June 22, 2010 - Indoor Tanning, Outdoor Tanning and Risk of Melanoma

The following study on the risk of melanoma from tanning was recently published in the journal of Cancer, Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention. The findings are worth a discussion and I have provided both some quotes from the study and some commentary.

Lazovich et al. Indoor Tanning and Risk of Melanoma: A Case-Control Study in a Highly Exposed Population. Cancer, Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention 2010 19 (6); 1557-68

"Our study has several important findings. First, we found that melanoma occurred more frequently among indoor tanners compared with persons that never engaged in this activity."

"Second, we found a strong dose-response relationship between melanoma risk measured by total hours, sessions, or years."

"Third, we found an increased risk of melanoma with use of each type of tanning device as well as with each period of tanning use, suggesting that no device could be considered "safe".

Dr. Chestnut's revolutionary protocols for wellness and prevention are based on over 24 years of scientific research regarding the human genetic requirements with respect to nutrition, exercise, thoughts and emotions. He has spent over two decades researching and finding the answers to what he identifies as 'The Two Fundamental Questions Regarding Human Health'. 'The Two Fundamental Questions Regarding Human Health' are: Why are we sick? and What is required to get and stay well?

Dr. Chestnut's concept of Eat Well - Move Well - Think Well® as the lifestyle foundations for wellness and prevention have not only defined what the practice of wellness is, they have simplified it for both patients and clinicians.

His latest books, The Innate Diet®, Innate Physical Fitness®, and The Innate State of Mind® have set the standard for evidence-based wellness care.
