Has the baby been thrown out with the bath water when it comes to UV light from the Sun? There remains a profound lack of evidence that more UV leads to increased mortality, and stacking evidence of the opposite association (see recent post).
In fact a 2020 review article by leading researchers in the systemic effects of sunlight and health said the exact same thing.
It’s titled ‘Insufficient Sun Exposure Has Become a Real Public Health Problem’. PMID: 32668607.
That’s not a call to bake in the midday sun in a place of high ambient UV light (like Queensland) with zero preparation. We must respect our skin type, our latitude and any mismatch that is present to harness the sun effectively and safely.
