The incidence of non-melanoma skin cancer (NMSC) in Britain has been increasing over the past 50 years. This has been attributed to increased sunlight exposure, but the increased exposure has not been quantified, and in any case, much of the increase in incidence has occurred in those parts of the body, mainly the head and neck, that have always been exposed to sunlight. There is evidence that increased dietary fat intake has increased the sensitivity of the skin to the carcinogenic potential of sunlight, particularly in causing squamous cell tumours.
