New findings suggest that sun exposure may actually help cure certain types of cancers and it may be beneficial in other ways too. Although worries about skin cancer have surfaced over the past few years; new research suggests that the risk of sun cancer does not increase due to a few minutes of sun exposure. Staying outside for less than the suggested burn time without sun block is quite beneficial to your health. During this period of sun exposure you can get a significant amount of Vitamin D.
Vitamin D helps to soften skin and has proven to be beneficial to fighting disease. Missing out on your sun time (or going with sun block) may very well be detrimental to your overall health. Your skin is one of a very few sources of D, multi-vitamins and fortified milk are one of the very few that contain this essential vitamin. So go out in the sun, have fun, and remember don't get burned!
