Is Indoor Tanning Healthy?
While UV Abuse May Raise Risk
Sensible Exposure Can Be Safe
For years I swore off tanning beds. I was sure they caused cancer, premature wrinkling, and would most surely shorten my life span. I viewed “fake bakers” as naively ignorant and narcissistic. I couldn’t understand why anyone would gamble with their lives by using a tanning bed when they knew they weren’t safe and certainly not healthy.

That Was Then, This is Now
I have to admit I was quite gullible and trusting in my younger years. Not being a data analyzer by nature, and no internet to provide the plethora of research available today, I believed what I heard on television. I didn’t know the information I was receiving was biased and misguided. Information that appeared to be true, but had an element of doubt… My years of training in the health and wellness field taught me a very important lesson:
The Proof is in the Pudding
-
If tanning beds cause cancer, why don’t all “fake bakers” have it?
-
Vitamin D from tanning beds & sunshine protect against cancers and many other “dis-eases.” Its benefits are nutritional.
-
Taking high quality, whole food supplements can protect from diseases caused by malnutrition.
-
Cancer does not grow in a well-nourished, non-toxic body, sunbed tanned or not.
-
Countries that have high incidences of skin cancer use the most sunscreen (USA & Australia). We understand now that commercial sunscreen is replete with toxic chemicals and prevents Vitamin D synthesis.
-
For those in the northern latitudes, winter tanning is a Godsend. It helps to keep us sane!!
-
Vitamin D is absolutely necessary!
Getting the right amount of vitamin D doesn’t depend on the foods you eat!
Instead, getting the right amount depends on sun exposure and if you take a
supplement with the right amount.
Safe Sunbed Tanning
-
Use common sense. Follow rules and guidelines associated with your bed or the service you frequent.
-
Empower your health. Read, research and learn.
Sunscreens Do More Harm Than Good
Remember the evening news program back in the 90’s featuring children who had acquired rickets, a Vitamin D deficiency? Their well-intentioned parents
(programmed by the media enhanced cancer & sunscreen industries) were slathering chemical laden sunscreen/sunblock on their vulnerable children believing it would protect them. The sunscreen prevented Vitamin D synthesis from the sun which resulted in bone growth deformation.
Due to inactivity and overuse of sunscreen, an epidemic of rickets among children has once again emerged.
