Clients can have a maximum of 15 minutes in the booth, which represents approximately four to five hours of sun "but without the burning rays,» Hodgins said. Some clients use sunscreens or accelerators. Hodgins says a popular ques- tion about such tanning methods is: "Is it good for me?" She points out that a doctor in the field of dermatology in Germany says: (%ow-pressure UTVA (indoor. tan- ning) causes no damà ge' to, the skin, as far as we can tell from the research we've done this far." However, she adds, a factor that must be considered is that all tanning units contain UVB, and the concern is how much. An amount over one per cent can cause skin damage- which will appear as dried, leathery skin, or skin that becomes wrin- kled and okier much earlier. Skin conditioned properly will keep any possible--daniagé to a minimum, says Hodgins.

Jane is medical director of Mobile Industrial Health Services, one of the health services offered at effective tredtment for acne and psoriasis, shesays, noting that sun-tannin g indoors is- actually safer than lying in natural sun- light. Sunburn, not tanning, does the damage, she says. "It's the ignorance and m is- understanding on how to tan properly that has caused a fear of the sun,» Hodgins says.

Smoking is a double hazard for women - for them and the children they bear. Cigaret smoke in the mother's bloodstream alters the heart rate, blood pressure, oxygen supply and acid balance of the unborn infant. A pregnant woman who smokes two packs a day blocks off the equivalent of 40 per cent of the oxygen supply te the fetus. Pregnant women who -smoke have more stillbirths, sotnos abortions and lowweihtbabies than do non-smoking mothers. HOW TO QUJ7P The cigaret companies have spent billions of dollars and half a century trying to link smoking to the beautiful things in life. Their ads have been banned from radio and television, but they are trying hard everywhere else to keep up the brainwash. Seeing through this barrage is a major requirement for quitting. What smoking is'really linked to is disability and death. Quitting is not deprivation, but an advantage. You can quit 'cold turkey" or set a date two weeks ahead. You can record how many cigarets you smoke and when, then you can try to smoke haîf as many. You can ùiake a part to quit with a fr-iend. You can go te a withdrawal clinic. You have te, find the way that works for you. But first, you have te, want te quit. Once you really want te, you'l find your own way te, do it. The minute you step smoking, your body- will go te work te, repair some of the damage cigarets have -inflicted. Over 3 1/2-. million Canadians have quit smoking. THE FAC¶S for non- smokers *64 per cent of Canadians 15 years of age and over are non-smokers. * Banishing cigaret use in the presence of non-smokers should be considered a minimum level of protection. lMUu M b ýu MMU IUI MMMIbUI MMUl - î Gregory C.
