Researchers in Australia have discovered that exposure to natural

sunlight reduces the incidence of Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma (NHL).

 

The researchers were trying to find out if exposure to the sun

really does cause this type of cancer; instead, they found that it

actually protects people from the disease.

 

Why is this the case? Being exposed to natural sunlight results in

the creation of vitamin D in your body, and vitamin D is extremely

important in protecting you against bone loss, osteoporosis,

schizophrenia, cancer (especially of the prostate and breast), and

many other chronic diseases.

 

In fact, the vast majority of people living in modern societies

worldwide don't get enough natural sunlight on their skin.

 

They thus suffer from chronic vitamin D deficiencies and have much

higher risk of these diseases than would normally be expected.

 

What they need is sunlight. Sunlight really is the prevention, and

in many cases even the cure, for these diseases, especially if they

are still in their early stages.

 

And yet, conventional medicine advises most people to avoid the sun.

This teaches people to fear the sun, claiming that natural sunlight

is going to kill them through skin cancer.

 

As a result of that misguided advice, people avoid the sun and put

on sunscreen practically every time

they venture outside.

 

Not surprisingly, they do not get enough ultraviolet radiation, or

the vitamin D they need to prevent Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, as well

as many other chronic diseases. That's one of the many reasons why

we're seeing these skyrocketing rates of chronic diseases like

schizophrenia, prostate cancer, and breast cancer.

 

 

The cure for these diseases is freely available

 

Many of these diseases, if not the vast majority of them, are easily

preventable, and many of the prevention modalities are free of

charge. All you have to do is walk outside.

 

Your skin is a biochemical factory.

 

Your skin manufactures the cure for cancer simply by being exposed

to sunlight.

 

See, the strategies for preventing these diseases are readily

available. Your body already knows all of this. But when you go

outside and put on sunscreen, you interfere with your body's normal

system of disease prevention. Of course, this doesn't mean you

should go outside and burn yourself to a crisp.

 

If you're not used to getting lots of sun on your skin, then you

have to use some common sense. You should limit your exposure until

you build up some skin pigmentation (a tan) to help you resist the

DNA damage caused by excessive ultraviolet exposure. But most people

are doing far more damage to themselves by avoiding all exposure,

than by any overexposure.

 

 

People need some sunlight on their skin, and finally we're starting

to see some of the research come out on this. There are now a number

of proponents of this theory.

 

I've interviewed the world's foremost expert on vitamin D and

sunlight exposure -- Dr. Michael Holick, the author of

the book, " The UV Advantage. " (You can download the full interview

for free at www.TruthPublishing.com.) I strongly recommend this

book for those who really want to know how vitamin D works and what

a fascinating journey it takes through your body. You'll learn how

it is transformed by one organ and stored by another, and how the

kidney, the liver, and the skin are needed to create this crucial

nutrient for human health.

 

 

Fired for telling the truth about sunlight

For writing " The UV Advantage, " Dr. Michael Holick was ostracized

and thrown out -- fired -- from his position by a group of

dermatology medical experts. They didn't like his message, and the

reason is not surprising.

 

Much of the dermatology industry is funded by the very same

companies that profit from selling sunscreen products. So if you

tell the American people to stop using sunscreen for a few minutes a

day, the makers of

those sunscreen products don't like that message, because it costs

them money. They want to keep selling sunscreen products.

 

It's just like the pharmaceutical companies, the drug makers, who

want to keep selling products to generate profits regardless of the

health consequences to the public. They're not interested in what

happens to your health; they just want to make the money. They have

demands from shareholders and investors, and they have personal

ambitions and aims to meet sales figures and do better in their own

careers. Those goals take precedence, not your health.

 

And besides, they can always say, " Oh, the sun causes cancer. " Most

people still believe that, so few would question that kind of

statement

anyway. But now evidence that will question it is coming out. In

fact,

there's now more than enough evidence to show that sunlight is

absolutely essential for human health.

 

 

Getting back to health basics

I'm often surprised that we even have to question this. How obvious

can

this be? We evolved under the sun! It's not like the sun is brand

new.

 

It's not like the Earth created life in total darkness and then all

of a

sudden, in the last 40 years, the sun appeared and now we have skin

cancer. I mean, think about it! Use some common sense here, because

the

doctors and researchers certainly aren't.

 

Common sense says the sun has been here for the 350,000 years of

human

evolution and the millions of years of pre-human evolution that

created

the DNA blueprint you now carry in your body. The sun was here all

that

time.

