Wearing glasses blocks harmful UV light, which we avoid indoors and in cars. UV light from the sun activates vitamin D, lowers blood pressure, benefits the heart, arteries, and cholesterol, aids in weight loss, helps with skin conditions and diseases, and boosts melatonin for better sleep. The sun is demonized to support industries selling supplements and other products.

Choose mineral sunscreens with non-nano zinc oxide as the only active ingredient. Zinc oxide is a physical UV blocker that reflects UVA and UVB rays, unlike chemical filters that absorb them. It is photostable, non-irritating, and considered one of the safest sunscreen actives. The sunscreen must be labeled as non-nano, ensuring the particles stay on the skin's surface. Studies show that nano zinc oxide crosses the skin barrier.

Skin cancers are the most commonly diagnosed cancer in the US, and the public is constantly told to avoid the sun to prevent them. However, while relatively benign skin cancers are caused by sun exposure, the ones responsible for most skin cancer deaths are due to a lack of sunlight. Sunlight is arguably the most important nutrient for the human body, as avoiding it doubles one's rate of dying and significantly increases their risk of cancer. A strong case can be made that the dermatology profession rebranded themselves to skin cancer fighters, allowing them to become one of the highest paying medical specialties. Despite billions spent each year, there has been no substantial change in skin cancer deaths. Sunlight is critical for mental health, and women with higher solar UVB exposure had half the incidence of breast cancer. Men with higher residential solar exposure had half the incidence of fatal prostate cancer. A study found sun avoidant women were 60% more likely to die. Nonsmokers who avoided the sun had the same risk of dying as smokers who got sunlight.

Dermatology's war against the sun may be disastrous, as benign skin cancers are caused by sun exposure, while the deadliest skin cancers are linked to lack of sunlight. Sunlight is arguably the most important nutrient, and avoiding it doubles one's rate of dying and increases cancer risk. The dermatology profession rebranded itself as skin cancer fighters, becoming a high-paying specialty, yet skin cancer deaths haven't substantially changed. Sunlight is critical for mental health; nurses lacking sun exposure had worse mental health. Higher solar UVB exposure was linked to half the incidence of breast cancer in women and fatal prostate cancer in men. A study found sun avoidant women were 60% more likely to die. The largest benefit of sun exposure was seen in smokers. The American Academy of Dermatology says skin cancer is the most common cancer in the US, but most diagnosed skin cancers are benign. They encourage staying out of tanning beds and using sunscreen. Basal cell carcinoma, linked to sun exposure, rarely metastasizes and has a near-zero fatality rate.

The speaker discusses chemical exposure and endocrine disruption, focusing on atrazine and common consumer products. Atrazine is described as a herbicide and the second most used herbicide in North America, after glyphosate. The speaker notes atrazine is illegal in Europe and claims that in Europe it’s not allowed at all. They state that “they’ll call it male feminization” when animals are exposed to atrazine, giving an example: a frog exposed to two hundred nanograms per deciliter of atrazine becomes female, turning a male frog female. The implication is that such exposures reflect effects seen in many Americans. Beyond atrazine, the speaker mentions plastic water bottles and the presence of fragrance and parabens that rub onto the skin, leading to skin absorption of these chemicals. The discussion then shifts to sunscreen chemicals, specifically oxybenzone, described as by far the most widely used chemical in sunscreen and an estrogen endocrine disruptor that acts like estrogen in the body. A study is cited: after publishing a book, a study on oxybenzone and one application of sunscreen found that seven days later, oxybenzone levels in people’s blood were above government safety limits. This observation is presented as applying to an adult who used oxybenzone once, with some people applying sunscreen five days a week to children or more, contributing to multiple daily applications. The speaker ties this to personal care products that claim to keep the face protected from the sun, implying frequent use leads to higher exposure. Key points emphasized include the prevalence of atrazine use in North America, its alleged legal status in Europe, the concept of “male feminization” in animals due to atrazine exposure, and the broader concern about everyday products—plastic bottles, fragrances, parabens, and sunscreen (notably oxybenzone)—as sources of estrogenic or endocrine-disrupting chemicals, with a cited study showing one application of sunscreen resulting in blood levels exceeding safety limits after seven days. The overall narrative links environmental chemical exposure to potential reproductive and hormonal effects, highlighting concerns about consumer products and regulations across regions.

