S is for sunscreen, but also the sun. Both give you cancer, isn’t that fun.

Maybe they read something about the titanium dioxide contained in some sunscreen products. There is some research indicating that its not as safe as we thought and that it might be carcinogenic.

It might be but sunburn is definitely carcinogenic.

This and nowadays (at least here in Europe) you find lots of sun screen without titanium dioxide.They all habe a kabel with corals in it (they call it in hawaian agreement?). So its very easy to avoid nanoparticles AND protect skin. Also, its not like a few years ago that you look like a vampire when using sun screen without nanoparticles.

It’s a good thing my skin isn’t made of coral.

Some of the chemicals do show up a bit in blood, but there’s no evidence it’s toxic iirc.

I am aware of this, and believe it is real. However this wasn’t even his argument.
