Along with my (past) Mercola influenced diet came my Mercola influenced tanning.
Mercola's view is that tanning--best outside but in good tubes too--is great
because it may be the best way to get Vitamin D: by making it. He refers to a researcher
who argues that the oral or skin-applied D doesn't really do the trick.
But I haven't read anything by Peat that I recall on tanning.
He might think the radiation dangers
outweigh the Vitamin D considerations.
I've read that he sees real danger in x-rays.
And I've read that he applies Vitamin D to himself sometimes.
So maybe he doesn't think the sun/tanning is necessary or helpful.
Has anybody seen anything from Peat on this?
