There have been many public health recommendations for avoiding UV radiation exposures. This is primarily due to concerns about skin cancer and especially melanoma, the most serious type of skin cancer. However, UV radiation is also known as the primary source of vitamin D and other compounds needed for good health. This brief commentary lists several of the many important recent studies of adverse health effects associated with low sun exposure, including some specific cancers, multiple sclerosis, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, autism, Alzheimer's disease, and age-related macular degeneration. Our conclusion is that non-burning UV exposure is a health benefit and-in moderation-should be recommended as such.
已经有许多关于避免紫外线辐射暴露的公共卫生建议。这主要是由于对皮肤癌的担忧，尤其是黑色素瘤，这是最严重的皮肤癌类型。然而，紫外线也被认为是维生素 D 和其他对健康有益的化合物的主要来源。本简要评论列出了与低阳光照射相关的许多重要的近期不良健康影响的研究，包括一些特定的癌症、多发性硬化症、糖尿病、心血管疾病、自闭症、阿尔茨海默病和与年龄相关的黄斑变性。我们的结论是，非灼伤性紫外线暴露对健康有益，适度推荐这种暴露是有益的。
