This article has the tone we see here: how could they get it so wrong? The author even asks that and gives margarine as an example. When I read the question, my example wasn low fat.

I follow these sun guidelines. I'm a lifeguard and I used to run outside, all weather, and when I was running all the time I finally just used coconut oil for sun protection. In the summer I work lifeguarding in an environment where 90% of the kids I work with are descendants from sub-Saharan African ancestors and it drives me nuts that we are supposed to promote sunscreen. I never use it unless I absolutely have to. I only use zinc oxide. Not sure if that's safe.
