Skin Cancer Prevention
The relevance of diet and taking vitamins to contracting skin cancer is neither common, nor an established fact. There are, however, a few things that are established causes of skin cancer. The only way to prevent contracting skin cancer would be to stay away from those causes. The main cause of skin cancer is to say that over 90 per cent of skin cancer patients contract the disease due to over exposure of unprotected skin to excessive sunlight. Since the sun's rays contain ultra violet radiation, which is the cause of cancer, if your skin is exposed to the sun excessively, you stand a greater chance of developing skin cancer. You must also be aware that people who have light skin, such as the Caucasians, have a greater chance of developing the disease than people who have pigmented skin, as pigmentation is what helps to prevent skin cancer. It is also established that exposure to x rays or high levels of radiation will cause skin cancer as well.
The best bet for a person trying to avoid this disease is to stay away from the causes of the disease. Primarily, you must ensure that you are never without sun protection when exposed to sun rays, as this has the greatest chance of leading to development of skin cancer.
