Are You Getting Enough Vitamin D
5/13/2010
It's a well-document fact that sunlight is
necessary for human survival.
We've been brainwashed into thinking that any exposure to sunlight is bad. This is both unfortunate and untrue says Dr. Andrew Weil, a world-renowned leader and pioneer in the field of integrative medicine.
Vitamin D Council founder, Dr. John Cannell has been promoting sun exposure as the best source of this essential vitamin for almost a decade. He aggressively slams the cosmetics industry who has over-sold sun protection products…Why? Simply to make more money!
As a result of all this negative press about the Sun's possible harmful effects, guess what? During the last 12-18 months the sun care industry has realized millions of dollars in new growth! Coincidence…or a well planned sun scare marketing strategy?
It is Nature's Design that Humans Produce
Vitamin D from the Sun/UVB.
Dr. John Cannell reminds us when getting sunlight and fresh air used to be considered good ideas. It is entirely natural because we are supposed to get regular UV exposure to be healthy. That is nature's design. Did you know Vitamin D, sometimes called the Sunshine Vitamin, is now linked to lower the risk of most cancers, heart disease, diabetes, and many other disorders?
The reason vitamin D research is so compelling today is that the natural vitamin D blood levels necessary to achieve cancer risk reduction as indicated by hundreds of new studies are only naturally achievable through regular UV exposure.
Getting a Suntan in a Non-burning Fashion Will Make 100 Times More Vitamin D than an 8 oz Glass of Whole Milk.
All Vitamin D Scientist agree it is a fact, sun/uvb light exposure will naturally produce essential Vitamin D in the human body as it was designed to do. And your body self regulates so that you will not over produce Vitamin D. Our bodies when exposed to the Sun/UVB light will make just enough Vitamin D that is necessary for your health and well being.
With Spring here and Summer just around the corner, go outside whenever you can get both fresh air and sunshine. All you need is about 15-20 minutes of Sunshine daily preferably before 10 am or after 2 pm to produce Vitamin D naturally. Then wear or apply proper clothing or sun protection to avoid sun burn.
