Have you had your vitamin d status checked?
I appreciate that sunshine is available for Vitamin D synthesis every day of the year in Australia but you also have a very aggressive Sunsmart Policy which puts the dangers of skin cancers ahead of those 17 other cancers which occur less often (average 29% reduction) in those with a high vitamin d status achieved by limited regular skin exposure to sunshine.
In the UK the death toll for those 17 cancers (Breast, prostate, colon etc) that are increased by low vitamin d status outstrip those promoted by sunBURN by a factor of 30 to 1.
However
This research shows some Australian people do have lower than ideal status of vitamin d3 and it would be worth supplementing in winter and ensuring limited (no more the 20mins) regular exposure of skin (without sunscreen) during the summer.
