The advice that we have given here about avoiding malignant melanoma has to be set firmly within a reasonable perspective. Melanoma is a risk that can be eliminated by simple changes in lifestyle for ourselves and our children. Our advice should not be interpreted as meaning that the outdoor life, recreation, sport and summer holidays are necessarily harmful. Simple measures to avoid sunburn will mean that all of these can be enjoyed to the full without incurring risk. There are good reasons for wishing for this, and not only because of the great pleasure enjoyed by millions in outdoor recreations and pastimes – it is recognized that fit and happy people are less likely to get all sorts of diseases, not least cancer. We will discuss briefly the topic of exercise and work patterns in relation to cancer. It is sufficient to say here that retaining an outdoor lifestyle and having a good time is quite compatible with a low risk of melanoma.
