How to prepare for sunbathing?

There is a lot of advice and it is worth using it. A proper diet, rich in antioxidants and antioxidant substances, will certainly help us. Eat as much as you can of oranges, carrots, tomatoes, pumpkins, red peppers, apricots and peaches, and you will provide your body with beta-carotene, which will protect you from free radicals.


Let's also get our skin used to greater exposure to the sun, take short sunbaths on the allotment or in the garden, consider using a solarium. Even if we have any doubts it's worth going into such a salon and consulting professionals about tanning. Solariums are staffed by people who know everything there is to know about tanning and are experts in the health aspects of UV radiation.


Another point is to review cosmetics, use preparations that contain radiation-protective filters and abandon the use of those that make the skin thinner and more delicate, and therefore more susceptible to the adverse effects of the sun. In this regard, it is worth taking advice from specialists, who will certainly advise you on which creams to use to prepare your skin well for sunbathing.


It is also a good idea to educate yourself and read various articles on tanning, look a little deeper, check the opinions of experts in the field of UV radiation, for example in tanning salons.


Overexposure to the sun is certainly associated with risk factors, mainly in terms of increased risk of various types of skin cancer. On the other hand, not getting enough sun is a big mistake according to researchers led by Pelle Lindquist of Sweden's Karolinska Institutet, avoiding the sun is a risk factor for death similar to smoking!


So we need to find the right balance. Let us not ban people from the beach or from solariums, but let us educate them on how to tan so that it is safe for their health.
