Considering the clinical benefits, the lack of side effects, the low cost, and the ease of implementation of this homeopathic treatment, this news is exciting for women recovering from breast surgery

I’ve recently traded in my plastic sunglasses for a paper hat for several reasons. Mainly to help regulate my circadian rhythm. While I don’t want to look at the sun, I want the sun looking at me. It seems so unnatural to me to block the sunlight. The sun tells our bodies what time is it which is so important to help us sleep better at night and sunglasses can block that mechanism. Also when the sun hits your eyes it tells your skin to make more melanin which protects you from burning. You’re being told the sun is dangerous, but you can’t convince me being indoors under fluorescent lights or outdoors lathered in chemical sunscreen is better than being outside under our God given sun.
