Guest guest Posted March 5, 2002 Report Share Posted March 5, 2002 Consider sunscreen. It was first introduced in the early 1940s as tanning lotion. The idea was that if you could stay in the sun without burning, you'd tan. A few years later, the melanoma rate began to rise. Improved tanning lotions came on the market in the early 1960s, and a few years after that, the melanoma rate zoomed up. http://www.motherjones.com/mother_jones/MJ98/wellbeing.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
