Seasonal Affective Disorder is cured by vitamin D.

What does that tell you about the importance of
getting some sun?

I did Ganz.... my dermatologist says there is nothing wrong with a tan and
that my maintaining a tan all year round is better than burning in
seasonally. Moderation is the key here... maintain a tan and don't burn.
It's the burn that damages your skin. I'm not saying nor have I implied that
constant extended exposure to solar radiation is healthy... just that having
an increased melanin content is not unhealthy. I have heard that sun
exposure is required for vitamin D... I'm not certain as to the validity of
that claim.
