SMR-UV Trial Summary

This trial investigates whether exposing human skin to low levels of UV light has an impact on blood markers related to stress. The findings could serve to reframe the importance of skin health and skin care.

Who is the study for?
Healthy women aged 20-50 with a BMI of ≥18.5 and <30, Fitzpatrick Skin Type I-III, non-smokers who don't use nicotine products. Participants should not be on medications or supplements that affect sun sensitivity, must maintain their usual diet and activity levels, and cannot be pregnant or lactating.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is examining the effects of low-level UV light exposure on stress-related blood markers in healthy women to understand the broader implications for skin health and overall well-being.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While this trial involves UV light exposure which typically can cause sunburn or long-term skin damage if overdone, it's designed to use low levels that are unlikely to have severe side effects.
