School's out and playing outside is everyone's first choice! Always, always, always put sun screen on everyone, everywhere! The sun emits two strong ultraviolet rays called UVA and UVB rays. These harmful rays actually kill your skin cells. Your immune system is designed to get rid of these dead cells, so it increases blood flow to the burned area. This is the reason for the redness and warm sensations. Once the dead skin is removed, you are left with a darker color designed to prevent further sun damage. Though a tan is desirable to many people, the skin damage is not.
In spite of those facts, it's likely that you or your child may experience a sunburn sometime this summer. If you do, here are some alternative health remedies that can help!
Herbal Trim is a skin treatment containing aloe vera and other herbal remedies that usually stops pain immediately and nourishes the damaged skin.
Combination Potassium and some form of vitamin C (like Citrus Bioflavenoids or Vitamin C Ascorbate) are important to take internally, especially with severe burns. These are usually depleted in the body after time spent in the heat and direct sun.
Raw apple cider vinegar, directly on the burn or 2 cups mixed with 1 box of baking soda in a bath, is helpful for severe pain relief.
Sunburns are not things to play around with so remember: Always wear sunscreen and always remedy and nourish sunburns!
