Sunscreens are Safe
Sunscreens Are Safe
An article in the Sun and News publication recently caught my eye. Recent negative news about sunscreens by some news outlets and non-medical writers has consumers questioning the safety and benefits of sunscreens.
“A review of all scientific studies (from 1966 to 2003) shows no evidence of a relationship between sunscreen use and increased risk of melanoma”.
