Since when are minors not allowed to used tanning beds? My dad was obsessed with them so he made me use one a couple of times when I was a teenager. Needless to say, he got skin cancer. Dude was just sitting in the sun to help his depression but wouldn’t admit it cause he’s a stubborn boomer who doesn’t believe in mental health treatment. He probably just needed vitamin D suppliments.
Shouldn’t be vitamin D with that amount of sun, tbh.
15 min of sun exposure 2-3 times a week even when wearing a t-shirt should be sufficient for most white people.
Perhaps it could’ve been some sort of underlying vitamin D production issue, so that he knew he sort of wanted it, but his body just didn’t produce it despite sun exposure.
But yeah you don’t need to literally tan yoself to get sufficient sun exposure for vitamin d, even at higher latitudes.
