#1.0 SUNSCREENS.

Let's talk about SPF factor today. Something of crucial importance before choosing a sunscreen.

The sun protection factor (SPF) is a measure of how effectively the sunscreen protects you against sun’s Ultra Violet B (UVB) rays.
In theory, if you generally burn after 20 minutes of unprotected exposure, an SPF 10 product should protect you for 10 times longer. So you should be able to enjoy the sun for just over 3 hours without burning.

SPFs range from 1 to 100.
Now, higher SPF rating doesn't necessarily mean it is more effective. For example:

SPF 15 blocks 94% of UVB rays
SPF 30 blocks 97% of UVB rays
SPF 45 blocks 98% of UVB rays
SPF 100 blocks 99% of UVB rays
P.S. There is no 100% protection.

So as you can see, SPF 100 doesn't provide twice the protection of SPF 50.

I hope this would be quite informative to many of you. Stay tuned for more. :)

I'm getting a lot of requests from my patients to share my views on how to stay protected and healthy this summer.

So, I've decided to start a small briefing on various aspects I find people are generally misinformed about. I won't be bothering you with random stuff like, have lemonade before going out.

I'd be posting whenever I get time. Stay tuned. :)
