Episode notes
Daily Sunscreen Protects Skin
- Always wear sunscreen daily to prevent 90% of skin aging caused by UV exposure.
- Apply on face, hands, neck, and chest, especially during sun exposure outdoors.
Understanding Senescent Cells
- Senescent "zombie" cells accumulate with age and secrete inflammation that harms surrounding cells.
- Reducing these cells can promote healthier, more youthful skin from within.
Choose Mineral Sunscreens Safely
- Choose mineral-based sunscreens with zinc oxide or titanium dioxide for physical UV protection.
- Avoid chemical sunscreens as they penetrate skin and may have unknown long-term health risks.
