i scream, you scream, ...
We all scream for sunscreen...
What do you use? Maybe you should think about upgrading... Consumer Reports rated Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Dry-Touch SPF 45 as the best and the best buy as No-Ad Sunblock Lotion Maximum SPF 45. Both are highly rated for UVA and UVB. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |

I used that No Ad crap on my face and neck before a job interview. I sat there looking like a toad with blisters and bumps on my face and neck. I didn't get the job. Ocean Potion puts orange sweat marks and ring around the collar on my clothes. Bleach won't take the stains out but soaking overnight in Oxyclean does. I tried Bull Frog, but if you don't put it on fast enough, it dries really fast and you look like you have pieces of dried snot on your face. Now i use that spray on Bull Frog. I luv the stuff. It doubles as aftershave because it has alcohol in it and stings your face. They even have a version with Deet in it. |

This isn't what dermatologists stay. You should be applying sunblock 15-20 minutes before exposure. Tanning in intense sun can take place in much less than 15 minutes and no tanning is good. Where you get this stuff, I have no idea. -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |

This isn't what dermatologists stay. You should be applying sunblock 15-20 minutes before exposure. Tanning in intense sun can take place in much less than 15 minutes and no tanning is good. Where you get this stuff, I have no idea. I got it originally from a dermatologist on the Today SHow... but just in case you don't know how to Google, put benefits of 15 minutes in the sun into your search and see what happens..or read this to start: http://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/30769.php http://www.sunsmart.org.nz/skin-canc...nefits-of-sun- exposure.aspx http://www.articleclick.com/Article/...unlight/919158 Why you aren't more well read is beyond me.... To confuse the matter more, there have been some recent studies showing that sun block does prevent sunburns, but might also increase the chances of skin cancers. http://jnci.oxfordjournals.org/cgi/c...ll/91/15/1263A http://www.fitness-beauty-spa.com/sun.html#3 Then if you must use sun screens: http://www.thegreenguide.com/doc/120/sunscreen |

There is a lot of hype put about regarding the dangers of sun exposure
put about by those profiting from the cancer creation industry. Remember for each person who dies of skin cancer 30 excess deaths occur in the most common cancers breast prostate lung colon, These and 13 other cancers thrive in vitamin d depleted bodies. Applying sunscreen/sunblock prevents UVB rays from reaching the skin. Putting it on before you go out therefore totally prevents any vitamin d being made. This is why the average European woman has Vitamin d status around 50nmol/L, the level needed for maximum calcium absorption is 80nmol/L and to have 50% less breast cancer it's best to have 130nmol/L. If the advice from "Official" sources was correct we would not have the current deficiency epidemic. 9 out of 10 UK White adults are below 75nomol/l in Winter and 60% remain so the whole year. If you take the official RDA vitamin D and follow official RDA advice you will be vitamin d deficient. Similarly if you rely on your doctor to correct that deficiency you will be ill advised as they generally prescribe D2 Ergocalciferol and The Case Against Ergocalciferol as a Vitamin Supplement explains why. http://www.ajcn.org/cgi/content/full/84/4/694 http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/en...rch=1 7259988 DCs metabolize sunlight-induced vitamin D3 to 'program' T cell attraction to the epidermal chemokine CCL27. explains how when UVB rays touch your skin the first thing the newly made Vitamin D3 does is to program your "T"Cells to start fighting skin cancer. Vitamin D synthesis is a heat driven self-limiting process. This means you need an erythemal index above 3 and UVB rays. These are only present when your shadow is shorter than your height and if you live above latitude 37 during the summer. The self-limiting bit means that once the cholesterol in your skin is converted to vitamin d3 it then should further heat be applied, be further processed into suprasterols. These are not used. So to maximise your vitamin D production you need to GO INSIDE or COVER UP after 20 minutes. (you will make 1000iu every 5 minutes so 20 minutes full body (or near as possible) exposure provides the amount you use daily. If you are trying to build stores for the Winter or rectify a deficiency situation then wait an hour for your skin to cool and the vitamin d to be absorbed then try for another 15 mins. But be aware 10,000iu is about all that the body usually makes each day so is a natural maximum. So 1x 20 + 2 x 15mins exposures are around the most anyone can benefit from. |

Oh what complete bs. Do you really believe that using sunscreen prevents all UVB or UVA from getting through? Have you even read the literature? Unless you have very dark skin, typically brown/black, and if you live in areas that don't get much sun (like extreme north or south), you get plenty of sun. Do you put on sunscreen walking to the car, to the mall, to the mailbox? Feel free to die of skin cancer if that's your choice.... -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |

No greasy products. A covered wheelhouse is great to prevent skin cancer. Joe- Hide quoted text - - Show quoted text - We are med moored to the quay in the town of Avarua on the island of Rarotonga. It's a small little harbor with about six other cruising boats here. No, we don't do much fishing, it makes a mess of the decks and after the third time we forgot to pull in the line before anchoring I hid the fishing rod. Cutting fishing line off the prop is no fun! Besides, fresh fish is plentiful in every port. Not much excitement here, we are living "Island Time", slow and easy. It was a bit exhilarating getting here though. Five day passage from Bora Bora and all was well until the last 20 hours where we had 30 knot winds and 12 ft. seas. We were on a beam reach and with our rain gear on we steered from the side with our backs to the wind and the waves that washed over us. I found that it wasn't such a bad thing when the warm ocean water filled our cockpit well to warm my cold pruny feet. Mike's great, just now he's up on deck working on his computer and in fact just called me up to look at the weather forecast. It looks like we are going to see some big wind this coming weekend, 35 knots blowing straight into the harbor, ugh! I may be looking into hotel accommodations for that little bit. No, we don't have a sat phone. When we want to reach out and touch someone we use the single side band or internet. While passage making we usually check in with the Pacific Seafarers Net.
