"The public would love to have the message that they should go to the tanning booths or go to the beach" without sunscreen, but that isn't safe, said Dr. Barbara Gilchrest, chairwoman of the dermatology department at Boston University School of Medicine. Gilchrest said people worried about low vitamin D levels should take a vitamin supplement."

This is the same woman mentioned in the letter in the TanTalk forum "Fighting Back"
