Sunburn: What to Drink and Eat to Help Your Skin Recover?

Scarlet shoulders, tight skin: sunburn is a burn — and a burn dehydrates the whole body. Let's be honest: nothing you drink 'repairs' a sunburn. But hydrating well supports recovery. Here's the real protocol.

• 🔥 Sunburn dehydrates: burned skin loses water massively (it's acute inflammation) — drinking a lot over 48h helps the body manage the repair
• 💧 The drink protocol: water first, continuously; a bottle of diluted INTI for variety (0% sugar, and the ginger-turmeric anti-inflammatory supports the terrain — no miracle claims)
• 🔴 What does NOT help: alcohol (dehydrates burned skin further) and sugary sodas (inflammation doesn't need an extra 8-11g of sugar/100ml)
• 🥗 The recovery plate: water-rich foods (watermelon, cucumber, tomato), antioxidants (berries) and protein (skin rebuilds with it) — INTI's ginger-turmeric duo complements this anti-inflammatory terrain
• 🧴 The real treatment stays local: lukewarm shower, after-sun or aloe vera gel, don't pop blisters, and TOTAL shade until the skin has recovered

Honesty first: no food or drink 'cures' a sunburn — sunscreen BEFORE remains the only real remedy. Afterwards: massive hydration (water + diluted INTI), a water-rich antioxidant plate, aloe vera locally. ⚠️ Extensive blisters, fever, chills, nausea, or sunburn on a baby = medical advice — it's a second-degree burn that needs treating.
