Use sunscreen when your baby can prevent cancer later

(The study was carried out by the Texa Biomedical Research Institute, published in the latest offline of the scientific journal Pigment Cell and Melanoma, clearly demonstrates that the incidence of tumors Melanin (a form of skin cancer) in adults can be reduced by using a suitable sunscreen at a young age.

According to Dr. John L. VandeBerg, the author of this study, the study is motivated by the fact that, although the use of sunscreen has increased over the past few decades, the incidence of melanin, one Dangerous form of skin cancer, continues to increase rapidly.

'While sunscreens have a strong effect on preventing sunburn, this paradox leads to some questions about whether sunscreens are effective in preventing melanomas caused by ultraviolet rays' , Mr. VandeBerg said. 'Many people believe that to avoid sunburn, sunscreen makes people absorb more ultraviolet rays, and that increasing the absorption of ultraviolet rays leads to an increased incidence of malignant tumors'.

The question of the effectiveness of sunscreen has yet to be answered in part because, recently, there is no test sample of natural mammals that existed by ultraviolet-induced tumors, VandeBerg said.

Texa biomedical researchers found that the use of sunscreen lotion on newborns (living in Australia) reduces the risk of pre-cancerous pigmentation (too Substances lead to malignant neoplasms), compared to those of a pocket-sized animal that only uses body lotion that does not contain sun protection. The difference in increased damage even occurs even when there is little exposure to UV rays - so little that it cannot cause sunburns or even redness of the skin for the bagged animals that do not use ice cream. Sunscreen.

'Based on the results of the study, we believe that the special important reason sunscreen should be used throughout childhood is because skin cells in the process of developing the body have divided faster. in adulthood, and in the process of cell division, cells are most sensitive to the harmful effects of UV rays , 'said VandeBerg. 'The evidence that supports this hypothesis is that even without the use of melanoma sunscreen, it does not develop in mature pups when their thin smooth skin is illuminated by UV rays'.
