    Sunburn – Survival Guide - Understanding the Burn - UV Radiation, Skin Damage, and Why We React Differently
    Jan 20 2026
    Episode 1: “Understanding the Burn – UV Radiation, Skin Damage, and Why We React Differently” explains what sunburn really is: an inflammatory response to ultraviolet radiation that damages skin cells and DNA long before redness appears. Julia Cartwright breaks down the differences between UVA, UVB, and UVC rays, why symptoms are delayed, and how factors like skin type, genetics, age, medications, and environment influence burn risk. The episode connects single severe burns to long-term consequences such as premature aging and skin cancer, emphasizing that tanning is a sign of damage, not health. By revealing how sun exposure quietly accumulates over time, the episode reframes sunburn as a preventable but serious health risk.
