Has anyone used the Sperti UVB vitamin D lamp? https://www.sperti.com/product/sperti-vitamin-d-light-box https://www.sperti.com/product/sperti-vitamin-d-light-b

  Eventually all artificial lights that don’t help with vitamin D deficiency should be banned.

  It is FDA cleared rather than approved, which is a lower bar. And it appears to be cleared as a tanning device, not as a Vitamin D-related device: https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/cdrh_docs/pdf15/K151721.pdf https://www.accessdata.fda.gov/cdrh_docs/pdf15/K151721.pdf Note that the manufacturer has gotten in trouble with the FDA before: https://www.fdalabelcompliance.com/letters/ucm284022 https://www.fdalabelcompliance.com/letters/ucm284022 So I'd maintain some skepticism on the product's efficacy as it related to health. (I tried finding other clearances related to the product and failed, but they might still be out there...)
