The Importance Of Physical Sun Blocks

There are three types of UV radiation (UVA, UVB & UVC).
UV radiation results in the production of oxygen free radicals in the cells which causes genetic mutations and cellular damage.
Excess UV exposure results in permanent injury.
30 to 50% of burning (UVB) rays occur 11am to 1pm
UVA has less variation with the time of day.
UV levels are increased with humidity, wind, water, sand and snow.
The depletion of the ozone layer has significantly increased UVB and UVC radiation.
