The “Edmonton Sun” (Canada) reports a new eco-friendly cream may cut down on skin cancers. The cream, Reversa Antioxidant Serum Booster, which contains polyphenols from green tea extract, reportedly helps to inhibit carcinogenetic changes in skin and other organs. The cream was developed from a five-year study, sponsored by the U.S. Department of Health, to find a non-toxic method to prevent the increasing number of people developing skin cancer, according to Dr. Stephen Hsu at The Medical College of Georgia. The packaging for the cream is reportedly 100 percent recyclable and does not contain bisphenol A (BPA).
