Shining The Light On Ultraviolet Exposure CBN News Science & Medical Reporter - For over 50 years, medical literature has found regular sun exposure has been connected with substantially lower death rates from certain cancers. Vitamin D is made in the skin from sunlight. So if your skin is dark or old, or not exposed to enough ultraviolet light then you are much more likely to be low in D. That could lead to the vitamin D deficiency disease osteoporosis. And that might mean broken hips and premature death.

Hildebolt, D.D.S., Ph.D., associate professor of radiology at Washington University's Mallinckrodt Institute of Radiology and author of the paper.

The best source of vitamin D is sunshine."
