[ALERT] Medicine Cabinet Staple Causing Liver and Kidney Failure!?

You already know that the mainstream doesn’t have your best interests at heart.
From their unhealthy suggestions to their pushing of dangerous pills, you know by now all they worry about is their bottom line.
But when I tell you about their latest trick, you’ll be stunned.
They’ve been packaging a common household item as “safe” for DECADES… when it could actually kill you.
It’s in every medicine cabinet… and you’re never going to believe what it is.
I’m talking about sunscreen.
A new study shows that something you reach for every summer could give you kidney or liver failure.
You see, there are six main active ingredients found in sunscreen:
- Avobenzone
- Oxybenzone
- Octocrylene
- Homosalate
- Octisalate
- Octinoxate
And the American Academy of Dermatology AND the FDA—believe it or not—decided to test each of these ingredients to see what they do.
When the researchers looked at the results, they found that the chemicals are absorbed into your bloodstream at a disturbing amount.
You see, the FDA sets a safety limit of 0.5 nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL) for these types of chemicals in your blood.
But just ONE of those chemicals in the sunscreen, oxybenzone, had a blood measurement of 180.1 ng/mL…
360 times above the FDA’s required threshold!
But it gets worse… the ingredients stayed in their bloodstreams for seven days!
Worse, TWO of the chemicals stuck around in the blood of volunteers for 21 days.
And another study shows just what kind of damage this leads to…
Avobenzone, one of the ingredients researched above, could turn toxic when exposed to chlorine… the main ingredient in the pool you’re probably hanging out in when you WEAR sunscreen!
After this, the LAST thing you want to do is probably slather up in a chemical-filled lotion and go outside.
But remember: the sun is good for you, and you need it to be healthy.
The key is to look for a sunscreen that has as few of these harmful ingredients as possible. The Environmental Working Group has a great resource where you can check click on your sunscreen brand and see how dangerous it is.
