Problem is then your trading one health problem for another. More sun exposure might increase you Vitamin D levels, but it's also increasing your risk of developing cancer as well as speeding up photoaging.
The safest all around solution is to continue proper sun protection with clothing, sunscreen, etc. and supplement your Vitamin D through your diet.
On the same subject, almost everyone in Western civilization is also Vitamin B12 deficient because of the highly sanitary conditions our food and water is prepared. So people should supplement Vitamin B12 as well.
