I think the latest studies are showing that certain cancers are prevalent in developed societies because we spend the days inside working, and the nights under electric lights. We need sun by day and dark at night. Again, of course you wouldn’t want to burn and fairer skin means be more careful. But isn’t it sad that popular culture, even popular medical culture, can turn us away from common sense healthful practices?

absolutely...I have skin condition that improves with exposure to sunlight, so I’ve always been skeptical of this hype.
For me, standing out in the sun is a very healing experience. I love the sun.
