Concerns about Chemical UV-absorbers...

Recent medical research has raised some serious concerns about the chemical UV-

absorbers and titanium dioxide that are currently used in sunscreens...


14/23

Medical Research on Chemical UV-absorbers

Octyl-methoxycinnamate (used in 80-90% of sunscreens) produces

free radicals (singlet molecular oxygen) known to be toxic to cells

Chem Res Toxicol 1996 Apr-May; 9(3):605-9

- detectable in blood and urine after application to skin

J Eur Acad Dermatol Venereol, 2008 Apr; 22(4):456-61

- when tested on mice cells, approx. half died, using a lower

concentration than in most sunscreensNew Scientist, vol 168 issue 2259, 2000, October 7; 5,13

Radiation Protection Dosimetry (vol 9; 283)

- showed estrogenic effects in lab tests making cancer cells grow

more rapidly and triggered developmental abnormalities

New Scientist, vol 170 issue 2287, 2001 Apr 21; 5


15/23

Octyl-methoxycinnamate products containing this chemical

were recommended to be removed from shelves by the Danish

EPA in April, 2001 (later limited to 4-MBC)Article Gender-bending chemicals in sun lotions for children

- binds to DNA in lab tests

Benzophenone-3 / Oxybenzone is rapidly oxidised in the

presence of light and inactivates important antioxidant systems in

the skin (the skins natural protection system)J Invest Dermatol, 1996 Mar 106(3):583-6

- can be measured in urine after topical application in sunscreen(recommended not to be applied to large surface areas for extrended and repeated periods of time)

The Lancet, Volume 350, Number 9081, 20 September 1997

- one of the most powerful free radical generators known to

man The free radicals then initiate chain reactions which can

increase skin damage and an increase in skin cancers

Article Do chemical sunscreens increase cancer and DNA damage? - Dr. Loren Pickart

- 76-80mg per hour absorbed of chemical through skin surface

Pharmaceutical Research, Vol. 12, No. 9, 1995

- found 96.8% of people contaminated with this chemicalUS Center for Disease Control and Prevention


17/23

Oxybenzone (benzophenone-3) recovered in urine as unchanged oxybenzone andmetabolites after topical application of commercially available SPF 15+ sunscreen

to nine human volunteers

The Lancet, Volume 350, Number 9081, 20 September 1997

There may be additional concern for young children who have less well-developed processes of elimination,and have a larger surface area per body weight than adults, with respect to systemic availability of a topically

applied dose.

acts as photosensitisers of DNA damage when exposed to

sunlight or UV- B radiation
