We can get vitamin D from the Sun, they are reporting that many people aren't getting enough, most of us only have our face and perhaps our hands exposed.
Would we get more vitamin D if we went out nude?

Not necessarily. Vitamin D production peaks out and decreases after about 20 minutes in the sun. The reason is that our ancestors used to run around in the nude all the time, and too much vitamin D is a bad thing. So, they developed this mechanism that shuts of the vitamin D production after a while.

Of course. The more the body area is exposed to the sun the more vitamin D is absorbed. Elemental logic my friend.

In theory...yes. More skin exposure to the sun means more Vitamin D intake. But I would make sure to wear sunscreen!

Yes, you would because it is sunlight hitting the skin that causes your body to produce Vit D. But, you would freeze your little tusshy off if you tried it this time of year where I live! Consider a nudist colony or beach someplace warm!

Yes. But due to metabolism, it only works for women so it's no use men going nude but women should feel free.
