Sunscreen Chemicals May <br />Be Unsafe, FDA Reports The Food and Drug Administration <br />has said that sunscreen <br />chemicals may be absorbed <br />into people’s bloodstreams. A study in ‘The Journal of the American <br />Medical Association’ found that only cream <br />sunscreen met the FDA's absorption level limits. The FDA states that sunscreens with active <br />ingredients that absorb into the circulatory <br />system at levels greater than 0.5 nanograms <br />per milliliter are a potential risk. Despite the findings, sunscreen remains one <br />of the top methods of preventing skin cancer <br />and is still recommended for protection. The FDA suggests <br />avoiding sunscreens <br />with aminobenzoic <br />acid and trolamine salicylate.
