A member asked:

I have vit. d diffesensy, now i take 2 vit. d capsul a day but l am going on holiday so ill be a lot of time under the sun .should i still take it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes.: Continue the capsules until your vitamin d blood test is normal. A lower dose can then be taken. Too much sun without sunscreen can cause skin cancer. However sunscreen blocks vitmamin d production in the skin.
