Industry Fat Cats Peddling Poison Sunscreen for Big Profits…

Dermatologists and the sunscreen industry have banded together to scare you into wasting your money on useless – and poisonous – “sun protection” products. They call themselves the “Sun Safety Alliance.”

But far from protecting you, independent test results show many of these products actually increase your risk of cancer. And their little scheme is making millions.

The “facts” you hear about the sun and your risk of skin cancer comes directly from these corporate insiders. But don’t be fooled… They’re created, funded and directed by influential members of the cosmetic and sunscreen industries.

Their number one goal is not safeguarding your health… It’s making money.

Here are the real facts about sunscreen:

* Sunscreens effectively stop your skin from protecting itself with melanin.

* Sunscreens block nearly all of your production of cancer-protecting vitamin D.
* Many chemicals in sunscreen are proven carcinogens (cancer-causing agents).

* Estrogen mimics in sunscreens cause hormonal disruption and promote tumor growth.
