If you do a search, this has been covered lots of times and there are lots of excellent posts out there explaining what people think.

Here is a good one:
viewtopic.php?f=4&t=21629&p=411439&hilit=UVB#p411439

I think pretty much everyone on this forum will say it won't hurt but it isn't necessary if you supplement correctly. :)

Oops - Brad beat me to it!
