VITAMIN D DEFICICENCY
Dark-skinned people's high concentration of melanin makes it more difficult
for them to produce enough vitamin D. In fact,dark pigment in the skin reduces the skin's
ability to synthesize vitamin D from sunlight by 95% (2).
To compensate Vitamin D deficiency of the skin, DermEden has developed for
the first time in cosmetics Daily Defense day creams enriched with "Vitamin D-like".
They recover barrier function further daily aggressions (UV, stress, pollution...), improve skin hydration (increase of filaggrine) and stimulate the Vitamin D receptor (VDR)*

RISK OF SKIN CANCER
Melanin has protected role against UV damage but doesn't prevent skin cancer.
Even if vast majority of melanomas occur in fair-skinned people, skin cancer fatality rates are higher
among black-skinned people than other ethnic groups,probably due to a later diagnosis and
treatment(3).
