How to choose a safe sunscreen for adults, children, the environment (with no risk of cancer!)

In this week’s episode, I’m sharing how to choose a sunscreen that is safe for adults, children and the environment (and won't increase your risk of cancer!) 
 
I cover which sunscreen you should use that is safe and effective, without increasing your risk of cancer! 
 
And... 
 
☑️ The surprising research on tyrosinase inhibitors, a group of potentially cancer causing chemicals found in many expensive sunscreens 
☑️ A groundbreaking study by the FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) showing what happens when you put certain sunscreens on your skin and their effects within your body 
☑️ What is the best kind of sunscreen you can use that will protect your skin (and that of your children!) without causing cancer or harming the environment 
☑️ How to check whether the sunscreen you are currently using is a good option (or not!)
☑️ My personal favorite sunscreen, which also happens to be incredibly affordable and available in your local store if you are living in North America! 
 
The sad truth is that although we are getting better at slathering on the cream for sun protection, our rates of cancer are going up - and this episode will provide some insights as to why, and what to do about it!
 
 😎 If you are heading into Spring, Summer, or going on vacation somewhere sunny, this is one episode you can't afford to miss.
