Hi guys,

I thought you’d be interested in yet another report concerning the benefit of vitamin D, especially from actual sun exposure, which seems to be the way to go.

Extract:
UPTON, N.Y., Jan. 8 — Overall health benefits from increased sun exposure may outweigh the risk of skin cancer, researchers here said.

Skin cancer rates rise with proximity to the equator among light-skinned populations, but the opposite is true for prognosis of many other cancer types, reported Richard B. Setlow, Ph.D., of Brookhaven National Laboratory, and colleagues, online in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.

Today’s Quote:

“Most cancer patients in this country die of chemotherapy. Chemotherapy does not eliminate breast, colon, or lung cancers. This fact has been documented for over a decade, yet doctors still use chemotherapy for these tumors.” (Allen Levin, MD, UCSF, The Healing of Cancer)
