Taste note: Made without artificial masking agents, so the natural taste of the active ingredients comes through and may be slightly bitter.
A must if you enjoy the outdoors and something I recommend to all my patients.

Every week in our practice, we see the real consequences of sun exposure: from stubborn redness and premature aging to the early stages of skin cancer.
We love the sun. Our patients love the sun. But we also see what happens when skin isn't properly supported from the inside.
For years, we've recommended specific vitamins and antioxidants to help patients strengthen their skin: nicotinamide for DNA repair, polypodium to reduce UV inflammation, astaxanthin for antioxidant defense. These aren't trendy ingredients. They're backed by published clinical trials.
The problem? Our patients were juggling 10 different bottles, often in doses that didn't match the research or from brands we couldn't fully verify.
So we built Sun Powder. Clinical doses of the exact ingredients we've been recommending for years. The same forms and amounts used in the studies. Nothing proprietary, nothing hidden.
What started as a solution for our own patients is now available to anyone who wants calmer, stronger, more sun-resilient skin.
Here's what matters most:
This doesn't replace sunscreen. Keep wearing SPF. Reapply every two hours. Seek shade. Sun Powder works alongside those habits, supporting how your skin responds to UV stress and builds resilience over time.
One scoop a day. Keep wearing sunscreen. And hopefully, you never need to see us in the office for the wrong reasons.
What's in it?
In a major clinical study, people who took nicotinamide daily had 54% fewer common skin cancers after just one year. It works by helping your skin cells repair DNA damage from UV exposure and supporting your skin's natural immune defenses against the sun.

"Great product for those that are looking to get an extension on time out in the sun!"
"I bought this after hearing about it on the Huberman Lab podcast, and I'm glad I did. My skin feels more hydrated and less sensitive to the sun."
"If I plan on golfing, going to the pool, or know I will be outside all day it helps me avoid sun burns."
Common questions my patients ask me about Sun Powder.
Yes. Sun Powder doesn't block UV rays, so you can still tan or burn. I still recommend daily SPF, protective clothing, and smart sun habits. Think of it as added support, not permission to be careless in the sun.
No. Sun Powder is not a replacement for sunscreen. Sunscreen helps reduce UV exposure at the skin's surface; Sun Powder is designed to support skin health from within as a second layer of daily support.
Sun Powder does not block UV exposure like a topical sunscreen does. Vitamin D status depends on many factors, including diet, geography, skin tone, season, and time outdoors, so checking your levels with your clinician is the best path if you're concerned.
If you're pregnant, breastfeeding, trying to conceive, or managing a medical condition, I recommend checking with your healthcare provider before adding any supplement. Your needs can be very individual during that time.
Like most skin-health routines, consistency matters. Some people may feel like their skin looks calmer sooner, but visible changes in tone, dark spots, and resilience usually require daily use over several weeks.
It's best for people who are already thinking seriously about sun exposure, uneven tone, redness, skin aging, or prevention. It's especially relevant if you spend time outdoors, drive often, sit near windows, or don't realistically reapply sunscreen every two hours.
