One of the greatest myths perpetuated by 20th Century marketing scams is the belief that sun exposure is harmful and causes skin cancer. This myth has perpetuated a lack of Vitamin D in this country and may even be INCREASING the incidence of skin cancer due to certain chemicals contained in sunscreen. Let's look at the truth ...
Even for some skin problems a constant sun exposure is a therapy, it's the case in psoriatic patients, my father skin looks better after spend time under the sun!! / last year I used less sunscreen in my little son if I knew I was just to spend a few time exposed, and also there are certain points to focus like face and shoulders and NOT put sunscreen in entirely body, I think is not needed. Good article!
ReplyDeleteGreat article! This has been my gut feeling for many years, and I'm glad to have someone back it up with facts. I always feel better when I've had some sun, and I've always felt that the chemicals in sunscreen were much more harmful than the sun itself. I have a friend who is seldom in the sun and had a severe case of melanoma. Thankfully she survived, but only after a very invasive surgery.
