Depending on your genes, you can lose the amount of mellanin (skin pigmentation) over time due to a lack of Vitamin D which is what your body makes from the sunlight. Places like Iceland/Greenland I have read have to use lights similar to tanning beds in order to get the necessary light. Everyone requires some light for their body to function.
