In today's episode of The Herbalist's Path, I explore natural remedies for sunburns. Discover how melanin protects our DNA but isn't foolproof against prolonged UV exposure. I discuss Good Day Sunshine, a herbal sunscreen with Calendula and St. John's Wort. While prevention is key, I also highlight powerful herbal remedies for soothing and healing sunburns.

Vulnerary herbs are perfect for healing wounds, and mucilaginous herbs like aloe vera, which offer cooling and soothing effects can work wonders and provide much needed relief to sunburned skin. Other herbs like calendula, lavender, comfrey, plantain, and marshmallow root are also noted for their remarkable healing properties. Although I stress on prevention throughout the episode, I also highlight the incredible power of herbs to heal sunburns.
