AVOIDANCE OF SUN EXPOSURE IS A RISK FACTOR FOR ALL CAUSE MORTALITY
"We found that allâcause mortality was inversely related to sun exposure habits. The mortality rate amongst avoiders of sun exposure was approximately TWOFOLD higher compared with the highest sun exposure group"

Sunlight exposure and fair skin are major determinants of human vitamin D production, which is crucial for quality of life and now obviously quantity too.

Exposure to sunlight remains the main source of vitamin D.
Sunlight UVB radiation with a wavelength between 290-315 nm penetrates the skin and converts 7âdehydrocholesterol to 25âhydroxycholecalciferol vitamin D3 via previtamin D.

Interestingly enough, Low vitamin D concentrations have also been linked to thicker, more aggressive melanomas with shorter survival times.

Itâs good to get outside, itâs good to get hours of sun on as much skin as possible.
Avoid the hottest and highest-uv parts of the day, but otherwise make sure to be outside as much as you can, shirt off. No sunscreen.
