Vitamin D-- I dont encourage my boys to wear sunblock. WHY? Because the rate of rickets has increased markedly, with the use of sunblock. The decision was very easy: choose between a sure thing ( ricketts) or a maybe ( skin cancer). No brainer. The only time I insist on sunblock, is when out on the very reflective water. ( Neither are into winter sports.)

A recent understanding of Vit D3 is that it is reparative, and minimizes the skin cancer.

THAT would explain my mothers life long obsession with sunbathing and the lack of skin cancer until her 70's !!!

My boys are brown, but I am looking for a D3 supplement that will see them thru the fall, winter and spring. Neither will eat a huge amount of fish, and it is rather pricey.
