Dangers of the Sun - Health & Fitness While Dieting - ContinuedSumming Up the Sun Protective measures should be taken whenever you or your loved one goes outdoors. As we have learned, our delicate skin is not even safe from the sun's powerful rays in the shade, or amid the ice during winter months. Know when enough is enough. Listen to your body talk. Know your skin type and sun tolerance. Limit outdoor time to twenty minutes at a time without putting on your protective gear: sunscreen, sunshades, lip balm and your broad-rimmed hat. Teach your children about the powerful effects of the sun. Amazingly, 80% of skin damage occurs before the age of 18. Small children, as well as animals, are incapable of conveying how the heat is effecting them. Consider your health. Be aware of the effects the sun may have on any medications you are taking as well as any health ailments you may have. Bottom line - respect the powers of the sun all year round - during hot weather, and cold weather. Remember that prevention is your best mode of protection. Now it’s time to apply our knowledge and best of all, to have fun in the sun.
