[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]When I went to Sardinia, I was fascinated by how insanely tan the locals were. Then we ran out of sunscreen and went to the local large grocery story to find some and the highest they had was SPF6, in an oil. So I was curious as to their life expectancy, since I thought do they have a higher rate of skin cancer? No, it's a literal blue zone (like Greece and Japan), with a very high life expectancy, super tan and all. [/quote] Tan = a reaction to sun. The Sardinians' dark skin protects against sun damage so they need less sunscreen. [/quote] I am PP who went there. I am sure there is truth to that. They were so tan many looked purple, which whenever you see someone like that in the US you think tanning bed addict. Like insanely over tan. Lovely people, excellent food. We loved it. But you have to bring your own sunscreen bc they only sell up to Coppertone Oil 6. [/quote]
