Download here the New Press release!
Veldhoven, 11th December 2009 (SRF) – According to a statement by the Scientific Advisory Board of the Dutch Health Council, there is nothing wrong with tanning outdoors or in the solarium...as long as it’s in moderation. As the scientific panel continues in its letter to the Dutch Health Council which deals with health and consumer protection, on no account can it be guaranteed that the use of solariums is accompanied by a higher risk of skin cancer.

Sunlight Research Forum

The aim of The Sunlight Research Forum is to help bring to the fore, the latest medical and scientific information on the effects of moderate UV exposure on man. It takes time, often decades, for new scientific ideas to be accepted and assimilated, first into the general body of scientific knowledge and finally into policy. We want to reduce this time to a minimum so that the benefits of research can lead to a better understanding of UV effects on man and will become available to the public without any unnecessary delay. We hope to provide policy makers with correct information on which to base national health policy and individuals with better information on which to base choices about their lifestyles.
New research and well founded ideas on moderate UV exposure both indoor and outdoor will be presented and discussed in the Sunlight Research Forum by people working in the health disciplines, by academics and by journalists. Reports will be published on this website and when possible, in a hard copy format for free distribution free to the media and to libraries.

The Sunlight Research Forum is a not-for-profit organisation based in The Netherlands. Main site: www.sunlightresearchforum.eu
