Can what I eat affect my sunburn risk?

Did you know that sticking to a healthy eating schedule can better protect you from ultraviolet induced damage. A mouse study that was conducted by the university of CA Irvine found that eating at abnormal times can disrupt the circadian rhythm of the skin and alters the potency of an enzyme that protects the skin against UV radiation., The study showed that the mice who were given food only during the day, instead of their normal nocturnal pattern of eating at night sustained more skin damage.
