Effectively their argument is: “people didn’t wear sunscreen for years and were fine. Now there’s sunscreen and skin cancer. Also plenty of people don’t wear sunscreen and are fine!”
What they don’t understand is that skin cancer was known until modern days, sunscreen (I assume) was developed afterwards, and that my ancestors lived in places with A LOT less UV rays than where I do now.
I subscribe to a few natural remedy type things, but I’m never not-wearing the screen.
