Summer should feel light, bright, and effortless — yet so many people quietly struggle with fatigue, bloating, moodiness, headaches, skin flares, and hormonal chaos this time of year.

Why?
Because summer is also the season when we unknowingly absorb the largest dose of chemicals, metals, and toxins… all while thinking we’re being “healthy.”

The worst offenders: sunscreen chemicals, chlorine by-products, glyphosate, and even mosquitoes, all interacting with your biology at once.

Let’s break down what’s really happening inside your body.

☀️ THE SUNSCREEN PROBLEM: What’s Actually Entering Your Bloodstream

Most people think sunscreen sits on the surface of the skin.
It doesn’t.

Studies confirm that common sunscreen chemicals reach concentration levels in the bloodstream far beyond what is considered safe — after just one application.

And the craziest part?
Levels increase with every reapplication.

The most concerning ingredients:

1. Oxybenzone

• A known hormone disruptor

• Mimics oestrogen and interferes with thyroid hormones

• Linked to lower testosterone

• Can alter reproductive function

• Increases skin absorption of other chemicals

• Detected in breast milk, urine, and blood

This chemical was banned in Hawaii for damaging coral reefs — but somehow still considered “safe” for human skin.

2. Octinoxate

• Endocrine-disrupting chemical

• Found to alter hormone signalling

• Persists in the body for days

• Breaks down into even more toxic by-products under UV light

• Strong allergen and skin irritant

Sun + octinoxate = new, unpredictable chemical reactions on the skin.

3. Homosalate

• Accumulates in the body faster than the body can eliminate it

• Disrupts progesterone and androgen balance

• Converts into harmful metabolites under sun exposure

4. Avobenzone

• Instable in sunlight

• Breaks down into free radicals

• Must be paired with stabilisers (more chemicals)

• Can increase oxidative stress in the skin

5. Nanoparticle Titanium Dioxide & Aluminium Compounds

Even in “mineral sunscreens,” nanoparticles can:

• generate free radicals

• penetrate broken or heated skin

• contribute to long-term inflammation

• burden the liver with metals

And because skin heats up in the sun, pores open and absorb even more.

What does this look like in the body?

• Hormone imbalances

• Skin flares

• Headaches

• Irritability

• Fatigue

• Puffy face and eyes

• New sensitivities

• Lower resilience to sunlight

Sunscreen alone can create a full detox load — but it rarely ends there.

🏊Chlorine By-Products: The Pool’s Toxic Cocktail

Chlorine mixes with sunscreen chemicals, sweat, and skin oils to create chloramines, which are far harsher than chlorine itself.

These can:

• inflame the lungs

• dry out and irritate skin

• stress the liver

• deplete antioxidants

• strip minerals

• worsen eczema

Chloramines enter your bloodstream through your skin, nose, and lungs.

Swimming + sunscreen = double toxin exposure.

🥗 Glyphosate From “Healthy” Summer Foods

Most café salads, bowls, fresh fruits, and veggies are sprayed with glyphosate — especially in summer.

Glyphosate:

• damages gut bacteria

• increases leaky gut

• interferes with hormones

• binds minerals (magnesium, selenium, manganese)

• promotes inflammation

• weakens immunity

Even eating clean in summer can become a source of chemical overload.

🦟 What Mosquito Season Reveals About Your Internal State

Mosquitoes are attracted to:

• inflammation

• toxins being expelled through the skin

• acidic blood chemistry

• hormonal stress

• stagnant lymph

Your internal terrain determines how much they love you.

Which brings us to one of your secret weapons…

🍋 Gubinge: Nature’s Internal Mosquito Repellent + Liver Cleanser

Health Heiress Gubinge (wild Kakadu Plum) is one of the most potent detoxifying fruits on earth.

Its benefits go far beyond beauty and vitamin C:

Why it naturally repels mosquitoes:

• Reduces oxidative compounds mosquitoes detect

• Supports liver detox of sunscreen chemicals

• Helps clear acidic waste from the blood

• Lowers inflammation

• Improves digestion and bile flow (cleans the internal terrain mosquitos' sense)

A cleaner, calmer internal environment = far fewer bites.

🌿 Natural Summer Sun Habits That Actually Work

Before reaching for chemical sunscreen, try supporting your skin from within:

Internal sun protection:

• Gubinge (vitamin C + antioxidants)

• Astaxanthin (algae-based UV support)

• Wild blueberries

• Omega-3 fats

• Hydrating fruits (mango, watermelon, lychee)

External protection:

• Wide-brim linen hats

• Shade seeking

• Morning or late-afternoon sun

• Non-nano zinc sunscreen when needed

• Avoiding peak UV windows

Your skin isn’t the enemy — toxic sunscreens are.
