Great that the health minister is interested in stricter regulation of indoor tanning and to ban advertising. www.vg.no/i/4BAeqg?utm...

There is no safe limit for UV radiation from sunbeds
Using tanning beds before age 35 increases your risk of melanoma by 75%. ☀️🚫 There’s no such thing as a “safe tan” from a tanning bed. Protect your skin—skip the booth and opt for sun-safe habits instead.
