UV radiation is a part of everyday life and is even said to have some beneficial factors. Without UV radiation we would not produce vitamin D. This still gives no reason to over expose yourself with tanning beds or lamps. “Even as early as 1940, the Council on Physical Therapy steered clear of indicating that vitamin D production from sunlamps is as beneficial as that produced by solar exposure,” (Coelho, Hearing 59). With so many other forms of receiving vitamin D there is really no need to have to be worried about not getting enough UVs in your day.…

Sarah L. Taylor and several of her colleagues conducted a pilot study to examine these effects on people with Fibromyalgia syndrome. Fibromyalgia syndrome is a chronic disorder distinguished by widespread musculoskeletal pain around the neck, torso, and extremities, referred to as “tender points” (Taylor et al. 15). Nonetheless, Fibromyalgia syndrome does not typically appear in people under the age of eighteen, and if it did this would be a very rare case. According to the USA Today article written by Tracy Loew, there is also another small health benefit from ultraviolet radiation, “the natural production of Vitamin D” (03a). However this small benefit does not and could not outweigh the potential damaging medical risks caused by tanning beds and their harmful ultraviolet…

Kay, It would appear that most people are aware of melanoma than any other types of skin cancer. Which is great, in the sense that it is the most dangerous type of skin cancer.

It boils down to the authors concluding that various elements of natural selection, including reproductive health and migration, as well as cultural behaviors have influenced the variety of skin colors that we see today. To start with, the melanin in our skin protects us from UVB rays.…
Per a study conducted by a group of University of Miami researchers in 2014, there are more tanning salons in the state of Florida than McDonald’s restaurants, CVS pharmacies, and Bank of America businesses. Some may say that this is not really a problem, but others are in awe of this incomprehensible statistic. Those who are not affected by this fact are unaware of the connection between tanning beds, sun exposure, and skin cancer. Indoor tanning and prolonged exposure to the sun’s ultra-violet rays cause many types of skin cancer, including the deadliest form, the dreaded melanoma. Skin cancer is the most prominent form of cancer in the United States.…

Introduction Vitamin D is a group of fat-soluble secosteroids which is responsible for improving the intestinal absorption of inorganic ions such as calcium, zinc, iron, and magnesium, phosphate. Vitamin D2 (ergocalciferol) and Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) are most vital compounds in the human being. Vitamin D is not actually a vitamin, but a steroid hormone formed in the body when the skin is exposed to sunbeams, mainly ultraviolet B light (UVB) rays22. The compound vitamin D has been found in organisms that are more than 500 million years old, including phytoplankton (Emiliania huxleyi), and diatoms (Skeletonema menxelii), which can endogenously synthesize vitamin D (ergosterol, or vitamin D2).Vitamin D is a steroid hormone with pleiotropic…
Squamous cell carcinoma is characterized as uncontrolled growths located in the very thin, flattened cells in the epidermis. SCC can range from open sores to warts in terms of identification. It is mainly caused by "cumulative UV exposure over the course of a lifetime" (Squamous Cell Carcinoma (SCC), 2012), tanning beds with their intense UV lights can also lead to squamous cell carcinoma. Prevention of squamous cell carcinoma is common with other type of skin cancer; cover up when outside, avoid tanning, especially UV tanning beds, use a broad spectrum sunscreens, and get familiar with your body by examining it once a month. Treatment for this skin cancer is "based off the tumors type, size, location, and depth of penetration, as well as the patients age and general health"…
