The sun is opium for the people
Scientists have found that UV dependence is similar to opiate dependence. And, having lost the sun, we experience a real withdrawal. Experts believe that the pleasure that mice and humans experience in the sun has evolved as a natural mechanism for stimulating exposure to ultraviolet radiation. The fact is that ultraviolet radiation plays an important role in the synthesis of vitamin D, which is vital for our body.
Researchers believe that 100 thousand years ago, the pursuit of the sun was vital for humans, especially those living in northern latitudes, and evolution developed a mechanism that forced humans to expose their skin to the sun's rays. The short life expectancy of a person at that time, accordingly, reduced the risk of skin cancer, simply because a person could have been eaten before he would have lived to such a disease.
