(EMAILWIRE.COM, January 29, 2010 ) Chicago, IL -- ESB Tanning Systems educates consumers about alternative uses for home tanning beds, including some of the potential health benefits of different types of light therapy.

"Home tanning beds can be a part of a healthy lifestyle," said ESB Tanning Systems Vice President, Tom Batchos. "That is especially true during the winter months when there is less sunlight available to help consumers achieve optimum natural vitamin D levels. The key to the safe and healthy use of tanning beds is moderation."

Government sources note that vitamin D deficiencies are potentially linked to diseases including cancer, osteoporosis, and diabetes. Home tanning beds allow the user greater control over their UV radiation exposure, enabling them to take advantage of the vitamin D synthesis while minimizing their risk of burning. According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH) Office of Dietary Supplements, the moderate use of tanning beds can be an effective solution for reaching adequate levels of vitamin D synthesis -- specifically the moderate use of tanning beds emitting 2%-6% UVB radiation.

"Despite the name, home tanning beds are not only for tanning," said Batchos. "Light therapy is used to help treat many conditions such as using UVA and UVB radiation to treat psoriasis, red light therapy for skin care photo rejuvenation, and bright light therapy in an attempt to treat seasonal affective disorder (SAD)."

ESB Tanning Systems advocates the responsible use of home tanning beds, tanning booths, and stand-up tanning systems. In addition to offering home tanning equipment, ESB Tanning Systems also offers lamps for different types of light therapy as well as skincare products like Afterburn sprays and gels, moisturizers, plus SPF 30 lip balm to protect the lips during tanning. ESB Tanning Systems' skincare products are formulated from natural ingredients such as natural botanicals, antioxidants, 100% pure aloe extract, and vitamin E.

Disclaimer: This information is not intended as medical advice to prevent, treat, or cure any disease. Please consult a healthcare provider before pursuing any form of light therapy to evaluate individual needs and concerns.
