KIDS-VS-SUN Who are the most vulnerable to sun damage? With the worldwide research undertaken in sun damage and public education offered in this area you would really have to be living under a rock not to know that over exposure to the sun is damaging to the human body especially our skin.

This occurs with an increase in the activity and number of melanocytes, the cells that make the pigment melanin. Melanin helps to block out damaging UV rays up to a point, which is why people with naturally darker skin are less likely to get sunburned, while people with lighter skin are more likely to burn.
