Snowing outside, so missing spring and wondering if HPS lights provide vitamin D?

Well I am stoned and looking at more snow falling outside. I know the sun provides us vitamin D. So I am wondering if our HPS grow lights also provide some small source of vitamin D as well. Look its not like I am going to hang in my grow to try and supplement my vitamin D just stoned and curious?

Go and lie in your tent with our plants pretend you are lying in a field of weed with the sun on your face and a can of beer in your hand.

the blue cfls are, i believe, the same color temp, 6500k, as the blue lights used for SAD. i veg with them. always makes me feel better to sit in there. but then again i have over 800 actual watts in there too.
i don't believe hps has the same affect.

I thought it was just me. I always feel better after sitting under the lights for awhile during winter.
