Good News: Omega-3 Supplements Could Prevent Skin Cancer Study

I recommend for everyone to get some sun exposure, especially in the summer and take some vitamin D supplementation for good health. 
If you are worried about sun exposure giving you skin cancer, there are ways to reduce that risk, and here is a report of one way. This works because it helps to reduce the inflammatory Omega 6/3 ratio closer to the healthy 2/1. In Canada, the average Omega 6/3 ratio is a horrible 10/1. 

BYW you can have your own Omega 6/3 ratio measure with a simple blood test.





Taking a regular dose of omega 3 rich fish oils, can boost skin immunity to sun light, and could help to protect against skin cancer by blocking the sun's ability to suppress immune response. Read more here.
