Melanoma Is Caused by Our Environment!

Melanoma isn’t limited to sun-exposed skin. While overdone UV radiation from the sun and tanning beds (which aren't natural and should never be used) can contribute to melanoma, this cancer can and does develop in places that rarely or never sees daylight like the soles of the feet, palms, under nails and the scalp under thick hair,. These cases remind us that melanocytes (the pigment-producing cells) exist throughout the body and other triggers play a larger role. 

I once knew someone who died from melanoma involving the lung. This simply highlights how aggressive and unpredictable this can be. It further reinforces that the environment of today is a trigger for this cancer and plays a much larger role and no amount of sunscreen can shield you.

Thoughts?

Much Love, Lynn
