TRUE or FALSE

 

Getting enough Vitamin D may reduce the risk of many kinds of cancer.

TRUE.  Research increasingly supports this conclusion.  Getting enough vitamin D may reduce one’s risk of colon, breast and ovarian cancers by up to 50%.

Studies have shown that indoor tanning customers have higher vitamin D levels than non-tanners.

TRUE.  While indoor tanning industry is a cosmetic service, one undeniable side-effect is vitamin D production.  Research shows that people who use indoor tanning equipments that emits UVB-which most tanning equipment does, also produce vitamin D.

New Research shows that nearly 90% of North Americans don’t get enough vitamin D.  Can indoor tanning help them increase their vitamin D production?

YES.  Studies have shown that indoor tanning patrons have higher vitamin D blood levels than non-tanners.

Can humans get enough vitamin D through supplements alone?

Probably Not.  Research suggests that humans make 90% of their vitamin D through sun exposure.

Calcium needs vitamin D in order to aid in bone maintenance.

Absolutely TRUE.  Getting enough calcium will help prevent osteoporosis and bone mass loss, but ONLY if you get enough vitamin D, which facilitates the absorption of calcium.

CLEAN THAT EYEWEAR

 

Why do the Sales Associates tell me to disinfect my eyewear?

Even if somebody is the sole user of personal eyewear, the sweat, dirt, old skin and make-up residue can breed bacteria.

You can disinfect eyewear by using hot soapy water, or by using the sanitize solution we provide in the rooms, just spray them down and wipe them off with a towel.  You should do this once a week.

SKIN TYPE

Knowing your skin type is the key to maximizing the protective benefits of tanning indoors while minimizing the risk of sunburn or skin damage.

Each of us is born with a certain ability to produce melanin, the protein that causes a tan appearance and natural protection against too much UV light.  It is the amount of melanin that determines skin type and the length of exposure that is best for you.

The staff at Tan ‘N Tone may ask you questions regarding your ability to tan in the past or your ancestral background.  This information is helpful in determining the correct exposure time to avoid overexposure and possible sunburn.
