Federal health regulators on Tuesday signed off on the first new sunscreen ingredient for the U.S. market in more than 25 years, giving Americans access to a skin-protecting chemical long used in Europe and other parts of the world.
The Food and Drug Administration says the ingredient, bemotrizinol, met the agency’s standards for protecting from dangerous ultraviolet rays while causing little irritation or absorption into the skin. The ingredient is safe for adults and children 6 months and older, the agency stated in a release.
Bemotrizinol will initially be sold in the U.S. by the Dutch manufacturer DSM Nutritional Products under the brand name Parsol Shield, which is expected to launch later in the year. After an 18-month exclusivity period, the ingredient will be available for use by other manufacturers.
You’ve completely lost the point that the FDA isn’t the first governing body to approve this ingredient and their approval of it doesn’t mean I think it’s more safe.
This has been used in other countries for decades. There’s a lot of research on it out there. Stop pushing conspiracy theories for things that help reduce cancer.
Fuck all the way off on dismissing toxics as “conspiracy theories” as if our governments protect us. What fucking world do you live in?
In truth, you lost all credibility with that dumbass comment.
You’re the one demanding others do research for you while simultaneously casting doubt.
The info is out there, I linked you a reputable study, and you’re more content to spread fear than actually learn about it.
I only expressed my own distrust. I don’t give a shit what you do, I don’t trust the government, or corpo mercenary science outfits, because I wasn’t born yesterday.
And I am sharing my opinion. Why do you care so much? How dare someone not take the government at their word? GTFO I would say if one communicated that to me.
Yeah now you’re just being an asshole.
