Science SHOCK: Chlorine in swimming pools transforms sunscreen into cancer-causing toxic chemical right on your skin

Tuesday, July 11, 2017 by: Isabelle Z.   
 

(Natural News) If you think you’re doing something good by slathering sunscreen on yourself and your kids before hitting the pool, you might want to think again. A new study places sunscreen firmly on the list of products that can do more harm than good as Russian scientists discover the destructive effects of chlorine in swimming pools on sunscreen.

Researchers from Lomonosov Moscow State University have discovered that the world’s most popular active sunscreen ingredient, avobenzone, breaks down into something far more sinister in chlorinated water. Two of the chemicals it produces upon mixing with the water, phenols and acetyl benzenes, are of particular concern because of their toxicity. This reaction takes place on your wet skin when the sunscreen reacts to UV radiation and chlorinated water, and the chemicals have been linked to problems like immune system damage, infertility, and cancer.

As teens and young adults in sundrenched SoCal, gals smeared on cocoa butter, and got as dark as possible.

To this day a browned beauty in a bikini, at the beach or by the pool, turns my head.

Now they are getting patches of cancerous skin excised, but perhaps not so much as if they had used chemical sun block, is that correct?

If it is "browned" you need to turn the oven down or kill your Auto correct.

There is a conspiracy out there to get kids to stay in the basement and do nothing but play video games.
