Summer is here and many are concerned about the UVradiation of the sun. Dr. Mercola wrote on one of his Blogs that one should toss sunscreens that contain the following questionable chemical ingredients:
Para amino benzoic acid...
Octyl salicyclate...
Avobenzone...
Oxybenzone...
Cinoxate...
Padimate O...
Dioxybenzone...
Phenylbenzimidazole...
Homosalate...
Sulisobenzone...
Menthyl anthranilate...
Trolamine salicyclate...
Octocrylene...
Our body needs unprotected sunlight exposure to protect us against sixteen different types of cancer. At least 15 years ago I already read this somewhere. Seems as if doctors are not aware of that. Dr. Mercola is the first who said that, at least the first I found.
We just have to expose our skin gradually to the sun. When we do not have the possibility to do that we need sunscreen or we have to put other cloths on.
I lived 5 years on a sailboat and used only once in a while a low potency sunscreen, with the figure 5 or so. At that time we did not have the high potency sunscreens. Personally I would never put them on my skin because they are loaded with chemicals.
The quality of our skin depends of the food we eat. Unprocessed (unheated) omega oils and raw vegetables are necessary for good skin.
For healthy skincare I would use: Coconut oil, sunflower oil, jojoba oil, shea butter and almond oil (don't know how good this is against the sun).
