You're absolutely right. So I know my personal risk for skin cancer is lower than somebody from Northern Ireland. my form of sun protection primarily is more for premature aging related to sun than it is skin cancer. Now, I'm not saying I'm immune to it by all means. I just know that my risk factor is a little bit less.

So my desire to protect myself from the sun now at this age is primarily to prevent premature aging.

i know i need some sun i feel better i perform better i sleep better i can focus more when i get normal sunlight so i know i try to get 20 30 minutes in a day unprotected and typically in the morning yeah typically in the morning i'll go for a run in the morning or late afternoon when i get home i'll play with the kids outside and i don't have any form of protection on i know my skin doesn't turn red i don't burn so i know my threshold

If you know, Drew, you could probably go outside and tell me you can be out in an hour and a half and your skin really won't turn red. That's your skin's tolerance. Now, that doesn't mitigate premature aging. You know, you still if you really want to prevent UV related changes that collect over time, then you take some form of sun protection. But in terms of your aging.

skin health risk, you have a higher tolerance than even myself per se. So I think just knowing, you know, individualized medicine, we talk about this all the time. And what does that mean? It's just knowing your body's specific capabilities and incapabilities. You know, I have patients who, ironically, my highest burden skin cancer patients are ones that avoid the sun more

like are deathly avoidant. They are not in the sun. The last time they were in the sun was 20 years ago, but they're on their 30th skin cancer. So those are things that go back to what we were talking about in that there's a huge genetic component to that, to it that we ignore as dermatologists. We say wear sunscreen, nothing will happen. Well, I don't know about that.

Everybody's going to age. Mother nature, father time will always win. Nobody's living finite, right? The question is, are you aging at your natural predetermined biologic clock or chronologic clock? Or are you accelerating by things that you're doing? And the example I give this, I show my kids this all the time. We take a grape and we put it in the sun.
