Oh, he recommends 5000 units? That's good to know. I couldn't find it anywhere. I take 1600 right now. Maybe I should increase it. I definitely noticed a difference in my skin when I added the Vit D3 and the fish oil to my day. I have been unusually "well" too, now that I think of it.

I had gorgeous skin all over when I was teenager. My niece is the same and is really into tanning. I want to show her my skin now and tell her to STOP it. She has a deeper skin tone and tans that really really DARK DARK, and I am pretty fair and mine was more gold--would get to certain color then wouldn't get any darker, no matter how much time I spend in the sun. Her mother is the same and her skin still looks really good at almost 50...so maybe it's all in the skin type.

I agree with Lisa...the Eades recommend just enough sun to feel a good strong warmth each day.
