| The only radiation which is important when considering 1,25-D generation is radiation that carries considerable energy with it. For a given intensity of radiation, UV is the most energetic. The energy falls off with increasing wavelength (towards visible and IR). There still is enough energy for individuals with Th1 disease to sense, and be affected by, in hot plates and direct-radiation saunas, but lower intensities of IR energy do not cause any problems. The important characteristic of IR energy is that it cannot be seen. | The only radiation which is important when considering 1,25-D generation is radiation that carries considerable energy with it.

| Ordinary window glass can block the UV wave lengths of invisible light, but it cannot block either the visible wave lengths of light nor can it block the IR wave lengths of invisible light. This effect is most noticeable when one feels the warmth of the sun's rays on the skin through the windows of a car, even if the windows are tinted, because some of the wave lengths can still penetrate the car windows. Window films, even those that claim to shield from UV and IR, that allow visible light to penetrate are not enough protection. Bright surfaces, like snow, concrete and sand, reflect UV light and can nearly double the amount that gets to the skin and eyes. | Ordinary window glass can block the UV wave lengths of invisible light, but it cannot block either the visible wave lengths of light nor can it block the IR wave lengths of invisible light.
