How the Noonday Sun Helps Prevent Cancer
Of the two -- mad dogs and Englishmen -- the latter got it right.
By going out in the noonday sun, the English were remarkably long-lived and cancer-free, despite their northern location and prevalence of fog and clouds.
Sunlight is a good thing, if you are exposed to a reasonable amount of it year-round without sun block or screen, in moderation, because it produces "vitamin" (actually hormone) D, and D feeds the immune system what it needs to combat three-fourths of all types of cancer, including skin cancer.
Too much of anything good, naturally, can also harm you. And so it is with sunlight.
If you burn easily, you either need to build up your daily exposure more gradually, or more importantly, you must increase the amount of nutritious organic, natural vitamin-rich food in your diet.
Healthy Food Choices
One of the healthiest choices you can make, and something you can do yourself at home easily year round, is sprouting seeds, nuts, legumes, wheat grass and grains.
Taking but a few days, watering and draining every 8 to 12 hours, sprouts -- particularly of the organic, natural variety -- can provide you with a wealth of nutritious vitamins, enzymes and minerals in your diet.
A daily salad topped with a good helping of such sprouts and you'll have the best nutrition money cannot buy in most groceries or restaurants these days.
Such salads are best eaten before other foods (with only fruits always eaten separately, to prevent fermentation and putrefaction of other foods in the gut), because the enzymes raw vegetables and sprouts contain are actually required to help digest cooked foods, since heat destroys these essential nutrients.
Natural vs. Man-Made
Add a dollop of sunlight or infrared tanning bed exposure year-round, and you'll have protection from not only cancer, but many other diseases and contagions most fear unreasonably and even superstitiously.
It is a proven fact that cancers grow more in the winter months, as does the prevalence of flu, cold and viral contagions.
The reason? Less daily sunlight exposure, and thereby less hormone D, is the primary cause.
You should beware of anyone who tries to convince you that something natural -- that's been around for centuries during which cancer was not the exploding threat it has now become -- is now mysteriously "bad" for you
Or that putting some recently invented man-made chemical concoction on your skin to "protect you" from this natural exposure -- the increasing use of which coincides with the precipitous rise in cancer and viral contagion rates -- is somehow "good for you."
Do they have anything (sales, money) to gain from trying to convince you?
If so, save yourself both the expense and the risk of developing cancer, a fatal viral contagion, or even the common cold, by refusing to listen to this siren song.
The Mad Dogs of Modern Medicine
The mad dogs of modern medicine may not know it, but there's plenty of benefit in getting some "unprotected" noonday sun exposure, just as the English have known for centuries, and many still practice (or at least exposure to infrared light, with the eyes adequately protected, of course).
If your skin is naturally darker in pigmentation, you need even more exposure than does a light-skinned Englishman.
Most of the mad dogs today are found indoors, exposed to hours of TV or computer-generated electromagnetic smog, artificial lights, and malnourishing snack "foods" galore.
Little wonder then that cancer, viruses and diseases of all sorts are on the rise, in this D-depleted breeding ground for all that ails you.
Medical science cannot provide you in a pill, lotion or shot, what simple, healthy sunshine has always provided those willing enough to go out and "risk" it.
Neither man nor his "science" can mimic or top the blessing of healthy creation a caring and beneficent Creator has given us all to enjoy!
