People need to know the truth about the sun and skin cancer, as well as how toxic conventional sun creams are to the body.
The fact is regular exposure to the sun actually protects you.
Studies show that melanoma mortality actually decreases after UV exposure.
Additionally, melanoma lesions do not tend to appear primarily on sun-exposed skin, which is why man made sunscreens have been proven ineffective at preventing it.
Exposure to sunlight, particularly UVB, is protective against melanoma (the deadliest form of skin cancer) or rather the vitamin D your body produces in response to UVB radiation is protective.
The following passage comes from The Lancet: “Paradoxically, outdoor workers have a decreased risk of melanoma compared with indoor workers, suggesting that chronic sunlight exposure can have a protective effect.”
This goes in accordance to the fact that the lowest levels of skin cancer are in those countries where people are exposed to sun the most, and the highest levels of skin cancer being found in countries where people are exposed to the sun the least.
Obviously I don’t advocate getting burnt and you have to take the necessary steps to ensure this doesn’t happen such as:
– spending time in the shade during the hottest parts of the day,
– wearing a hat to cover your head and face,
– only spending 20 to 30 minute periods in the sun
– covering up parts of your body that are more sensitive to sun exposure
However, that being said, full body exposure to the sun has tremendous health benefits and there are many natural sunscreens you can use such as carrot oil that are more effective than their toxic counterparts. Dr Mercola and Kabana also do great formulas and there are other non toxic sun creams/blocks you can get.
For after sun care nothing beats pure Aloe Vera straight from the plant for soothing, healing and regenerating the skin.

P.S. I wrote this article because on a personal level it’s very frustrating seeing a parent slather copious amounts of toxic, endocrine disrupting, carcinogenic, health destroying chemical sun cream all over their child multiple times a day.
Especially as they are carrying out this action out of pure love, only wanting the best for their child, and are trying protect their health.
