List of diseases potentially caused by this epidemic continues to grow and grow.
Diseases like osteoporosis, osteomalacia (the adult form of rickets), some cancers, and even Alzheimer's disease.
Something you may not be aware of is that different forms of vitamin D exist, yet only one is available to your body naturally. And another interesting bit of information you might not know is that where you live in the world can determine whether or not you're getting enough vitamin D.
And the saddest truth of all is that there is absolutely no reason in the world anyone should suffer from a lack of vitamin D -- when the remedy is as simple as spending just a little time outdoors.
"Myth of the Deadly Sun".
"Stay out of the sun, you'll wrinkle like a prune and look old before your time!"
"Slather on this sunscreen or you'll get cancer."
"Cover up -- don't you know the sun can kill you?"
I'm not saying you shouldn't be careful. The sun is a very powerful source and repeated over-exposure can cause harmful and dangerous damage to your skin.
So I caution you to have healthy respect for the sun's rays -- but don't eliminate it from your life completely.
The incredible healing powers of sunshine have been known for centuries.
The healing powers of 'sun therapies:
• Maintaining a strong heart
• Retaining strong muscles and an ideal weight
• Treatment for asthma, digestive diseases, and even back pain
In school health class, we all learned that we got our vitamin D
from the sun. Somehow, being outside in the sunshine worked like magic to produce vitamin D in our bodies. We didn't know how it worked -- we just knew it did.
Building strong bones is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to all the wondrous things vitamin D can do.
