Recent studies show that people who use tanning beds are well aware of the health effects, namely skin cancer. So why are these educated consumers continuing to expose themselves to harmful UV rays? Experts debate addiction as a possible explanation.

A recent article on USAtoday.com, reported that dermatologist Steven Feldman believes that endorphins, aka the body's "feel good" molecules could be to blame. He says that endorphins are released in response to UV light creating a destressed, more relaxed feeling.

Stuart Gitlow, an addiction specialist, disagrees. He believes that there's a big difference between overindulgence in a bad habit and an addiction. Gitlow says, "The difference between addicts and non-addicts is that non-addicts learn that the lit match will burn them. Addicts, on the other hand, think, 'This time, the match won".
