Tea and Skin Cancer

[prosodic]

Skin cancer runs in my family. I've always been rather paranoid about getting it, particularly since I have so many moles, and because I fit the high risk profile (fair skin, fair hair, runs in the family), but lately, I've been even more paranoid and I'm trying to be more diligent about slathering on sunscreen on a regular basis.

It was good to read this today.

Although I have had a few bad burns in my life, so I don't know how much tea will actually help me. But hopefully, it will help some.

Just another reason why I'm glad I drink tea.

I'm lucky in that I can pretty much see all of my moles. I don't really have any on my back. They're all on the front of my body, with the exception of one on the lower left side of my back, but I can see that one. I actually keep my eye on that one in particular, because it's got a dark red middle and a pink edge. But I've had 2 doctors look at it, and neither one of them thought it looked suspicious.
