Did you know that although it’s easy to prevent, there are more cases of skin cancer each year than cases of breast, colon, lung and prostrate cancers combined.

Wear tightly-woven clothing that blocks out light. Use sunscreen not just on beaches and pools but even on casual days. Make sure to follow the direction in the bottle for application. Use a wide brim hat to protect your neck as well. Use sunglasses with UVB and UVA protection lenses and most importantly stay away from the hottest hours of the day.

I think it’s good to bask under the sun once in a while but you know the saying.

I agree with the comment above we should use the exposure to the sun moderately. When my daughter and I do go into the sun we put shea butter on our hair and skin.

I think it’s good to bask under the sun once in a while but you know the saying, too much isn’t good for you so I try to use sunblock and wear sunglasses and a hat. It’s better to keep the risk of cancer to zero.

Sara, may be on to something here. Most people don’t consider the fact the the skin is an organ, and is directly affected by the other organs in the body. The higher occurrences of skin cancer may very well be diet related. I was looking up psoriasis pictures online, and psoriasis, which we know presents as a skin rash is actually an immune response. So it would not be a far leap to think that something else is causing the skin cancer that is not related to the skin itself. Just a thought.

I think moderately exposing to sun help us to gain Vitamin D. Using a good quality umbrella protects from over exposure to sunlight. Also use a good quality sunglasses for protecting your eyes from harmful UV Rays.
