Sunbathing is beneficial for kidney deficiency. If you experience knee soreness, cold hands and feet, you may have a condition of kidney yang deficiency, and regular sun exposure can be helpful. Sunbathing also aids calcium absorption and can help treat numbness in the limbs and muscle cramps. For symptoms such as insufficient kidney qi, fatigue, headache, and dizziness, sunbathing can help boost the body's yang energy. However, sun exposure should be moderate and not too prolonged.
