What is the health disadvantage to having extra melanin in your body?
November 1st, 2008
Ava asked:
For my biology class we get bonus points if we find out what the HEALTH disadvantage to having extra melanin (eumelanin) in the body is. I’ve searched everywhere and cannot find the answer. The only information I did find is cosmetological reasons for complications with laser surgery. But I need the health reason. Any help will be greatly greatly appreciated.
-Thankyou,
Ava
P.S.
I need the major reason why it is a disadvantage.
