SUNSCREEN TO COMBAT SKIN CANCER
A group of scientists at Bath University in the UK say they have developed a sunscreen that will actively repair sunburnt skin and may even help prevent skin cancer.
Like conventional sunscreens, the lotion filters the sun's harmful rays. But an extra ingredient means it also helps to mop up the free iron released when skin burns. This reduces inflamation pain and prevents the build up of cancer causing free radicals triggered by exposure to sunlight.
