Doesn’t sun tanning provide vitamin D?

Some people worry about vitamin D deficiency when using sunless-tanning products and staying out of the direct sunlight in an effort to protect their skin against the harmful rays of the sun. The scoop is the average person doesn’t need to be out in the sun that long to naturally get the recommended vitamin D amount. Depending upon genetics, skin colouring, region and climate, for example, one needs between five to 15 minutes of sun exposure daily around the middle of the day, three or four times during the week.
