*** A note of apology from our producers: we had very poor internet connection throughout this interview and apologise for the resulting lack of flow in conversation. We strive for the highest quality in our content, however this information is too important to not share

In Episode 25 of The Road to Wisdom Podcast, Chloe and Keshia engage in a thought-provoking discussion about sunscreen, exploring its potential as both a protector and a source of harm. They are joined by Dr. Elizabeth Plourde, a Clinical Laboratory Scientist, Medical Researcher and the author of multiple books including her more recent "Sunscreens Biohazard 2: Proof of Toxicity Keeps Piling Up." Dr. Plourde challenges the conventional belief that sunscreen is a foolproof defense against skin cancers. Instead, she reveals how it can inadvertently promote them, citing the absorption of its chemicals into our bodies and their disruptive impact on our hormonal balance. The conversation extends to the environmental consequences, particularly the damage to coral reefs, which holds significance for Australians who have long followed the "slip, slop, slap" mantra. Dr. Plourde offers practical advice on safely enjoying the sun, including gradual sun exposure, the importance of a healthy diet, and the protective role of melanin.
