Having pale skin means staying out of the sun, avoiding sunburn and using plenty of sunblock in summer.
A new study has found that fair-skinned people could be lacking in vitamin D, which is needed for strong bones and teeth.
People with fair skin could be at a higher risk of suffering from vitamin D deficiency, unless they take extra supplements.The survey, which examined 1,200 people, found that 730 of them had a ‘lower than optimal’ level and a large number of them were those with pale, freckled skin.
