Stay out of the midday sun - if your shadow is longer than you are tall (the sun is low on the horizon), then you are probably ok

I'm a 45 year old white ass boy. Had an early stage one melanoma removed last spring. Before that I was undergoing treatment for Actinic keratosis, which is a precancerous growth that can turn into other skin cancers that are less deadly than melanoma. Been in the sun my whole life. Multiple blistering sunburns since I was a little kid. Ate seed oils my whole life. Dermatologist told me to stay out of the sun and use sunscreen. Fuck that. I changed my diet to a meat based Paul Saladino style diet. I make sure that I get moderate sun exposure on most days. I just cover up when I'm exposed for too long. I'm not sure if I'm doing right, but I understand the importance of warm sun on my skin. It's like a primal feeling. It feeds my soul. Just went in for a quarterly checkup and I was all good. I did have a couple AK's burned off, but they were there since the initial treatment though. My skin looks and feels healthier than ever. Not advice, just my experience. I hope it helps.
