Has natural medical science developed a safe and effective sun protective product?


All sunscreens contain some chemicals which can be a problem. Some are more dangerous than others. You want to avoid parabens, benzophenone, homosalate and octyl-methoxycinnamate. Furthermore, most sunscreens are now made with NANO particles. Avoid these completely!!

Dr. Mercola believes that no sunscreens are truly safe. You can read his article here:
