Common Questions
Why zinc oxide?
Zinc oxide is a preferred active ingredient in sunscreen over titanium dioxide and the only one we use because:
- Zinc oxide is the most effective UV absorber across the entire UVA and UVB spectrum.
- Zinc oxide is made from the critical mineral nutrient zinc whereas titanium is a metal that has no biological use in our bodies and has poorly defined long term exposure risks.
- Zinc oxide holds tight to its electrons when it absorbs UV energy and limits the creation of free radicals that do damage and increase the risk of skin cancer.
- Zinc oxide is the sole sunscreen active ingredient approved for use on children by FDA.
- The zinc oxide in our formula is non-nano, and not-micronized; there are zero zinc oxide nanoparticles in our formulas.
Why is there Vitamin D in the formula?
- This sunscreen is fortified with the USRDA recommendation of Vitamin D3 (400IU/ounce of sunscreen), a critical vitamin that normally requires UV energy to be produced in our skin.
- Since sunscreens reduce UV exposure (which is a good thing and critical in limiting cellular and DNA damage and aging processes), they can also limit Vitamin D production.
- More & more information is coming out from the medical community regarding how Vitamin D may play a significant role in the prevention of chronic health & disease issues.
