Do you really believe that using sunscreen prevents all UVB or UVA from getting through? Have you even read the literature? Unless you have very dark skin, typically brown/black, and if you live in areas that don't get much sun (like extreme north or south), you get plenty of sun. Do you put on sunscreen walking to the car, to the mall, to the mailbox?

Even melanoma is inversly related to vitamin D status. Those people with melanoma who have the highest vitamin D status have the best prognosis and the fewest repeats. The central cause of melanoma, is not sun exposure, but an imbalance in the omega 6 to 3 fat ratio. Epidemiological, experimental, and mechanistic data implicate omega-6 fat as stimulators and long-chain omega-3 fats as inhibitors of development and progression of a range of human cancers, including melanoma. Rather than promote the use of sunscreens and severely limit the valuable benefits of UV-B radiation, we should encourage the judicious use of clothing and timed sun exposure. Key phrase...
