It seems timely to discuss summer skin cancer prevention. 1. Avoid the sun especially between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. when it is at its brightest. 2. Wear sunscreen year-round. Apply sunscreen generously (one or two tablespoons) to all exposed areas and use a product with a SPF rating of at least 30 with coverage against both UVA and UVB rays. Apply sunscreen 30 minutes before going out- side. * Remember, sunlight reflects off sand, water, snow and ice and these surfaces can magnify the effects of UV radiation by up to 80 percent. 3. Re -apply sunscreen every two hours once you are outside. 4. Cover your skin. Wear tightly woven, dark -colored clothing that covers your arms and legs, as a well as broad -rimmed hat to protect your face and neck. 5. Avoid tanning beds. The lighting used in these machines can actually be more harmful than the sun. 6. Know your sun -sensitive medications. Many medications increase the chance of your skin burning. Check with your doc- tor or pharmacist. ** Contrary to popular belief, tanned skin is not healthy skin. Rather, it's skin that has been damaged by UV radiation. 36 Join us for a dance!
