What Do You Know About Sunscreen?

Let’s chat… it’s 20 minutes, and no-cost. https://calendly.com/pamzschmidt/bb

Here’s a secret tip I wish everyone knew earlier
Looking for Summer Skin Care (that’s non-toxic)?
Sunscreens AREN’T the healthiest way to protect your skin. I’m sad to tell you, my friend, that sunscreens are actually TOXIC.

The worst toxic chemicals in sunscreens are:
Avobenzone- allergic reactions, endocrine disruption, blocks the effects of testosterone in the cell.
Oxybenzone-endocrine disruption, organ system toxicity, contact allergies, and photoallergies,
Octocrylene-readily absorbs through the skin at levels about 14 times the FDA’s cutoff for systemic exposure.
Octinoxate is linked to endocrine disruption & reproductive toxicity
Homosalate: hormone disruption and it may also enhance the absorption of pesticides. This ingredient is persistent in the environment, meaning it doesn’t break down readily.
Nano Titanium Dioxide and Nano Zinc Dioxide in sunscreens.They tend to have formaldehyde and harsh preservatives., and can be carcinogenic if inhaled. Nano Titanium Dioxide is linked with accelerating the aging process of your skin.

“But… doesn’t the sun The Big “C”? Actually the sun isn’t the problem. Instead, look at these factors affecting skin “C”:
Vitamin D deficiencies (sunscreen blocks skin’s Vitamin D production)
Highly processed foods (seed oils, sugar, synthetic chemicals, food dyes)
The eyes aren’t getting enough natural sunlight (we need 10-20 minutes of early morning or sunset light, no sunglasses)

I suspect you’re asking, “So what am I supposed to DO instead of using sunscreen????” Here’s my tips:
Limit sun exposure (15-20 minutes, 3 days per week)
Use light clothing to protect your skin
Eat foods rich in skin supporting compounds (leafy greens, nuts, berries, green tea, apples, carrots)
Get Vitamin D rich foods (fish, eggs, mushrooms)

“Are there ANY non-toxic sunscreens?”
Yes, there are quite a few. Zinc-The best way to find something is by learning to read labels. It is an important habit we have to do as part of detoxing our lives. Amazon and company websites list ingredients, and that’s a place to start. My favorite website is EWG.org, and they give a letter grade (A-F) for sunscreens. \

So, my friend, I’m encouraging you to think carefully before rubbing sunscreen lotion or spray onto your skin. What goes ON our skin is going IN our body within hours of applying. It’s time to detox our bodies AND our bathroom cupboards.
