@Mauritio Thank you.
I just found this quote from the mega master newsletter
"Recently, the polyunsaturated oils have been identified as the main thing in cells that radiation interacts with, to cause cellular damage. Vitamin E, taken internally or even applied to the skin, has been found to reduce the damage produced by exposure to ultraviolet radiation, which is logical, since it interrupts the chain reactions of toxic free-radicals produced when unsaturated oils are oxidized by radiation or other injury. Aspirin has been found to have a similar effect in reducing the harmful effects which develop in the skin after sunlight overexposure. Coconut oil has been used for generations in “ suntan lotions, ” and whether it is absorbed through the skin or eaten as a food, it clearly has a protective antioxidant function. Carotene seems to work with vitamin E in the skin to reduce injury by ultraviolet radiation. Caffeine also has shown a protective action against radiation, but its mechanism of action isnʼt clearly understood." Townsend Letter for Doctors & Patients, June 1996, Page 83 – 85
Dr. Peat also said he stopped burning in the sun after supplementing vitamin D, getting lots of milk and limiting PUFA.
Good one.
