Vitamin D
One of the benefits of being out in the sun is that it is a natural source of Vitamin D, an essential vitamin for healthy skin and general wellbeing. Vitamin D can also boost happiness and a balanced mood in significant ways.
It’s a lot easier to feel positive, refreshed and joyful when you have been exposed to the right amount. Conversely, a lack of Vitamin D has been linked to fatigue and low mood, which is why tanning is about much more than changing the colour and shade of your skin. At The Mega Tan Lounge, tanning is about feeling your very best.
All the tanning beds that we use here at The Mega Tan Lounge are a great source of Vitamin D, whilst also being safe. When you sunbathe outside, you run the risk of uneven tanning and overexposure to sunlight. This is a lot easier to monitor and regulate with our state-of-the-art tanning beds, all of which can provide the optimal boost of Vitamin D to your skin. Not only will you be tanning and enjoying the relaxing tanning process, but you will be providing your body with a vital vitamin that can also help to soothe away skin problems, such as acne and psoriasis. At The Mega Tan Lounge, you can boost your Vitamin D in a safe and fast way. There is no need to lie in the harmful sunshine all day, as our tanning beds work quickly, safely and effectively.

The elderly don't need as much uv exposure as the young
Your ability to manufacture Vitamin D diminishes from age twenty to age seventy. Older people are receptive to the alarmist warnings about excessive sun exposure and often decrease their exposure at a time when they need it most. Since Vitamin D is directly linked to bone health, this age group should be more concerned about factoring a hip because they are Vitamin D deficient.
