OMG Nate ! How cool is that ?? Thanks for posting that site !

Great, Nate! Thanks for posting.

Though I will not be needing it as I am moving to the tropics, living outdoors, I am curious what type of lamp for how long will produce D for a 200 pound person?

All fruits and vegetables have antioxidants that help combat cellular damage from things like sun exposure.  The darker the colors, the more the antioxidants.  So it's not just tomatoes, it's all fruits and veggies!  Lucky us.  :)  Eat the rainbow.

Aw...thanks!  Back at ya!

Thanks Nate!
