Yes, thanks for starting this! I never went out in the sun, period, clothed or naked, for over 2 decades until I started eating raw foods a couple of months ago. Now I find myself gravitating to it and going outside as much as I can. I guess the next level will be to start sunbathing - I've got the S. Fla. sun, the time, and the privacy, so I may as well just get out there. Thanks again!

Oh, and ha on the ponies tag!

Thanks for the post, Lucy.
Keep on doing things that make you feel great, the simple things are the easiest to look forward to. Summer in Melbourne means cold and rain and I have a puppy that likes to jump on my head if I sit down on the grass in my back yard. Hehe.

it's all about covering yourself in coconut oil!

Right, she'll slip off my head. Maybe I should shave my head.

Hmm, thanks. :)

Eating lots of flax helps you not get burned or tanned, right?

I've been seeing a lot about people sunbathing and not being afraid of soaking up the sun. As we all grew up hearing that tanning is bad and always to use sunblock; I'm wondering what the reasoning is behind being raw that makes it ok? Is it the fact that our bodies are inhabited by less toxins they can handle the extra rays? I could probably do some research on google about it, which i will, but i'd like to hear some of your input too...

thanks friends!

So then the UV rays are not as damaging?

Hi Lilyloo,

I think that the super amount of omega-3's that we all consume through flax seeds help us not get burned as easily, however if I know that I am going to be out in the sun for longer than an hour like Lucy above, I will wear sunblock.

Peace.

I've heard that the best time to get UVB is between the hours of 10 AM to 2 PM, so maybe you want to wait an hour?

I've heard it's better when it is rising or setting - which is before ten and after six-ish.
