I burn at night under a full moon.

Ok no the sun does not contain a rather large macro-molecule. And if it did it would probably hurt a lot to drive it through your skin.
It does photo-activate a VitD precursor in the skin and viola, you gots the good stuff.
I lmao everytime I see helicopter moms trying to con others into whitewashing their spawn like Tom Sawyer.
And I am always outdoors, don’t use sunscreen and I take Vitamin D. My theory is the sunscreen chemicals have to be doing more harm than good...
“I read a study by one doctor several years ago that said that wearing sunglasses contributes to sunburn Apparently, if the eyes do not detect the sunshine the body cannot protect against a burn.”
I read a study about this device you could put on your car and increase mileage 50%. Only $19.95. I have four extra available if you want.
Get some sun, but don’t overdo it. Revolutionary stuff.
Live in western Colorado high desert environment (4600’ ASL) so much sunny weather you actually look forward to overcast days. Bottom line I use SPF 15 nearly everyday and in the winter when skiing SPF 30. Sun screen in my environment is your friend.
Dang. Now my melanoma is confused!
Your “son” is that huffy because a 12 year old (not an infant, but a 12 year old) had a slightly pink face? That’s irrational. You did nothing wrong at all. He’s being an ass.
I think more investigation is warranted. Your picture only raises additional questions. Further review is warranted. But we lack additional study material.
You and me both. I tell people I am a person of pallor.
Daughter took her baby in for a checkup and was told by a military doc that the baby must have Vitamin D supplements. In Hawaii. I don’t know if daughter was the good smarty pants I raised her to be when confronted by such stupidity, but she certainly was when she told me about it later. Lol. You just have to wonder what they are teaching in medical schools. It sure isn’t science.
I stand corrected.
You're right... I think I'll head to the beach and check it out. I'll report back!
If i drive all day in the car i will get sunburn on the left side of my face.
I can only guess i was designed to live in a cave.
In the Army, uniform of the day in the summer was typically sleeves rolled up on the BDU blouse. I had to get a sleeves down waiver. LOL.
did I hurt my grandchild because I was stupid?....No, he did because he IS. Period.
English heritage here. I’m extremely fair, and I can feel my arms burning during the 20 minute drive into town. I’ve never been interested in being tan, nor will I ever be.
My sister-in-law was an habitual tanner when she was younger. She’s had several skin cancers removed, and will have to be vigilant about exams for the rest of her life.
Wear sunscreen. Drink milk.
Well, that was mean... sheesh.