Chemical filters in sunscreen, like oxybenzone, avobenzone, and octinoxate, have raised concerns due to potential toxic effects. Studies suggest oxybenzone, an endocrine disruptor, can interfere with hormone systems, potentially leading to reproductive issues, hormone imbalances, and cancer. The EU Scientific Committee for Consumer Safety has outlined health issues linked to these UV filters. These chemicals may not completely wash off, absorbing into the bloodstream and accumulating over time. Evidence suggests widespread exposure, with 97% of people having oxybenzone in their urine. Given the recommendation for daily, liberal, and frequent sunscreen application, even for children as young as six months, there are concerns about toxicant exposure, especially since children are particularly sensitive to toxic injury. It's important to make informed choices to protect our health.

If any doctor ever tells you to stay out of the sun, you should fire that doctor immediately. 1,200 scientific research papers prove that the sun is crucial for our health, that you should never use sun protection products if you want to be healthy, And that you should go to the sun between eleven and one at the highest noon. Skin cancer is not an issue. There's only one important skin cancer. That's melanoma. And melanoma is protected thanks to the sun. The sun does not create melanoma, the sun protects us from melanoma according to science. That immediately should tell you that doctors have been lying to you. Because according to their logic, when they tell you to stay out of the sun because of melanoma, you should have melanomas on the face, shouldn't you?

Humans ask how long they can be in the sun because they've been brainwashed to fear it, unlike animals. The sun provides UVB, which has two main functions: manufacturing vitamin D, only one of thousands of photoproducts, and triggering warning signs when it's time to get out of the sun. The feeling of warmth indicates it's time for shade. Sunscreen prevents UVB from doing its job, causing people to stay in the sun too long and be exposed to damaging parts of the solar spectrum. Listening to your skin and avoiding sunscreen allows nature to guide sun exposure.

Some believe that sunlight can cause skin cancer, but there is no proof to support this claim. In fact, lack of sunshine can actually lead to skin cancer. A recent study found that it is not UVB rays from the sun that cause cancer, but rather UVA rays. Many sunscreens only block UVB rays, which can prevent sunburn but still allow UVA penetration. Sunscreens that block both UVA and UVB rays may seem safer, but they can lead to vitamin D deficiency, which increases the risk of cancer. It is important to avoid sunburn, but gradually increasing sun exposure can help develop a natural protection called tanning. Interestingly, countries with high UV radiation have lower rates of skin cancer compared to countries with less sun exposure. Sunscreens can also be harmful as they contain carcinogenic chemicals that can be absorbed into the bloodstream and potentially lead to liver damage and skin cancer. Additionally, washing off sunscreen with soap can remove any vitamin D that may have been produced on the skin. It is advised to avoid using soap immediately after sun exposure to allow the absorption of vitamin D.

Most skin cancers are caused by wearing sunglasses. People in London and Prague wear sunglasses even when there's no sun, which proves marketing is legalized lying. Women shouldn't use makeup with sunblock. Sunburn isn't as bad as dermatologists claim; it means you're not building a good solar callus. Trees don't wear clothes or sunscreen. Humans are the only animals that believe blocking the sun is smart. You should never block the sun. The key protection is upregulating melanin production in your skin and eyes. To do this, stop wearing sunglasses.

According to the National Cancer Institute, melanoma has increased over 200% since sunscreen was introduced in 1940. Spray sunscreens like Banana Boat contain isobutanes, fragrances, and benzoates derived from fossil fuels. These chemicals disrupt the endocrine system, prevent proper sun absorption, and fry the skin. Isobutane, also found in lighters, is absorbed through the skin, the body's largest organ. Many sunscreen brands use similar toxic ingredients, which are harmful despite their convenience.

Vitamin D is described as a "God-given miracle" essential to our natural design. While dermatologists often warn against sun exposure due to skin cancer risks, the speaker claims that more people die from lack of sun exposure and related cancers. The speaker asserts that adequate vitamin D levels can reduce all cancers by 50%. While supplements can raise vitamin D levels, the ideal method is sun exposure with minimal clothing, allowing the body to convert a cholesterol precursor into vitamin D. This process affects 10% of our genomics, optimizing our genes. UVA radiation is identified as the more dangerous type, while UVB radiation enables vitamin D production. Sunscreens filter UVB, hindering vitamin D synthesis, while allowing UVA to pass through, potentially increasing skin cancer risk. Studies allegedly show that sunscreen use increases the risk of skin cancer.

