It’s more than a tan line or "little pink" on your shoulders—it’s a response to DNA changes.When UVB rays hit your skin, they can physically break the bonds in your DNA, effectively creating mutations & changes in your DNA. A suntan is really your body’s response to DNA mutation.

A new study published in Alzheimer’s Research & Therapy reveals that "SuperAgers"—adults in their 80s and 90s with memory performance matching people decades younger—do not achieve exceptional cognitive health simply through low inherited risk for Alzheimer's disease. 1/3
