How Sunscreens Work
Sunscreens work by reducing the UV light that gets on your skin, and it does so through the electrons in its active ingredients that absorb the UV, which convert the light energy into other less harmful forms of energy.

On top of that are more physically irritating and dangerous concerns caused by UVB rays such as sunburns (erythema), and production of melanoma, which is a form of skin cancer.

In fact, it demands 50% of our calorie intake during sleep, much of which goes into memory processing, storage, and emotional detoxification in the brain. When we start to disrupt REM sleep, we see an accumulation of emotional trauma, emotional stress, unprocessed emotional memory, coupled with a poor processing and consolidation of long term memory.
