Yes, we all now understand that too much exposure to the sun’s harmful rays can be damaging to our skin. What a lot of us are unaware of is that not all of the UV rays emanating from the sun are detrimental to our skin.
Perhaps even more concerning is the wealth of misinformation surrounding the differing way in which the harmful elements of the sun’s rays degenerate our skin cells. If you are concerned about the health and condition of your skin , the following is of utmost importance.
NOT ALL SUN EXPOSURE IS BAD
One of the greatest elements the sun passes to the human body is frequently left unspoken. That is, short UVB rays are a major deliverer of Vitamin D. So why is Vitamin D needed? Vitamin D protects and increases the survival rates against a number of internal cancers such as colon cancer, lung cancer, breast cancer and prostate cancer, as well as many other diseases.
NOT ALL SUN EXPOSURE IS GOOD
To even the kilter a little, it is important to note that exposure to ultraviolet light, UVA or UVB, from sunlight accounts for 90% of the symptoms of premature skin aging, along with a plethora of other skin changes.
UV radiation is the number one instigators of:
Collagen breakdown – causing the formation solar scars and increasing the appearance of wrinkles
Free radicals – which disturb cell function and alter genetic material such as RNA and DNA of the cell, thereby increasing wrinkles.
Texture Changes Caused by the Sun – causing a thickening of the skin that proliferates coarse wrinkles and yellow discoloration of the skin; in addition to a thinning of the skin that causes fine wrinkles, easy bruising, and skin tearing.
Pigment Changes Caused by the Sun – increases the number of freckles, and age spots or liver spots on the backs of the hands, chest, shoulders, arms, and upper back.
IT CAN INCREASE THE ONSET OF CANCER
Whereas the more severe effects of UV radiation include:
Skin Bumps Caused by the Sun – put another way, an increased number of moles and precancerous lesions called actinic keratoses, as well as seborrheic keratosis which appear as warty lesions stuck onto the skin.
Skin Cancer Caused by the Sun – such as the 3 most common skin cancers: melanoma, basal cell carcinoma, and squamous cell carcinoma. All of which have the propensity to be fatal.
