Tanning is NOT Addictive!

Here are the facts:

Humans are not addicted to UV exposure, we are attracted to it. By nature's design, we are supposed to get regular UV exposure to be healthy.
To say anyone is addicted to UV is like saying they are addicted to air, food or water. We are naturally attracted to these things because we need them.
Vitamin D is now linked to lower risk of most cancers, heart disease and other disorders. The only way to achieve high enough vitamin D levels for this prevention is through regular UV exposure. Moderation is the Key!
Not a single study anywhere in the world shows that UV exposure in a non-burning fashion (controlled atmosphere / tanning unit) is a significant factor for skin damage.
This was a junk study. They passed out a questionnaire to 421 people, all of which were college students. Of those people, 229 were tanners. Of those 229 tanners, 30% answered in a way that the researchers say made them meet the "criteria for addiction." There was no individual analysis, it is all based on a survey given to college students.
