I just want my vitamin D!

I often get funny looks from other people whenever I go out walking to lunch under the hot summer sun--sometimes it's 35C out there nowadays--without an umbrella over my head. Other staff I meet along the way sometimes even ask, "Nagpapaitim ka ba?" (Are you trying to get a tan?) On the contrary, I'm not crazy about getting a tan. My reason is actually quite simple: My job entails working indoors at my desk or at my computer practically all day. So why shouldn't I want to get exposed to good healthy sunlight even if it's for just ten minutes everyday?
