I’m a logical, common sense guy by nature. Before I judge anything, I step back and ask myself, “does this make sense?” So, when the dermatology industry began recommending total sun avoidance and a total ban on indoor tanning in the early ‘90s, I was immediately skeptical. Not just because their science was extremely weak, at best – no, my logical personality couldn’t conceive that nature would evolve to a point where that bright, shiny globe over our heads, which has kept every living thing on earth healthy and alive for millions of years, is now deadly and should be avoided at all cost. No, I don’t care how high they stack the junk science and the anti-UV propaganda; the “sunscare” industry will never convince me to stop worshipping the sun.
Sunlight deficiency is responsible for an estimated 300,000 annual deaths and billions in health care costs, making it the number two health care concern in the U.S.
