Yes, there is a new pill and it has just been approved by the US Food and Drug Administration. Called BioAstin, it uses ingredients from algae that are said to protect your skin against UV rays and reduce sunburn by half. However, the DoH said that it would not be approved for sale here until more extensive tests have been carried out.