Speaker 0 argues that it was not until the 1960s, with the SPF push, that people were told not to go out in the sun. The claim is that Big Pharma created SPF and told people to avoid sun exposure, promoting petroleum-based sunscreens with many chemicals perceived as linked to illnesses the sunscreen is meant to prevent. The speaker asserts that, once you look at lawsuits, there are many cases claiming sunscreen causes skin cancer because of the chemicals baked into the skin for hours. The speaker describes observing people at pools and beaches who spray sunscreen all over their bodies and then questions why they experience acne, hormonal issues, low energy, fatigue, and infertility, suggesting that these problems stem from absorbing chemicals through the skin, noting that the skin is the largest organ. The claim is made that sunscreen makes no sense and that the sun heals, while pointing to the government’s ongoing efforts to block sunlight. The speaker asks why the government spends so much time blocking the sun and offers a rationale: if there were lots of sunshine, people would have revolutions. According to the speaker, cold weather keeps people indoors, watching Netflix and cuddling up, reducing the likelihood of revolt, whereas abundant sunshine would incite revolts, which is presented as the reason behind extensive sun-blocking efforts. Throughout, the speaker ties sunscreen use to broader social and political manipulation, presenting a narrative where the sun’s healing properties are real, sunscreen chemicals are harmful, and public policy is driven by a desire to suppress dissent. The overarching theme is that the sun is beneficial and that the promotion of sunscreen by Big Pharma in the 1960s represents a deliberate attempt to control people and prevent revolutions.

The primary preventable factor contributing to skin aging is sun damage, accounting for 90% of the issue. Daily sunscreen application is essential, ideally SPF 30 or higher, particularly on areas prone to aging like hands, neck, and chest. Aging results from intrinsic factors and the accumulation of senescent cells, or "zombie cells," which can be targeted through autophagy and specific peptides. One Skin has developed a peptide, OS1, that reduces senescent cells by nearly 50%, allowing healthier skin cells to replicate and produce collagen. Clinical studies show that using this peptide can reduce skin age by 3.3 years over a year. Mineral sunscreens, like those containing zinc oxide, are recommended for safety and effectiveness. A balanced diet rich in antioxidants and low in sugar supports skin health. Hydration is crucial, both through water intake and topical application of hyaluronic acid. The conversation also touches on the importance of a minimalist skincare routine, the potential of peptides in skin rejuvenation, and the need for ongoing research in aging and longevity. One Skin aims to create effective products that enhance skin health and overall well-being.

Skin Cancer Surgeon: "Shocking Habits Causing Skin Cancer & Decreased Lifespan" | Teo Soleymani

Guests: Teo Soleymani

reSee.it Podcast Summary

The discussion begins with the role of the sun in skin health, contrasting traditional dermatological views that categorize sun exposure as harmful (F) with a more nuanced perspective that ranks it as a B. The guest, Teo Soleymani, argues that there is no evidence that sun avoidance reduces skin cancer deaths, emphasizing that many lethal skin cancers arise in sun-protected areas. He highlights that genetic factors play a significant role in skin cancer risk, and strict sun protection may not be as effective as previously thought. Soleymani discusses the three most common skin cancers: basal cell carcinoma, squamous cell carcinoma, and melanoma, noting that many patients with severe outcomes often do not have sun-related tumors. He mentions a study indicating that sunscreen use does not significantly reduce basal cell carcinoma incidence. While he acknowledges that excessive sun exposure can increase skin cancer risk, he advocates for a balanced approach to sun exposure, suggesting that moderate sun exposure is beneficial for vitamin D levels and overall health. Soleymani ranks traditional sunscreen as a C, citing issues with formulation and application. He prefers physical barriers like clothing and shade for sun protection, ranking them as an A. He also discusses the importance of antioxidants, ranking them as an S, particularly vitamin C and astaxanthin, for their protective effects on the skin. The conversation touches on the impact of diet, particularly the avoidance of seed oils, which Soleymani ranks as an F due to their inflammatory properties. He emphasizes the connection between diet, gut health, and skin conditions, advocating for a holistic approach to skin health that includes regular screenings and awareness of family history regarding skin cancer. Finally, Soleymani discusses various skin treatments, including micro-needling and Fraxel laser treatments, which he ranks highly for their effectiveness in improving skin appearance and reducing cancer risk. He concludes by stressing the importance of individualized care and the need for patients to advocate for their health.
