What Dermatologists Tell Their Patients
“Vitamin D is essential for optimal health, and appropriate amounts of
vitamin D can be obtained through a healthy diet which includes
naturally enriched vitamin D foods, fortified foods and beverages and/
or vitamin supplements. Intentional exposure to UV [ultraviolet]
radiation from the sun (natural) or tanning devices (artificial) is
not a safe or effective way to obtain vitamin D.”

C. William Hanke, MD, FAAD
President of the American Academy of Dermatology
