“The Sun is still a great source of Vitamin D!”
Sunshine is a vital ingredient for staying healthy and is your best source for essential Vitamin D. Sunlight also provides you with numerous other health benefits such as fighting depression and protection against several types of cancer. We all need regular sun exposure. However, there are occasions where it is possible you may overdose. Excess sun exposure that causes sunburns is something you want to avoid, as it is a well-proven risk factor for skin cancer. It is the burning that actually contributes to skin cancer. Not the sun itself.
The Toxic Ingredients Concealed in a Typical Bottle of Sunscreen:
Sunscreen is regulated by the FDA as an over-the-counter drug because it contains several "active" ingredients. The debate over toxicity of these active ingredients is still a controversy.
One study found that the main chemical used in sun lotions to filter out ultraviolet light may be TOXIC -- and the chemical's toxicity doubled when exposed to sunlight. Octyl methoxycinnamate (OMC), which is present in 90 percent of sunscreen brands, was found to kill mouse cells even at low doses in a study by Norwegian scientists. When researchers shone a lamp for two hours to simulate midday sunshine, even more cells died.
And a study in the April 2004 Journal of Chromatography found that there is significant penetration of all sunscreen agents they studied into the skin. So, it's a fair to assume that when you use sunscreen your body is absorbing synthetic chemicals.
And if you follow the recommendations on the sunscreen's label to apply generous amounts of the product every few hours, it's likely you will be absorbing your fair share of potentially toxic chemicals. It takes a stretch of the imagination to believe that all of these chemicals will not have any effect on your system. Be safe and protect yourself from overexposure to the sun or harmful sun blocks.
Happy Health!
