LUNG CANCER LINKED TO LACK OF SUN

Researchers have found a possible link between lung cancer and a lack of exposure to sunlight. The study by the University of California, San Diego, discovered that vitamin D - which is produced in the body when exposed to sunlight - can help prevent cancer. Experts found lung cancer rates were highest in countries furthest from the equator, where exposure to sunlight is lowest and they warned that although sunlight is still a major cause of skin cancer, in small doses it also has many positive effects.
