Parents in Australia, which has very high skin-cancer rates, conducted an unwitting experiment on their children, keeping them out of the sun or entirely bundled up in UV-cutting outfits outdoors. The result was rickets. The children had sufficient D in their diets but could not synthesize it due to lack of sunlight.

The reason for this is a massive campaign by the dermatologists to force people to stay out of the sun for fear of skin cancer. There was a study done by some smart people from Boston and Edmonton, and they studied the effects of tanning booths on Vitamin D. They used only tanning booths that have UVb, as they know that UVb rays help the body produce D. The short story is that the tanners increased their D level over the winter, while the controls lost it, and were all deficient by spring.
