    We’re struggling with this kind of shit with my father in law. His friends are complete fucking conspiracy nutters who are trying to convince him that medicine is a scam. Every day is like fighting with a toddler to eat their veggies, because he has some new argument about how the body can fix itself and that his meds are making the problem worse. It’s dark, because I know that because of this, we’re going to lose him years earlier than we would have otherwise.

        If he’s american, then he’s slightly correct because American sunscreen is outdated and exaggerate their protection claims. It’s better than nothing, but if you actually want to spend your money on working products, look into sunscreen developed in EU countries, Japan, Korea, and Australia.
