The Sun’s Effects - Devil’s Eye or Life Giver? Continued....

The importance of knowing the power of the sun and how over-exposure could damage your health.

What is SPF?

Everything in the new millennium is abbreviated, including sunscreen terminology! SPF is a shortened variation of Sun Protection Factor. Sunscreens are rated or classified by the strength of their SPF which generally range from 2 to 60.

These numbers represent the product’s ability to block out the damaging ultraviolet rays. The greater the number, the greater the protection factor. So, you’ve got the numbers, but how does the product work to block?

For an example, let’s say we purchase the sunscreen product with the 30 SPF rating. This means that if it normally takes a fair-skinned person 10 minutes to turn red under the sun, if they apply the 30 SPF sunscreen they’ll be able to undermine the power of the sun 30 times longer. In short, 10 minutes multiplied by 30 equals 300 minutes. Diet Bites for Diet Motivation

A sunscreen of 15 SPF or greater is strongly recommended by dermatologists for all skin types.

SPF protection does not actually increase proportionately with a specific SPF number. A certain percentage of the ultraviolet rays are absorbed. In addition, the SPF on the product reflects the screening ability for UVB, not UVA. The FDA does not have an approved rating system for identifying UVA protection. However, a standardized test-system is being worked upon that will measure UVA protection.

Are Sunscreen & Sunblocks the Same?

Both work to protect you against the damaging rays of the sun in different ways. Sunscreen chemically absorbs the rays; sunblock physically deflects the rays.
