First something you should know
---=== Click Here ===---
Since sunscreen came about, skin cancer rates have gone up in this country.
Yes thats right, up. No one can (or will) explain why skin cancer in tropical countries, where the suns rays are the strongest, is lower then skin cancer rates in the US.
Why stay out of the sun, when the sun is our richest source of vitamin D, an important cancer fighter?
The sun helps your body to produce Melanin which is your bodies way to protect your skin from cancer by turning it brown.
Sunscreen blocks this process.
Octyldimethyl-PABA (OD-PABA)
Benzophenone-3 (Bp-3)
Homosalate (HMS)
Octyl-methoxycinnamate (OMC)
4-methyl-benzylidene camphor (4-MBC)
Go ahead and get your bottles I'll wait
These items have been know to cause cancer
When you are in the hot sun and you begin to perspire
your pores open up and in short, absorb anything that is on your skin. The best protection for your skin is ascorbic acid which is nothing more then powdered Vitamin C.
When your skin absorbes vitamin C it makes it healthy while protecting it from UV-A and UV-B.
Mix it with water, oil (olive, etc.) or cream (glycerin, etc.). Apply it frequently.
