A study shows that women who stay inside more often are at a high risk for breast cancer than those who spend time outside. What’s more, breast cancer is less prevalent closer to the equator, where sunlight is more common. The key ingredient is the valuable Vitamin D that exposure to the sun provides, though I would be interested to know if it makes a difference whether people get natural vitamin D from the sunlight or if similar health benefits could be derived simply from staying inside and taking vitamin D supplements. I tend to think that people who get outside are generally healthier overall than those who are housebound.

I'm UK based so can tell UK readers that female breast cancer deaths are around 12,347 annually while total skin cancer deaths are 2000. Reducing the Breast Cancer deaths by 50% would save 6000 breast cancer deaths annually and would not, (if people act sensibly) increase skin cancer deaths at all. Short regular LIMITED sun exposure primes your skin cells to fight skin cancer. as shown in this research http://www.sciencentral.com/articles/view.php3?type=article&article_id=218392932 DCs metabolize sunlight-induced vitamin D3 to 'program' T cell attraction to the epidermal chemokine CCL27". http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=pubmed&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=17259988 If you include the other cancers that thrive in Vitamin D insufficient bodies the odds are 30 to one in favour of having optimal vitamin d status most easily acquired by regular short sun bathing sessions when your shadow is shorter than your height. 15-20 mins is all you need to raise 4000iu Vitamin D3. (your daily usage) to store more for the Winter or to rectify a deficiency situation then you need to allow the skin to cool down and the Vitamin D to be absorbed before having another 15mins in the sunshine. The total max your body usually can make in a day is around 10,000iu so 45-50mins in total in 3 sun sessions is the maximum exposure that may ever be necessary.
