Slater interview/ sunblock

Kelly is correct when he says sunblock is bad for you. It might block damaging uv rays, but it can also cause multiple cancers. Don't use it. Make your own. It,s easy. Coconut oil + bees wax + zinc oxide poweder. It's cheaper, non toxic, and just as good as the leading brands. What got me was his so called belief in supporting the things he endorses. I.E. his main sponser is Quiksilver, whose products are made mostly in China, Korea, and Vietnam. Which means that Quiksilver (and Kelly) support slave labor. The average daily pay in those countrys is $1 to $2 dollars a day. Which makes their profit margin about 500%. Not only do they cheat their labor force, they cheat the consumer with overly inflated prices. $70 for a pair of trunks is a total rip-off when you consider it only cost them less than $5 a pair. Support fair trade or American made. I don't know about the rest of you, but my work situation has been declining the past couple of years. All do to the free trade agreements that have been enacted.

 

dudeman, you are correct when you say zinc oxide is toxic. it is toxic if ingested orally, or if it is in the form of a nano particulate, which the skin will absorb. however, large particulate zinc oxide will not be absorbed by the skin, making it safe to use. your normal sunscreens ( bull frog, head hunter, vertra, etc) are bad. you need at least 30 minutes of sun exposure with out suncreen a day for your ample vitamin D. after that you need something, and hats are inaffective when the waves are big, unless you can deal with the straps and floppy visers in your face.

 

or if you want to surf at night.

 

A. No i'm not a dermatologist, but the scientific reaserch is there to prove that most sunblocks do cause cancer. not skin cancer, but internal organ cancers from the absorbtion of the chemicals through the skin. Have you heard of "nano particulates"? they are in many sunblocks. Also, I did'nt hear that eating raw organic produce causes cancer. If you have, please let me know.
B. What i'm typing on was made in this country. Seattle in fact. pugentsystems.com
C. romney, obama, ron paul are all trying to wreck our economy. it's call the "Trans Pacific Partnership".
D. do your homewrok.

 

Do your own research and educate yourself. there are valid studies that show that the chemicals in your sunblock are absorbed through your skin. In your link, they suggest the studies proving harmful effects of sunscren as "JUNK SCIENCE", and base their conclusions by FDA guidlines. don't be misled by the FDA. it's a corrupt organization run by people within the pharmacutical and chemical industry. they don't care about your health, they only care about $$$$$.

sorry but it was a typo http://www.pugetsystems.com/

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potential_health_risks_of_sunscreen

as far as finding a medical paper proving that the ingrediants in sunblock are absorbed into the skin, i don't know. i can't find it on the internet. i also can't find any medical papers on the dangers on chem trails and the effects on the human body. nor can i find medical papers on the dangers of GMOs (genetically modified organisms) in our foods. or the flouride in our tap water. but if you have not heard, none of these things are good for the human body, or the environment. i started this blog to help educate people to a safe alternative to chemical based sunscreens. if you want to take the risk and go the chemical route, that is your choice. there is however safer and just as effective alternatives. happy safe surfing.

 

sorry your wrong. I myself used to fly. Started at age 13 with the Air Force Auxillary the Civil Air Patrol.. that dose not make me or you an authority on the chem trail controversy. but the evidence is out there. Bill Gates, Monsanto, etc. There are US patents for the stuff. Do the research. and yes, i am one of those cats who does not trust what the government tells me. tell me why then the US does not require the labeling of foods containing GMOs. Many coutries are required by law to label their foods containing GMOs. some have even banned GMO food crops altogether. I don't think over 50 countries would do something like that because of some conspiracy theory.
