		Discovery Online, The Skinny On ... Sunscreen Testing ^Votes:0 Sunscreen Testing By Hannah Holmes The images of sunscreen testing are disturbing: Rabbits in bikinis? Petri dishes on a beach, micro-squeaks of agony issuing from the broiling bacteria? Pale, defenseless people with bullseyes on their backs? Yeah, it's the last. "The English," says Stephen Schwartz wistfully. He's president of a sunscreen-rating company, International Research Services. "They're classic peaches and cream -- beautiful, light skin that burns very easily." Well, the bunnies finally get a break! But then, bunnies don't need sunscreen. . Pale, furless creatures need sunscreen because the ultraviolet wavelengths of light from the sun beat through the cell walls of our skin and wreak havoc on our DNA. When we figured this out a few years back, chemists began tinkering with molec Read More Go to Site

		DocTalk: Off the Wire ^Votes:0 You've probably all heard about the genes that cause cancer and other diseases and if you haven't heard about those genes you've probably heard about the ones popularized by Levi Strauss. But now scientists in England have just found the gene that causes sunburn. As a bonus, this gene also tends to give people red hair. How does this gene work? Apparently this gene plays a key role in the body's production of pigment called melanin which is found in hair and skin. Melanin comes in a brown-black form that protects against sunburn by allowing suntanning, and a yellow-red form that may contribute to sunburn. The yellow-red form is most often found in the hair and skin of people with red hair. In a study of 75 people the scientists found that the more sunburn-prone a person's skin, the more li Read More Go to Site

		Emu Oil...naturally unique ^Votes:0 AMAZING EMU OIL Emu oil discovered by Aborigines many thousands of years ago as a skin moisturizer, antiseptic, and as an aid in the relief of sunburn, muscular aches and joint pain. The emu oil is rendered from a thick layer of fat on the back yielding 5 - 7 liters of unsaturated, non-toxic, highly penetrating oil. Research by Ratite Products Inc. show emu oil to be almost 100% triglyceride in nature which means that emu oil is almost a completely neutral lipid and as such has tremendous medical and cosmetic possibilities as a base carrier and neutral emollient. There was also a lack of phospholipids, which explains the emu oil?s high penetrating qualities since the human skin is phospholipid deficient.

		Sun Burn ^Votes:0 Sun Burn I. Definition: Sunburn is the result of not using proper skin protection while sunbathing or even from routine sun exposure. The skin becomes red, tender and swollen. You may have a stinging sensation and blistering may occur. Some people even get a low grade fever. The skin will eventually shed or peel, once the skin underneath has renewed itself. II. Side Effects: Excessive exposure to sunlight will cause irreversible skin damage. People who get sunburn have an increased risk of developing melanoma skin cancer. Each new sun burn increases the risk a little more. Melanoma skin cancer is very dangerous because it can spread quickly, affecting the internal organs and result in death. III. Treatment: One of the best sun burn treatments is Dr. Michelle Copeland Revitalizing Protect & Read More Go to Site

		Sun Exposure: Precautions and Protection, HYG-5550-07 ^Votes:0 Ohio State University Extension Fact Sheet Food, Agricultural and Biological Engineering 590 Woody Hayes Drive, Columbus, Ohio 43210 Sun Exposure: Precautions and Protection HYG-5550-07 A golden, bronze tan is often considered a status symbol. Perhaps this supports the idea that people who have time to lie in the sun long enough to develop a deep tan, or who can travel to warm climates during winter, have more money or leisure time than ?common folk.? Nevertheless, the goal of many is a deep tan early in spring or to return from vacation with that hearty, healthy glow. Whether a tan suggests status or not, a suntan is a form of skin damage and does not protect you from skin cancer. Ultraviolet rays from the sun will damage skin but can also create vision problems, allergic reactions, depre Read More Go to Site
