It may harm your kidneys! It’s not the natural sunlight and can be harmful to your skin and to your lungs and kidneys. In the body’s energy system, the Lung is the mother of the Kidney and keeps nourishing the Kidney. Therefore, the kidneys are also affected by lacking nourishment from the skin and lungs. World Health Organization, as well as Chinese Government, has documents about the damaging effects of Tanning bed.
