“If I were in his shoes, I might consider taking Heliocare. I'm not recommending that in general, always talk to your healthcare provider about any dietary supplement, but for me personally I think I would take it here because it's a dietary supplement, it has a fern block in it, it comes from Polypodium, and it does have evidence that it can reduce the burden of damage in the skin from sun exposure. It's not a sunscreen pill though, it's not a replacement for sunscreen or meant to be an alternative to sunscreen, but it can be very helpful for people who have photosensitive skin conditions. [...] It tends to be pretty well tolerated. [...] I'm not in any way sponsored or affiliated with Heliocare, but I would consider it in situations like endurance sports where you're outside for a long time and dressing more scantily.”
