a simple fall could cause our bones to shatter. Vitamins A and D are not found in our food as readily as other vitamins such as vitamin C. So it is very important that we spend a short time each day in direct sunlight, even if only for 10 minutes. Here is an interesting fact, "when the military submarine was created and began to be used regularly during war times, men would spend many days or even months underwater without sunlight, because of this, the crew members would develop scurvy, brittle bones and even Rickets disease.

Most people cover themselves in suntan lotion to block the suns harmful rays, but what a lot of people do not know is that the suntan lotion also blocks the vitamins A and D from the sun, so make sure to spend a least a few brief moments in natural sunlight without lotion or at the very least, buy yourself a vitamin A and D supplement tablets which will give you the precious Vitamin A and D we all need to live a normal, healthy life.
