While getting outdoors and soaking up the sun this summer, consider avoiding certain ingredients in sunscreens. Chemical sunscreens often contain aluminum as well as petrochemicals such as octinoxate, oxybenzone, avobenzone, octocrylene, octisalate, homosalate, benzophenone, and methyl anthranilate, all of which should be avoided. By putting these chemicals on your skin, they can be absorbed into your bloodstream where various adverse health impacts can occur. So just like any food or products you buy, take a look at the ingredients and if it is toxic, don’t buy it. Consider the many less risky alternatives as you adapt to a safer, healthier lifestyle for you and your loved ones. Learn more here : Worried About Sunscreen?
