Or just take Vitamin D to sidestep this rather terribly "designed" body mechanism.
- njharman 13y agoI can attest that Vitamin D is no substitute for outdoors / sun in combating depression and/or SAD.
- dmm 13y agoIt's not just vitamin D that's created in the skin during UV exposure, many closely related substances are also made. The exact purpose or effect, if any, of these is unknown.
- john_b 13y agoScientists still don't fully understand all the effects sun exposure has on our bodies, so passing judgment on this biological mechanism is premature.
