I knew someone (my brother) who spent lots of time outside, and died of skin cancer at 48.

I’d rather supplement with vitamin D then risk skin cancer.

I'm so sorry to hear about your brother. I agree with supplementation. My father has had Melanoma three times, thank God they have caught it early each time. I have avoided the sun for 20 years now. I'm in my early forties, and even living in SO CAL (leather skin capital of the US) I get compliments on my skin. I'm fair skinned but I hope to avoid what my Dad has gone through.
