Anything to deprive the population of vitamin D. The worst part is, the logic of the argument is that people who have had a sunburn are x% more likely to get skin cancer. First of all, the odds of getting skin cancer aren’t astronomically high. Secondly, who hasn’t had a sun burn? How do they even create a control group for this without just using a bunch of kids that may or may not get skin cancer later in life?
Anyways, of course it wraps up with a blanket argument that the sun is dangerous and something to be avoided. This is sickening, and people just eat up this junk science.
You're right...total junk science. I haven't worn sunscreen in years and feel even more confident in my decision knowing what I now know. The opposite of what anything "popular/mainstream/accepted/etc" is generally proving to be true.
I think there’s a potential risk with severe over exposure. But there are risks with under exposure. Like water, the sun is absolutely critical to your health, but in excessive conditions can be a danger. Maybe wear sunscreen if you’re working out in the sun for a full day, but you don’t need it every time you step outside.
Yes I agree however people worked outside all day for thousands of years. I don’t recall skin cancer really being a thing back then. I’m sure they just covered up when the exposure was going to be too much.
