Tanning and skin cancer

How many sun lovers out there have tangled with skin cancer?

The doctor checks them out about once a year.

My mom died from Melanoma. It's one of the most lethal and hereditary forms of cancer. As I age, I become much more careful.

The amount of sun we should get for vitamin D is as little 5 minutes to about 30 minutes twice a week, depending on time of year and latitude.
