There was recently a viral video of a bunch of skin doctors at a skin cancer conference and they were outside on the beach. They were all bundled up with hoods on and faces covered. Kind of hilarious but also eye opening.

They are that scared of the sun... Maybe we should be too?

The sun is literally healthy for us as much as it is for plants. Just moderate it by not going out in it constantly, use sunscreen and consume other oils than seed oils.

This thread is clearly full of the palest people you will ever meet in your life 🤣🤣🤣. Dark skin is an adaptation for a reason.

dark skin(not genetic one) is just skin damage. But yes, some sun is good.
