Chuck:

I thought it was vitiligo also. But then I remembered that my sister has

vitiligo and although it is more prominent in the summer when she tans, it does

not leave in the winter.

Any autoimmune condition, whether vitiligo or otherwise is not necessarily a

good thing. Indicates a less than optimum immune response that could spell

trouble in other more insidious ways.

Vitiligo disappears just like every other Caucasian looses their tan

over the winter. It isn't gone, it just isn't as noticeable. Blacks

don't turn lighter during the winter, which is why it is very

noticeable, and actually painful on some. Vitiligo is an autoimmune

response that has no adverse physical problems associated with it. I

have had it for decades, it gets a little worse every year, so now I

don't even try to get a tan. Is that a BAD thing?

If you knew the answer, why did you ask the question?

Autoimmune responses can't be cured with vitamins or supplements

either though. Vitiligo is non-damaging and non-life threatening,

from my endocrinologist.
