the problem with people 'doing their own research' is that they may not know the difference between melatonin and melanin (a mistake that would get u 0 marks at gcse) an theres no one to check them, an then people are taking medical advice for depression or their kids autism
So in a nutshell, we have photo receptors in our eyes which send a signal to the brain to initiate production of melanin, which as you know protects the skin and an effect of that is we become more melanated (tanned). So when we wear sunglasses, we prevent that process from happening and that’s one of the main reasons people burn.
So the main principles are we should be in the sun more often. One way we can reduce being burned is by sun gazing. Or basically going out into the sun early, whether sun ‘rise’ or super early before it’s too harsh. The eyes then initiate the melanin production, which has an effect on our hormones and links to vitamin D, TRY THIS IS WORKED FOR ME 🌞
