tanning beds and vitamin D?

[LakeMountD]

Okay I know that sunlight causes your body to produce its own Vitamin D, which Bobo posted an article on in the News forum about helping you keep fat down, however do tanning beds have the same effect? I am not sure if it is the UV rays from the sun causing the increase or possibly something else.

I also believe it is the UV Rays that your skin converts to make the Vit. D.

I remember reading a study that proved that bright direct UV sunlight increases test levels. Totally serious...I'm going to see if I can find it.

LOL, I tried to look for a bit today but couldn't find it. I found some other studies though that mentioned some things about some semi-related fields of study but nothing that I could understand...lol..
