Lightbulb well...

It is disturbing but people who use sunscreen tend to get MORE skin cancer than others.

example:
http://expertvoices.nsdl.org/newstop...ing-sunscreen/

You can google this... and it is true. For a while it was thought that PABA in sunscreens was the culprit, but even though that ingredient was replaced,
the cancers still are higher in those using sunscreens.

It is a confusing complex subject...and all the answers are not in yet.
One theory is that low Vit D levels in the skin, are to blame.
