RESPECT THE SUN
but respect what you put on YOUR BODY more
And remember, what goes on, goes in
I recently posted about how respecting the sun, building sun exposure slowly, using a natural MINERAL BASED sunscreen, removing seed oils, taking Astaxanthin, and how NOT wearing sunglasses is the way to go for sun protection
To be clear, never EVER let yourself burn - and sorting gut inflammation by removing crappy food and only using healthy oils will help your sun resistance (and overall health!).
I also explained that more toxic chemicals that over burden our liver is NOT SAFE - and causes more cancer than the sun itself if you respect the sun (IMO) - even though a couple of influencer dermatologists disagreed (they don’t trust evolution obv)
Whilst there are many nasty chemicals in sunscreen that I wouldn’t put on my skin (because we absorb them!) Benzene is a VERY important one to keep away from!
☠️ Benzene somehow found its way into these products (and MANY OTHER sunscreens!) along the supply chain, probably as a “contaminant” ;)
It is an IARC group 1 carcinogen and has been linked with blood cancers like acute myeloid leukaemia
In addition, there are endocrine disruptors in sunscreen that we should look out for:
🔬A study in JAMA showed that chemical ingredients from sunscreen were detected in the bloodstream after one single-use, sometimes for days (up to 21) after
👦🏼observational studies showed ingredients like oxybenzone associated with lower testosterone in teenage boys
And researching online will also show you multiple reasons why not to lather this crap all over your skin or your precious children!
I trust @greenpeopleuk & the brand Jason FYI (no affiliation)
Be careful who you trust, and if EVER IN DOUBT trust natural products (mineral based sunscreen) not chemical companies or outdated government guidelines
See @dr_jenny_goodman book “staying alive in toxic times” for more details & get your copy signed @healthoptimisationsummit next weekend (and make new healthy friends)
