BRISBANE, Australia, June 4 (UPI) -- For those who spend time in the sun, daily use of sunscreen slows the aging process of skin, along with preventing skin cancer, Australian researchers say.
Professor Adele Green of Queensland Institute of Medical Research, who led colleagues at the University of Queensland's School of Population Health in conducting the study, said they tracked 900 people, half who regularly used SPF15plus sunscreen on their face, arms and hands and the other half who used sunscreen in their usual way, if at all. All were age 55 and younger and part of a larger study.
