HOʻOMAʻAMAMA MĀLAMALAMA
Hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia i kēlā me kēia manawa, me ka pō.
Hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia i loko o ka hale, me ka mālama pilikino.
ʻO ke kumukūʻai mua a me nā kumukūʻai uila
ʻAno kukui olakino
Hiki ke hoʻololi ʻia ka ikaika
ʻAʻohe kukui UV ʻino
ʻAʻohe wikamina D
Hiki ke hoʻomaikaʻi i ka hana ikehu
Hoʻemi nui i ka ʻeha
ʻAʻole ia e alakaʻi i ka ʻili ʻana o ka lā
Lā Kūlohelohe
ʻAʻole loaʻa mau (ke aniau, ka pō, a pēlā aku)
Loaʻa ma waho wale nō
Kūlohelohe, ʻaʻohe uku
ʻO ke ʻano kukui olakino a maikaʻi ʻole hoʻi
ʻAʻole hiki ke hoʻololi ʻia ka ikaika
Hiki i ke kukui UV ke alakaʻi i ka hōʻino ʻili a me nā mea ʻē aʻe
Kōkua i ka hana ʻana o ka wikamina D
Hoʻemi iki i ka ʻeha
Alakaʻi i ka ʻili ʻili o ka lā
He mea hana ikaika a maʻalahi hoʻi ka hoʻōla kukui ʻulaʻula, akā ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi ma mua o ka hele wale ʻana i waho i ka lā?
Inā ʻoe e noho ana i kahi ʻāina ao a ʻākau me ka ʻole o ke komo mau ʻana i ka lā, a laila he mea maʻalahi ka hoʻōla ʻulaʻula - hiki i ka hoʻōla ʻulaʻula ke hoʻopiha i ka nui haʻahaʻa o ka mālamalama kūlohelohe i loaʻa. No ka poʻe e noho ana i nā wahi wela a i ʻole nā wahi ʻē aʻe me ka loaʻa ʻana o ka lā ikaika i kēlā me kēia lā, ʻoi aku ka paʻakikī o ka pane.
Nā ʻokoʻa nui ma waena o ka lā a me ke kukui ʻulaʻula
Loaʻa i ka lā kahi ʻano ākea o ka mālamalama, mai ke kukui ultraviolet a hiki i ka infrared kokoke.
Aia i loko o ka spectrum o ka lā nā nalu olakino o ka ʻulaʻula a me ka infrared (e hoʻonui ai i ka hana ikehu) a me ke kukui UVb (e hoʻoulu ai i ka hana ʻana o ka huaora D). Eia nō naʻe, aia nā nalu i loko o ka lā e hōʻino nui ʻia, e like me ka uliuli a me ka poni (e hōʻemi ana i ka hana ikehu a hōʻino i nā maka) a me UVa (e hoʻoulu ai i ka wela o ka lā/ʻeleʻele o ka lā a me ka photoaging/kane ʻaʻai). Pono paha kēia spectrum ākea no ka ulu ʻana o nā mea kanu, ka photosynthesis a me nā hopena like ʻole ma nā pigments i nā ʻano like ʻole, akā ʻaʻole pono nā mea a pau no nā kānaka a me nā mammals ma ke ʻano holoʻokoʻa. ʻO kēia ke kumu e pono ai ka sunblock a me nā sunscreens SPF i ka lā ikaika.
He ʻano lahilahi a kaʻawale ke kukui ʻulaʻula, ma kahi o 600-700nm - he hapa liʻiliʻi o ka lā. ʻO ka infrared hana olaola mai 700-1000nm. No laila, ʻo nā nalu o ke kukui e hoʻoulu ai i ka hana ikehu ma waena o 600 a me 1000nm. ʻO kēia mau nalu kikoʻī o ka ʻulaʻula a me ka infrared he mau hopena maikaʻi wale nō me ka ʻike ʻole ʻia o nā hopena ʻaoʻao a i ʻole nā mea ʻino - e hoʻolilo ana i ka lāʻau lapaʻau kukui ʻulaʻula i ʻano lāʻau lapaʻau hopohopo ʻole i hoʻohālikelike ʻia me ka ʻike ʻana i ka lā. ʻAʻole pono nā kirīmi SPF a i ʻole nā lole pale.
Hōʻuluʻulu manaʻo
ʻO ke kūlana kūpono loa, ʻo ia ka loaʻa ʻana o ka lā kūlohelohe a me kekahi ʻano lāʻau lapaʻau kukui ʻulaʻula. E kiʻi i ka lā inā hiki, a laila e hoʻohana i ke kukui ʻulaʻula ma hope.
Ua aʻo ʻia ke kukui ʻulaʻula e pili ana i ka ʻā ʻana o ka lā a me ka wikiwiki ʻana i ka ho'ōla ʻana o ka pōʻino o ka radiation UV. ʻO ia hoʻi, he hopena pale ko ke kukui ʻulaʻula i ka pōʻino o ka lā. Eia nō naʻe, ʻaʻole e hoʻoulu ke kukui ʻulaʻula wale nō i ka hana ʻana o ka huaora D i loko o ka ʻili, kahi āu e pono ai ka lā.
ʻO ka loaʻa ʻana o ka lā palena iki no ka hana ʻana o ka wikamina D, i hui pū ʻia me ka lāʻau lapaʻau kukui ʻulaʻula i ka lā hoʻokahi no ka hana ʻana o ka ikehu cellular paha ke ala palekana loa.
