A member asked:
Is it actually true that artificial tanning lights will promote the production of vitamin d in the body?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes but NO: This will increase your active d levels but do so with a significant risk of skin cancer well out of proportion to any potential benefit. If you want a safe tan get a spray tan and if you want vitamin d go for the pill supplements.
