Have had some legendary, face-blistering sunburns in my life. One day a long time ago I read that vegetables contain nutrients that provide natural sun protection, this motivated me to eat a lot more of them and a lot more frequently. Whether it’s true or not, I’ve only used sunscreen a handful of times since then. I’m not saying you can lie in the scorching heat all day long and get out alive, but I haven’t burned anywhere close to the way I used to.

I think there may be some truth in this. Plants can't 'move out of the midday sun' so they need to make powerful UV protection for themselves, and it's possible that this UV protection is transferable by ingestion and absorption.
