Sunscreen in a gummy!

Polypodium leucotomos is a tropical fern native to Central and South America, commonly used in skincare and health supplements due to its antioxidant and photoprotective properties.

The extract from this fern has been shown to help protect the skin from the harmful effects of ultraviolet (UV) radiation, reduce oxidative stress, and improve skin health overall. People in Latin America have been using it for centuries by drinking it as a tea to prevent sun damage. Now, you can take it in pill or gummy form to keep your skin safe when you're outside. 

Join me in my Weekly Recap Episode, where I share the key insights from this week's podcast episode with Dr. Noreen Galaria.

Key Takeaways:

- Polypodium leucotomos is a powerful antioxidant that can help reduce sunburn, slow down aging caused by the sun, and improve photosensitivity and melasma.

- It is not a replacement for sunscreen, but can be used as an additional tool for sun protection.

- Taking Polypodium leucotomos multiple times a day is recommended, especially during prolonged sun exposure.

- When choosing a supplement, look for third-party verification and products made in the USA.
