Life on our planet needs sunlight to survive. And humans are no exception. Unlike plants and animals that daily struggle to stay in the light, we actively work to avoid the sun.

There are a lot of misconceptions about sunlight. After hearing relentless campaigns telling us to lather on the sunscreen, many Americans have been led to believe that ultra violet (UV) light—whether it comes from the sun or from a tanning salon—is something to be feared, rather than cherished. Until now, hope for a balanced message in the public debate on this issue seemed to be lost.

The reality is that UV light provides us with countless health benefits—both physiological and psychological. And the rewards of “soaking up the sun” even outweigh the risks of overexposure. Though there are various methods of getting the recommend amount, such as mowing the lawn or lying by the pool, safe, moderate tanning is the best way to maximize these benefits while minimizing any risks.

TrustTanning.com is devoted to answering the most frequently asked questions about tanning and debunking some of the most pervasive myths.

  This treatment is very nice, the session lasts 15 minutes and brings a feeling of well being. After the first sessions, I saw improvements in my skin, it became smoother and softer. After a dozen sessions, the brown spots on my hands and chest are fading. After about twenty sessions, my skin completely changed, it became smoother and firmer with a brighter complexion. My wrinkles are less noticable, and the brown spots on my hands and forehead have disappeared. The scar of my Caesarian section is much less apparent and blends well. Looking at pictures the improvement is visible on the chest, the forehead and especially my complexion; My skin looks healthier and more vibrant. I am delighted with the results."

Vitamin D

Americans’ Vitamin D Deficiency

“If you live in the north and especially in the winter months, you’re not gonna get enough sun exposure.”

—Dr. Mehmet Oz on Good Morning America

According to Harvard researchers, about 60 percent of Americans don’t get enough vitamin D. And doctors estimate that the worldwide figure includes more than one billion people. Though certain segments of the population (pregnant woman, infants, elderly, etc.) experience an increased risk, researchers from the Food and Drug Administration report high incidences of vitamin D insufficiency in almost all populations. Read more about vitamin D in this post on the Newsweek website.

Limits of Vitamin D in Food

“Sun exposure is perhaps the most important source of vitamin D4.”

—National Institutes of Health

Vitamin D isn’t like other vitamins that you can easily ingest as part of your diet. It is best absorbed through the skin from exposure to UV light. In order to get the amount of vitamin D produced during 20 minutes of sun exposure or 5-7 minutes in a tanning booth, you would need to eat more than 100 eggs. Even foods with added vitamin D, like milk, don’t come close to providing the necessary amount.

 

Roadblocks to Vitamin D

Roadblocks to adequate sun exposure are everywhere:

  • Geography (Cities in latitudes above 37 degrees get less UV light.)
  • Fashion (Robes, hats, or clothing with lots of layers keep light from reaching the skin.)
  • Work (Late night shifts or very dark environments keep employees from the sun.)
  • Cosmetics (Excessive sunscreen or makeup with SPF 15 and higher prevents all vitamin D production.)
  • Ethnicity (Darker pigments inhibit the body’s ability to naturally produce vitamin D.)

All of these factors ensure that individuals are unlikely to obtain much vitamin D from sunlight.
