Internal Sunscreens

There is a problem people with vitiligo using sunscreens. I think it is not wise thing to use Normal lotion sunscreens and blockade the benefits of Sun. If you haft to be long time periods in the sun or you get burn easily in the Sun then you maybe haft to use some kind of lotion. I don`t use sunscreens lotions at all although im using products what increases my sensitivity to sunlight like Psoralea and Khella but i dont`t burn in the sun why?(few times i have burned when i have used too strong psoralea) I USE INTERNAL SUNSCREEN I THINK THAT IS VERY IMPORTANT THING US TO KNOW

Sunburn is caused when the body cannot make enough melanin, a skin pigment , to protect the skin from the sun's ultraviolet (UV) light. Melanin is an amazingly powerful antioxidant that absorbs the ultraviolet light. The inability to make enough melanin in the skin to protect it from sunburn is down to lack of nutrients. Many nutrients are probably involved but it is known that the amino acid L-tyrosine with copper and Vitamins E & D improve the body's ability to produce melanin.

Small amounts of UV light are beneficial as it enables the body to make Vitamin D . If you use sunscreen and avoid the sun then you may be deficient in Vitamin D which is essential to prevent certain cancers. Many health conscious individuals want to avoid the chemicals in the majority of sunscreen preparations that cause additional free radical damage, disrupt hormones , and are toxic to the human body.

Because of its extraordinary antioxidant power Astaxanthin acts as a fantastic internal sunscreen to prevent your skin from burning even when exposure is excessive although that is not recommended. It can also protect your eyes from the damaging rays of the sun. It does however, take time to build up the antioxidant protection in your skin. It may take 2 - 4 weeks to build up adequate sun protection.

Antioxidants from your diet provide additional protection

Antioxidants and other substances in fresh fruit and vegetables can help protect you from sunburn too. Lutein in green leafy vegetables and lycopene from tomatoes were found to be protective in studies. Betacarotene found in orange and red vegetables and fruit can help repair skin damaged skin and prevent DNA damage that leads to skin cancers.

Onions and garlic provide selenium, an important mineral involved in the bodies own antioxidant system. Green tea contains substances that have anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant effects that prevent skin aging and skin cancers.

Other research suggests that supplementing with omega-3 fatty acids reduces skin inflammation caused by UV rays and helps protect the skin cells.

So if you usually suffer from sunburn and want to avoid damaging sunscreens a combination of the right foods in your diet and the power of Astaxanthin can provide you with excellent natural antioxidant protection from sunburn.

Use Astaxanthin 4mg to 10mg per day it is a little expensive supplement , but it has numerous health benefits
