Everybody, well, almost everybody, loves going outside for a little fun
now and then. Whether it's a trip to the beach, a ski trip in the
mountains, or just an afternoon spent out in the sun at a football game
most of us are going to be out in the sun from time to time. Even
without being outside for prolonged periods of time those little five
and ten minutes in the sun to run errands
etc. begin to mount up over
time.

And you really want to become a complete hermit and never stick your
head outdoors. We actually need a little sun from time to time to help
our body produce vitamin D
. The conclusion is we need a little bit of
sunlight but not too much - so how do you protect yourself from the
harmful effect of the sun's rays?

If you are going outside and plan on being out in the sun for an
extended period of time, especially if it is during the middle of the
day - cover up? It's really pretty simple. Clothing can provide a very
good protective barrier if you are going to be outdoors for an extended
period. But not all clothing is created equal when it comes to
protecting your skin from harmful UVA and UVB rays. If it's not too hot,
long sleeve shirts or blouses and long pants or skirts are going to be
your first choice simply because they cover more skin area. There are a
number of clothing products on the market today that are manufactured to
be worn in very hot weather but allow you to stay cool and also provide
excellent UV protection.

If you are going to be out in a very hot bright day for an extended
period of time you may want to consider in vesting in some of these
excellent protective products. Some manufactures include labels that
allow you to rate the effectiveness of the garment, just like you do
when shopping for sunscreen. And don't forget to wear some SPF 15 or
higher sunscreen on those areas like your face and neck that aren't
going to be covered by clothing.

Skin cancer can be avoided by most people, you just have to be sensible
and start when you're young. All those sunspots that show up when you 40
got their start when you were on the beach in your 20's.
