Not everyone gets skin cancer. And different skin tones burn/tan differently. And some skin cancers may not show til people get to their 70's or 80's.

However, just because we don't SEE the cancer does not mean it isn't there.

What you see may NOT be real. Liz

My thoughts are that there is a genetic component to it. Kinda like some smoke and get Lung Cancer in their 40's or 50's and others like my Gramps who smoked every day until he died in his 90's and never had any Cancer...

There's also some foods that you can eat that make their way inro the Skin Cells and act like a shield and/or anti-oxidant to protect them from the suns uva/uvb rays like Brocolli, Tomatoes, Grapes, Blueberries, Cantalopes, Oranges and Carrots etc...

Also Oilive Oil makes ints way into the Skin Cell Membranes and act as an protector too....
