1. Using too much sunscreen
Everyone knows that it’s necessary to use sunscreen when going outside. This can help avoid premature aging and skin cancer. But it’s important to not use too much. A lack of sunlight and vitamin D can lead to other types of cancer, like pancreatic cancer.
The research of Anne-Louise Ponsonby, an epidemiologist at the National Centre for Epidemiology and Population Health in Canberra, Australia, showed that vitamin D deficiency and over-the-top sun protection may be the reason for multiple sclerosis. You should protect yourself from direct sunlight, but don’t overdo it. Make decisions based on your health risks.
