The effects of sunlight exposure on mortality: a systematic review of epidemiological studies

2025-11-28

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Introduction: </h4> Current sun safety advice focuses on minimizing exposure to sunlight, due to the relationship between ultraviolet radiation and skin cancer. However, sunlight also has beneficial effects, and there are calls for guidance to reflect these alongside the harmful effects. To examine the net effect of harmful and beneficial aspects, we aimed to determine the association between sunlight exposure...
