    Are you a shill for the sunscreen industry or what? Have you not heard that about 70% of American kids are deficient in vitamin D, which means their bones are going soft and their risk for later health problems is extremely high? Kids and adults need to use less sunscreen, not more. We're more likely to die of colon or breast cancer caused in part by vitamin D deficiency than of skin cancer. Honestly, will you people just shut up? (I will never, ever subscribe to SELF magazine again. You're all in the pockets of one industry or another.)

    Far infrared (FIR) is a specific segment of electromagnetic light energy occurring naturally in the suns spectrum, it has the ability to penetrate, refract, radiate and reflect. This energy is absolutely essential for the survival of human beings and all living entities. Try an FIR portable sauna to detox, rejuvenate the body, and to stimulate weight loss. I've bought a portable infrared sauna from eloofaimports.com and using it 30 minutes a day. I'm feeling great!
