In this episode of Beyond the Basics Health Academy, Dr. Meaghan and Mackenzie Burris dive deep into a timely and essential topic: how to enjoy the many benefits of sun exposure while practicing safe and informed sun protection.
We explore both sides of the sun exposure conversation, highlighting the risks of overexposure and the significant health consequences associated with too little sun, including studies estimating that 340,000 deaths occur each year globally due to insufficient sun exposure.
Mackenzie and Dr. Meaghan offer evidence-based insights into the importance of vitamin D and increasing our levels with sun exposure, while also making sure that we are protecting our skin.
