What many people tend to forget is that sunlight can be good for both the body and skin:
...Sunlight--specifically UVB rays--causes your body to generate vitamin D. This is important as a vitamin D deficiency can leave the body vulnerable to an array of diseases and cancers, even possibly multiple sclerosis.
Because too many sunrays can lead to skin cancer, finding other sources of vitamin D can be sought out, but that may not always be the answer:
The obvious question, then, is why not just take vitamin D supplements? The fact of the matter is that supplements are simply not effective enough. If taken without caution they can actually be dangerous, as vitamin D is fat soluble and is thus stored in the body, so too much can cause a poisonous overdose.
So what is the answer? It may be surprising:
Now for everyone's big concern: what about skin cancer? Well, this may be hard to believe, but gradual and regular exposure to sunlight may actually prevent skin cancer. As skin is exposed to sunlight, it develops darker pigmentation, which acts as a natural sunscreen. This is why skin tones are darker in indigenous peoples of sunnier regions, such as Africa and South America. It's nature's way of protecting the skin.
According to the Skincare News Team's sources, eating a healthy diet rich in vitamin Ds also helps avoid a vitamin D deficiency. As long as proper sun care is used, anyone can soak up the sun for natural vitamin D without putting their skin or health at risk.
