*15 FACTS ABOUT VITAMIN D*
Vitamin D prevents Osteoporosis,
Depression,
Prostate cancer,
Breast cancer
and even effects -
Dabetes & Obesity..
Vitamin D is perhaps the single most *underrated nutrient* in the world of nutrition.
That's probably because it's free....
Your body makes it when sunlight touches your skin !!
Drug companies can't sell you sunlight, so there's no promotion of its health benefits..
The truth is, most people don't know the real story on
*vitamin D and health.*
So here's an overview taken from an interview between Mike Adams and *Dr.Michael Holick*.
◆ 1. Vitamin D is *produced by your skin* in response to exposure to ultraviolet radiation *from natural sunlight*.
◆ 2. The healing rays of natural sunlight (that generate vitamin D in your skin) *cannot pe*****te glass*.
So you don't generate vitamin D when sitting in your car or home.
◆ 3. It is nearly impossible to get adequate amounts of vitamin D from your diet. *Sunlight exposure is the only reliable way* to generate vitamin D in your own body.
◆ 4. A person would have to drink *ten tall glasses* of vitamin D fortified milk each day just to get minimum levels of vitamin D into their diet.
◆ 5. The further you live from the equator, the longer exposure you need to the sun in order to generate vitamin D. Canada, the UK and most U.S. States are far from the equator.
◆ 6. People with dark skin pigmentation may need 20 - 30 times as much exposure to sunlight as fair-skinned people to generate the same amount of vitamin D.
That's why prostate cancer is epidemic among black men -- it's a simple, but widespread, sunlight deficiency.
◆ 7. Sufficient levels of vitamin D are *crucial for calcium absorption* in your intestines. Without sufficient vitamin D, your body cannot absorb calcium, rendering calcium supplements useless.
◆ 8. Chronic vitamin D *deficiency cannot be reversed overnight*: it takes months of vitamin D supplementation and sunlight exposure to rebuild the body's bones and nervous system.
◆ 9. Even weak *sunscreens (SPF=8) block* your body's ability to generate vitamin D by 95%. This is how sunscreen products actually cause disease -by creating a critical vitamin deficiency in the body.
◆ 10. It is impossible to generate too much vitamin D in your body from sunlight exposure: your body will self-regulate and only generate what it needs.
◆ 11. If it hurts to press firmly on your sternum(chest/breast bone), you may be suffering from chronic vitamin D deficiency right now.
◆ 12. Vitamin D is "activated" in your body by your *kidneys and liver* before it can be used.
◆ 13. Having kidney disease or liver damage can greatly impair your body's ability to activate circulating vitamin D.
◆ 14. The sunscreen industry doesn't want you to know that your body actually needs sunlight exposure because that realization would mean lower sales of sunscreen products.
◆ 15. Even though vitamin D is one of the *most powerful healing chemicals in your body*, your body makes it absolutely free. No prescription required.
