Have you ever heard of vitamin D referred to as the "sunshine vitamin?" There's a reason it's called that. Very few foods are naturally rich in vitamin D, so exposure to ultraviolet rays via sunshine is the number one source for natural vitamin D.
So what exactly are vitamin D's primary functions?
Promoting bone formation and developing an intact, strong skeleton.
Affecting the immune system by promoting immunosuppression and anti-tumor activity.
Regulating the calcium and phosphorus levels in the blood by promoting absorption from food in the intestines, and by promoting re-absorption of calcium in the kidneys.
If those three reasons alone don't make you feel good about your decision to tan, you may need to read them again.
Feel good about the sun and enjoy your tanning experience!
