Breast cancer patients with low levels of vitamin D were much more likely to die of the disease or have it spread than patients getting enough of the nutrient, a study found ? adding to evidence the "sunshine vitamin'' has anti-cancer benefits.
The results are sure to renew arguments about whether a little more sunshine is a good thing.
The skin makes vitamin D from ultraviolet light. Too much sunlight can raise the risk of skin cancer, but small amounts ? 15 minutes or so a few times a week without sunscreen ? may be beneficial, many doctors believe.
