Sunscreen Safety

Sun and Sunscreen

​

Are Your kids playing safe in the sun?

Having fun in the sun and doing it safely is easier than you think. It’s probably not what you think either.

We’ve taught to believe that sunscreen will protect us, especially our children from melanoma, or skin cancer. Despite decades of sunscreen use, those who use the most sunscreen (Americans and Australians) have the highest rates of skin cancer.

Sunscreen has come under fire, due to the natural health community of physicians and nutritional leaders, exposing the cancer-causing ingredients present in virtually every commercial brand.

Why have we been misinformed to the detriment of our family’s health? Profits. Chemical industries (such as Johnson & Johnson) do not value human life. In fact they pay out billions every year to family’s poisoned and killed by their products.

The Environmental Working Group is our powerful ally

and protection against the toxic foods, personal care, cleaning products, etc. You’ll find that most “chemical products” increase your risk of reproductive problems, allergies, birth defects, cancer, and more. In addition, most commercial products pollute our soil, drinking water and the planet.

Wear clothing and a hat

Avoid the hottest hours of the day

Use a safe sunscreen (see Eden’s Picks below)

Keep your pH at an optimal level
