Worried About Sunburn? Try the Martian Beach Look


Just Rub Yourself All Over With SPF-15 Brocolli

Brocolli is apparently an excellent sun screen.

Research suggests that broccoli can prevent the damage from ultraviolet light that often leads to skin cancer. And, as many children would surely appreciate, you do not even have to eat it.

In tests on people and hairless mice, a green smear of broccoli-sprout extract blocked the potentially cancer-causing damage inflicted by sunlight.

The product is still in early stages of development. Among other issues to be worked out is how best to remove the extract's green pigments, which do not contribute to its protective effects and would give users a temporary Martian complexion.

Scientists said the extract works not by screening out the sun's rays — which also blocks vitamin D production — but by turning on the body's natural cancer-fighting machinery.

To bad about the pigment issues.
