#261 - The Truth About Sun with Bryan Th...

KITTY BLOMFIELD
About this episode

Sunlight is awesome. We recommend women get at least 15-20 minutes of sun each day. But with so many people scared about the sun due to skin cancer, I thought it was about time we talked about this.

In our latest podcast episode, Bryan Thomas from Performance Neuro and I discuss sunlight and sun truths. Is it detrimental to our health? Why does skin cancer occur?

Happy listening I hope you find this podcast helpful and don't forget to take a screenshot of the episode and share it on Instagram stories and tag me at @kittyblomfield. Each month I choose someone who has shared and they get a tub of Saturée Premium Collagen valued at $79.
