We’ve all heard it, we need to stay out of the sun. But, did you know that some sun is necessary for a happy, healthier you? This is Judy Gaman and this is your Stay Young Medical Minute. The sun has gotten a bad rap because prolonged exposure can lead to skin cancer. Isn’t it ironic that hospitals and labs are using UV light to kill bacteria, even the most danger types of bacteria? Hmm, maybe a little sun would do our immune system some good, after all, the sun has been known to boost our levels of white blood cells. The sun has also been shown to reduce stress and reduce body inflammation. So, how much is enough sun? As a rule, twenty to thirty minutes of sunshine is sufficient to get the health benefits without creating the dangers that come with over exposure. Remember, if your skin starts to turn pink, it’s time to head back inside or apply sunscreen. Get started today by visiting STAY YOUNG AMERICA DOT COM.
