Sun exposure and cancer

The concept that early exposure to sunburn, in childhood perhaps, increases your chances of developing cancer. That's a good one. Based on fear. It may be true, but what's the evidence? Just a circulated story to bolster sales of those products designed to 'protect' against sunburn.

The best protection?

Cover up against the fierce burning power of the sun. Skin goes brown as a defence against the sun's rays. There is such bizarre hypocrisy in all this. And it's really confused. On the one hand there is the 'body-beautiful' and on the other it is taken in some cultures to represent an underdog.

Stupid 'celebrities' get paid a lot of money to promote lies. The stupid selling to the gullible. What a combination. But it makes a shed load of money for these 'businesses'. Extracting money from people by selling them something they shouldn't really need if it weren't for their gullibility and vanity.