 

If the sun was causing disease and killing people, do you think we

would

even be alive today? Of course not! We evolved and adapted as a

species

to live in harmony with the sun. Sunlight is present each and every

day

on the planet. And as beings, we evolved a genetic plan to exploit

that

sun to enhance our own health.

I've said this many times before, but it's worth repeating: human

beings did not evolve under fluorescent lights sitting in chairs in

cubicles. We evolved in the wild, outdoors.

 

We evolved under the sun, and our bodies learned how to use the sun

to

support our health.

 

 

Prevent prostate cancer with sunlight

As we see more research on this, I suspect we'll receive more

evidence

proving that the sun protects us from a long list of chronic

diseases.

This research in particular was about Non-Hodgkin's lymphoma (NHL),

but

I expect to see a lot more research about prostate cancer

especially.

And this is the big message that men need to hear about prostate

cancer.

No one ever tells them this stuff. Their doctors don't tell them;

the

media doesn't tell them; even the national health organizations

don't

tell people this.

 

The big message is that you can prevent prostate cancer by getting

sunlight. This is not rocket science folks! If you go out and

regularly

get sunlight on your skin -- as a child, as a teenager, and as an

adult,

you will not get prostate cancer.

 

Of course, the darker your skin, the more sunlight you need. This is

another point I've said over 100 times on this website. People with

dark

skin have a natural adaptation that blocks more ultraviolet rays. As

a

result, they need 20 to 30 times as much sun exposure to generate

the

same amount of vitamin D as a white-skinned person.

 

Once again, think about it: Where did people who have darker skin

come

from? They came from regions near the equator of the planet. What's

near

the equator of the planet? The answer is that there's more intense

sunlight there.

This high-intensity sunlight motivated a skin color adaptation in

humans. This pigmentation blocks more sunlight to avoid

overexposure,

but still allows some ultraviolet light into the skin so the

organism,

the human being, can generate vitamin D, thus preventing chronic

disease.

 

Fair- or white-skinned people lived in northern climates, where

sunlight

exposure is a fraction of that at the equator. Thus, they did not

need

the ultraviolet protection of dark skin pigmentation; they needed

lighter skin that lets in more ultraviolet light and enables them to

produce more vitamin D.

 

The exception to this is people who lived in Alaska and other

northern

climates. Despite their location, they still had dark skin. Why?

Because

they got their vitamin D from their diet, which was rich in fish oil.

 

Now, again, this is not rocket science, it doesn't take a genius to

figure this out. All you have to do is take the globe, put it in

your

hand, look at the planet, look at the equator, think about skin

color,

think about the physics of ultraviolet radiation and the seasons,

throw

in factors like the fish oil diets of the Eskimos.

 

Then, throw in factors such as how vitamin D prevents prostate

cancer,

and look at the skyrocketing rates of prostate cancer in black men

who

live in northern climates, such as the UK, Canada, and the northern

United States. The answer is so obvious that it's almost laughable

that

the modern medical community hasn't stumbled across this.

 

I find it absolutely amazing that doctors aren't taught this stuff.

I

mean, what are they learning in medical school? If they're not

learning

about how humans should experience the natural environment and

prevent

chronic disease, then what are they learning? Obviously they're not

learning anything useful, because they're not giving people

information

that would actually help them prevent chronic diseases. They're only

being taught how to mask symptoms of disease with expensive drugs.

 

This is Nutrition 101, folks. This is fundamental, basic information

about how the human body works. I just can't believe medical schools

graduate doctors who don't know this stuff. And it's worse than

that --

it's not just that they don't know it; but they'll attack and

discredit

anyone who explains this.

 

Our current system of conventional medicine is so far from nature

and is

so steeped in the mythology of junk science, that simple, basic

truths

of disease prevention don't even occur to its practitioners.

 

Now, granted, there are good doctors out there; there are people who

know this stuff. My hat is off to you, especially if you're working

to

educate your patients about this. But you are the exception, not the

rule.

 

The vast majority of the physicians, researchers, med school

teachers,

and university professors still teach people that they need to avoid

the

sun because it will kill them.

This bad information results in the untimely disease and death of

countless people around the world. People need to hear the opposite

information. They need to learn the true link between ultraviolet

radiation, the creation of vitamin D, and the prevention of chronic

disease. And until they hear that, we're going to have needless

suffering and death around the world from people who sadly believe

what

their doctor (and the sunscreen industry) keeps telling them.
