We’ve all been told how important it is to protect our skin against the sun, to protect us from skin cancer…
But what if I told you, this isn’t even true?
As skin cancer rates have surged, it's time to uncover the truth behind commercial sunscreens….
Most commercial sunscreens not only suffocate your pores, limiting oxygen supply, but they also create the ideal acidic environment for cancer to thrive.
Dr. Otto Warburg, a two-time Nobel Prize winner, highlighted that cancer can only exist in a low-oxygen, high-acidic setting - exactly what commercial sunscreens create.
And guess what - the sun isn't the primary cause of skin cancer.
Renowned dermatologist and scientist Dr. Kenneth Nelder has proven that insufficient fruit and vegetable intake, along with the use of products containing carcinogens, are the real culprits.
These carcinogenic chemicals can act as endocrine disruptors, neurotoxins, and carcinogens, posing risks to your health - and yet they don’t even undergo sufficient safety reviews before hitting the shelves.
It’s important that we self-educate ourselves and not just assume, because it's being sold in our local supermarket, that it’s healthy for our bodies.
The market for sunscreens, sunblock and lotions, whether they spray, squirt or simply roll on, is BIG business... a multi-million dollar market that has the Western masses smothering themselves and their family with LOADS of chemicals that stop the sun from penetrating the skin. However, now we’re baking ourselves in toxic ingredients that are very detrimental to our health and missing out on important nutrients the sun naturally provides, such as Vitamin D.
People seriously believe that the giant ball of energy in the sky that is the source of all life on earth, that sustains every single creature that immediately makes you happier and better looking is bad for you...
Just 15 minutes of full body sun exposure 2-3 times a week is the fastest way to change your health.
Vitamin D is critical to immune, reproductive and heart health. The sun produces antimicrobials that fend off disease. It balances hormones & improves mood.
