Created with Fabric.js 1.4.5 RINGS AROUND YOU! In general pharmaceuticals, artificial flours, plastics, and sunscreen are useful products in are daily life but due toan ingredient known as aromatic, they can become dangerous. Out of all these products, sunscreen is most likely to cause harsh effects. The aromatic compound found in sunscreen tends to play the biggest role in creating the sunscreen harmful. Therefore, the manufacturing of aromatic containing products must be replaced by nonbenzene contaning products, due to their negative impact on health, environment and DNA.

SYMBOLS Effects on health Effects on environment Alternatives SUNSCREEN HEALTH EFFECTS Oxybenzone Avobenzone Oxybenzone has the ability to penetrate the skin and cause disruption in the hormones, by decreasing sperm production in males and in females reduces endometriosis. It under goes crystallization this can be the reason for photoallergic responses. Avobenzene has the ability to get absorbed by the systemic circulation and this can be dangerous for children and pregnant woman. Para aminobenzoic acid Para aminobenzoic acid can cause skin reactions, such as: Acne Skin burning Dark red spots on the skin Painful, red, pus filled blisters in hair follicles EFFECTS ON ENVIRONMENT Benzene ralated Chemicals from sunscreen can destabilize the ecosystem. Chemicals of UV filters have been found in lakes, river, and even oceans around the globe. The down part is that highest concentration of UV filters have found near waste water treatment plants. UV filters can also effect the marine life, especially corals. Oxybenzone pplays a role in coral bleaching. In fact , reachers have estimated that bleaching caused by sunscreen chemicals treatens 10% of coral worldwide. ALTERNATIVES ways to avoid chemical sunscreens are: Buy physical/mineral sunscreens Purchase reef safe sunscreen Sunscreen composed of zinc oxide and titanium dioxide are safe to buy The physical sunscreen is much safer to buy because it doesn't penetrate the skin but the chemical one does. DNA damage DNA DAMAGE The environmental working group have found that 75% sunscreen contain toxic chemicals that have lead to cancer. In this fact oxybenzone and PABA are part of the toxic chemicals. Some sunscreen aromatic compounds are highly toxic (oxybenzone, PABA) and when these toxic compounds penetrate the skin, they get in the contatc of cell's DNA and cause cell mutation. This cell mutation caused by toxic reactants is known as "photogenotoxic". UV light can sneak pass sunscreen and cause long-term DNA dmage to "anti-UV " genes. Science News group have discovered that chemical sunscreen users have high chnace of developing basal cell cancer.
