Tanning Beds' Harmful Effects Compared to Poisonous Arsenic!

Tanning beds, we've been told time and time again, are very very bad. But of course fake bake-devotees say they're better than nature's rays. Well, on Tuesday, international cancer experts reigned in, with an announcement published in the medical journal Lancet Oncology saying that tanning beds and the ultraviolet radiation they put out are beyond "bad" and in fact about as lethal as arsenic--yes, poison. They are on par with cigarettes in terms of cancer risk. In fact, the study showed that people who start self tanning before the age of 30 increase their chances of skin cancer by 75 percent!

Still have that need to appear to be sun-kissed? There's a natural way to do it. A way that will allow you to appear as golden as you'd like, but won't risk your life: Natural self-tanners.
