There are more than 1 million cancer diagnosed each year in the United States. With more information about the seriousness of the sun exposure and the potential for skin cancer purchase of Sun protection products heaven is very fast (no pun intended). However, a recent report by a consumer advocacy group claims that four out of five either inadequate Sun offer brand suntan lotions or contain chemicals that may be unsafe.
In a report published Tuesday they offer environmental working group (EWG) calls for the FDA to promised changes in sunscreen, manufacturers, more detailed information on the amount to label which would require Sun protection of their products. The Group calls that manufacturer to test and label your products to protect against UV radiation A (UVA), that does not cause that sunburn but damaged collagen and can cause that wrinkles and sun spots may be required.Research suggests that UVA a cause of skin cancer computer.This labeling upgrade was proposed by the FDA in August last year, but the changes have not completed.
The current sun protection factor (SPF) labeling system which implements three decades ago measures only protection from UVB rays-ultraviolet rays that cause sunburn.
"You can buy a high SPF - product and have still no assurance you against UVA and UVB are protected according to the study of radiation."
The EEC analysis suggested that nearly half of products contain ingredients that are known in strong sunlight inactive.
"" Like catchy, but the 17 active 'ingredients', which has approved FDA for use as sunscreens in the United States at least four clear when you are exposed to sunlight break "the EEC report fixed.""You lose to absorb the Sun's harmful rays their ability and stop working effectively in less than 30 minutes to several hours."
Products, the Sun stable and UVA filters contain ingredients zinc oxide and titanium dioxide was too high in the analysis group.
In their newly released EEC study, researchers analyzed more than 900 brand name sunscreen, EEC researchers concluded that 7% of the products with SPF ratings of 30 or later no protection against UVA Strahlen.Nur 15% of the sunscreen met sun protection group criteria for the safety and efficacy through broad spectrum (protection against UVA and UVB radiation known) stable in sunlight and the poorest performers tend to contain only active substances by the EEC as safely best-selling eingestuft.Die sunscreen brands with none of the market leader of coppertone's sunscreen is superior to both safe and effective by the EEC be.
Only a 103 products from the second largest seller, banana boat and the third largest seller, Neutrogena, were recommended by the EEC.

The report criticized also which EEC analysts called "over the top" marketing information they claim were allowed under the proposed FDA rules.
Two speakers for sunscreen industry means the EEC claims unfounded and incorrect.
Personal care products Council (PCPC) General Council Farah Ahmed gets 7% the high SPF sunscreens claiming no protection against UVA rays "very inaccurate."
Ahmed told "it's very clear you a very low level of understanding of how sunscreen to work and the way have you are regulated by the FDA and tested by the industry," WebMD.
Personal care products Council chief scientist John Bailey, PhD, says both safe and effective and strong regulated by the FDA are sunscreens.
Bailey determined that the Agency has the authority to bring action against all manufacturers makes unsubstantiated claims about a sunscreen.
Bailey is also strongly disagreed with the proposal in the EEC report the FDA to slowly change label on his promised sunscreen is moving.
"He says"The idea that the FDA is somehow in cahoots with the industry and we have been fighting to delay the process is not accurate,".""The Agency has thousands of comments (on the label change) receive and are these comments in the review process."
Bailey and Ahmed worried that the EEC report to stop might cause people with sunscreen.
"I hate would be to believe that parents out there not with sunscreen on your children because of the one it report like this based on real science," says Ahmed.
In a statement Monday, American Academy of Dermatology said President William Hanke, MD, people should choose a "broad spectrum" sunscreen as part of a General Sun protection therapy.
"" The FDA is UVA reporting in sunscreens and considering requirements sunscreen, currently the identification of the modifications to help protect the public informed choices about itself from the danger of the Sun,"said Hanke."The American Academy of Dermatology currently expects the FDA of the final decision.
