FACTS ABOUT UV LIGHT

UV Light & Our Biology

The impact of UV Light on our biology is so important that it is broken into 3 distinct spectrums (UVA, UVB and UVC).

UVB

We are focused on the immune-modulating properties of UVB.

UVB Stabilizes Our Immune System

Our Immune system hungers for UV light - "Following exposure of humans to sunlight to phototherapy, there are alterations in the number, phenotype and function of circulating blood cells."

UVB Treatment ≠ to Melanoma

"Multiple studies specifically assessing the carcinogenic potential of NB-UVB did not find an increased risk of skin cancer in treated patients. Unfortunately, there are few prospective studies assessing the risk of skin cancer in patients with psoriasis treated with NB-UVB. Because of the theoretical possibility of this risk, physicians should use caution in prescribing NB-UVB for patients with a history of melanoma, multiple nonmelanoma skin cancers, arsenic intake, or exposure to ionizing radiation."
