Summertime,<br />
& the Living<br />
Is Easy<br />
Relish the lazy days of summer—and feel your best while<br />
you’re at it—with the help of this issue. It’s jam-packed with<br />
summer health tips, fresh recipes, and absorbing articles for<br />
beach reading.<br />
The article “Make Your Summer Sun-Safe” on p. 30 is one of<br />
my favorites. If you’re planning a summer trip, you’ll especially<br />
appreciate author Lisa Turner’s sun protection advice. But<br />
even if you’re not going on vacation or spending a lot of time<br />
in the sun, this article is a must-read. There is so much confusion<br />
about sun exposure, skin cancer, and sunscreens. Get<br />
straightforward answers based on the latest research.<br />
Speaking of sunscreens ... have you seen the meme,<br />
Keep Calm & Use Sunscreen? I’d like to modify that—Keep<br />
Calm & Use Mineral-Based Sunscreen. According to new<br />
research, certain chemicals in conventional sunscreens<br />
enter the bloodstream within one day. Yet, many experts<br />
say it’s still ok to keep using synthetic sunscreens. Really?<br />
I’m not sure why anyone would slather endocrine-distrupting<br />
chemicals on their skin every day now knowing these<br />
toxins can enter the bloodstream—especially when there<br />
are so many fantastic natural alternatives.<br />
If all of this talk about sunscreens is making you feel<br />
tense, chill out with CBD oil. We have two great stories on<br />
this mega-popular supplement: On p. 12, Chris Mann<br />
interviewed Leah Vanderveldt, author of the new book The<br />
CBD Kitchen, for tips on incorporating CBD into recipes.<br />
(Instead of cocktails by the pool, try Vanderveldt’s CBD<br />
Cherry & Kombucha Mocktail!). And on p. 18, Vera Tweed<br />
dives into the most commonly asked questions about CBD.<br />
The latter is part of a new column called The CBD Scoop.<br />
So, stay tuned for more CBD information next month.<br />
One other “don’t-miss” article from this issue: See p. 44<br />
for Melissa Diane Smith’s profile of a cancer survivor who<br />
credits a macrobiotic diet, among other things, for helping<br />
him overcome stage 4 cancer.<br />

month’s highlights). Enjoy your summer!<br />
