Evaluating your likely current (and near future) state of health means taking into account the risk factors — such as lifetime sun exposure — that affect you. Our medical diagnosis tool, The Analyst™, identifies major risk factors by asking the right questions.
During your lifetime, how much have you been exposed to the sun?
Possible responses:
→ Don't know→ Limited exposure to sun, rarely enough to sunburn → Moderate exposure / occasional light sunburn → Significant exposure / many light sunburns → Extreme exposure / many severe sunburns |
A lack of natural vitamin D (obtained through exposure to sunlight) increases the risk of getting osteoporosis later in life.
Because risk increases according to total lifetime sun exposure, older people are much more likely to develop actinic keratoses.
