Tanning is not just for the young, Because UV rays are essential for the body to produce vitamin D, mature adults at risk forosteoporosis can gain health benefits from moderate tanning. Vitamin D is essential for absorbing calcium to prevent osteoporosis onset and is essential for bone health.
A study called "Musculoskeletal Disorders" published in BioMedCentral journal looked at the impact of vitamin D on bone mineral density (BMD) in women taking bisphosphonates for osteoporosis. The study found that vitamin D made the drug work better, even after treatment was stopped.
Tanning also helps the body regulate the hormones serotonin and melatonin, which aid in healthy sleep cycles. Problem with sleeping are wide-spread among mature adults.
Skin concerns related to tanning occur when sessions are long or too frequent. Lengthy sessions are not necessary to get the health benefits of tanning. Five to ten minutes once or twice a week will improve vitamin D and hormone balance. Mature adults often find that home lamps are more convenient than visiting a tanning salon. Monthly financing at www.wolfftanningbed.com makes owning a home lamp an affordable option. If you have health issues, always check with your doctor before tanning.
