In this episode, Simone welcomes skincare expert Sylvia Winans to discuss the often-overlooked impact of natural plant oils on skin health and sun protection. Sylvia shares her inspiring journey, which began during her pregnancy when she sought holistic alternatives to chemical sunscreens. Through her research, she discovered the powerful photoprotective properties of various plant-derived compounds, leading to the creation of her innovative product, Quantum Pie. 

KEY TAKEAWAYS


Exposure to blue light from devices and artificial lighting can damage the skin by causing oxidative stress, affecting collagen and elastin, which are crucial for maintaining skin structure and elasticity.


Plant-derived oils and compounds, such as carotenoids and astaxanthin, not only provide sun protection but also nourish the skin, enhance its defense mechanisms, and support cellular health, making them a holistic alternative to chemical sunscreens.


The effectiveness of natural skincare products lies in the synergy of various phytochemicals. These compounds work together to regenerate each other and provide comprehensive protection and nourishment to the skin.


Diets high in polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), commonly found in processed seed oils, can lead to chronic inflammation and deplete antioxidants in the body, increasing the risk of sunburn and skin damage.


Emphasizing the body's natural processes, the development of products like Quantum Pie aligns with the philosophy of using nature's wisdom to protect and heal the skin, rather than relying on synthetic chemicals that may disrupt the body's functions.

BEST MOMENTS

"When we are exposed to these blue light devices, the light emitted from them is damaging our skin."

"Plants are really nature's experts in sun protection. They produce thousands of chemicals to support themselves and reduce sun damage."

"The difference between chemical sunscreens is that they only have this one function to stop the UVA or UVB rays from penetrating our skin."

"When we eat a diet rich in carotenoids, our bodies concentrate carotenoids in the most sun-exposed tissues."

"Chronic inflammation in the fat cells of your skin depletes the antioxidants in our blood."
