It may be hard for you to hear but we have been lied to about the sun, the source of all life on earth. Big corporation have convinced you that the sun is bad for you and will cause you to age worse but that simply not true
Some benefits of sunlight are:
1. Circadian rhythm regulation
2. Vitamin D synthesis
3. Red light protection
4. Mood and mental health improvement
5. Blood pressure and immune support
6. A tan
I bet most of you have seen the picture of the trucker who only got sun on one side of his face. Many don’t know the context
The glass in the windshield blocks UVB rays (which are essential for producing vitamin D) and filters out some UVA and infrared/red light. This leaves only a different, more damaging type of light hitting the driver's face, creating "excess oxidative stress" without the protective effects of full sunlight
Now, I’m not saying you should bake out in the sun for hours especially if you have fair skin, but a good amount of sunlight is perfect for many.
Finally, if you’re not fully convinced, the least you could do is buy a mineral based sunscreen like zinc sunscreen. Regular sunscreen like banana boat for example has many harsh chemicals.
