so how do you get your vitamin D from the Sun without getting skin cancer okay I mean I’m getting a lot of feedback from some of these videos and a lot of people are just afraid of the sun because it causes cancer and wrinkles and photo aging and it’s terrible for your health so you should stay out of the sun yet on the flip side they want the vitamin D yet they don’t want to take Vitamin D supplements now you have to realize that we have evolved with exposure to the Sun for a very very long time our bodies have adapted to it our bodies have even created natural filters to prevent this radiation from the Sun specifically UV radiation and then skin protection is a pigment it’s called melanin and so melanin actually blocks the UV radiation damage from your skin so depending on the color of your skin whether you have darker skin we have more melanin or less melanin you can have lighter skin it will then relate to how much filtering of this UV you have or how much ultraviolet radiation will pass through your skin and create problems now it is true that when you expose your skin to Sun and you burn your skin okay that can increase your risk of getting skin cancer if you’re chronically exposed to ultraviolet radiation it can diminish your vitamin A Levels it can alter your DNA it can create a lot of free radical damage but what’s interesting is if you get sun without sunburn you can decrease your risk of getting cancer so normally what happens is you have this ultraviolet radiation it’s UVB okay specifically and it actually hits your skin and then when it hits your skin it interacts with cholesterol another thing that people associate being really bad because it causes heart attacks in clogging of your arteries and strokes Etc without that cholesterol you cannot make vitamin D okay you cannot make cell membranes a good portion of the brain is cholesterol all of your sex hormones okay like testosterone estrogen progesterone and even cortisol are made from cholesterol and without that you can’t make those hormones so think about how many side effects you could have from that without cholesterol you can’t make bile that helps you extract the fat soluble vitamins with digestion and without cholesterol you can’t make the cellular membranes and you definitely can’t make vitamin D so we need enough cholesterol this is why like for example statin drugs or being on a low-fat diet can inhibit your production of vitamin D that UV hits your skin converts the cholesterol into Vitamin D which then becomes activated through your kidney and your liver and then when you have the active form of Vitamin D it can produce all the wonderful effects but of course some people freak out if you even mention taking vitamin D over 2 000 High news I mean that’s probably because as the rdas are roughly like 600 IUS which are completely a joke because those rdas or vitamin D requirements were created long ago when we didn’t have all the new information about What vitamin D does to our immune system it’s basically the Bare Bones amount of vitamin D you would need to prevent osteoporosis but they didn’t take in consideration for example obesity metabolic syndrome your age etc etc and just as a side note vitamin D toxicity is extremely rare you would have to take hundreds of thousands of international units of vitamin D over months to create a vitamin D toxicity and the real big side effect is kidney stones but if you drink two and a half liters of fluid a day that’s going to protect you against the kidney stones 19 000 different genes in your body require vitamin D vitamin D is necessary for your immune system to prevent autoimmune disease depression viral infections especially the cytokine storm every part of the immune system has receptors for vitamin D and it just so happens that 69 percent of the population doesn’t have enough vitamin D now if you’re somewhat of a healthy person and you’re young okay and you don’t have metabolic syndrome you’re not overweight let’s say you’re in your bathing suit and you expose your skin to about 30 minutes of sun okay Peak Sun and you don’t live in the Northern Area you live kind of in the South um if you’re white you’ll get about 50 000 IUS of vitamin D if you’re tanned you’ll get about 20 000 I use and if you have darker skin you’ll get about 8 000 IUS but there are so many other variables that can inhibit your vitamin D absorption okay the time of the year where you live as far as the latitude of where the sun is in relationship to the equator but getting back to the purpose of this video how do you protect against the sun without the negatives of the sun okay so here are some things that you can do consume enough foods with vitamin C because the more antioxidants you have in your skin the more you’re going to protect against this damage from UV radiation not just UVB but the other types of ultraviolet radiation so vitamin C is essential okay vitamin E is really key and there are certain vitamins that you don’t want to let yourself become deficient to help you repair all the DNA damage that can occur from various things especially UV radiation in fact if you’re deficient in the following micronutrients that alone can leave you very vulnerable to getting DNA damage not only from the UV radiation but from other things as well so folate okay folate very very important you get that from things like leafy greens uh the next nutrient would be niacin okay you can get that from pretty much any food and beef it’s an animal protein it’s in vegetables it’s in nuts it’s in a lot of different places magnesium okay very very important for protection and repair against DNA damage uh you get magnesium from leafy greens it’s in the chlorophyll now also when you do fasting you can increase your own antioxidants and that will protect your skin as well and also being on a low carb diet very very important now there’s also a very good sunblock that you can use if you’re going to be out in the sun a lot it’s a do-it-yourself homemade sunblocker you use coconut oil a fourth of a cup okay olive oil a fourth of a cup sesame seed oil a fourth of a cup and zinc oxide the non-nano version two tablespoons and by the way sesame seed oil alone can block UV radiation by 30 percent coconut oil and olive oil can block it by 20 and so you make this combination with everything to mix it up and you apply it to your skin it’s so much better than the commercial virgins because of all the additional chemicals they use now one last really important Point okay UV radiation is countered by infrared radiation okay and they both come from the same thing the Sun and so when you’re getting the sun you’re also getting infrared but you’re probably going to get a better ratio of more infrared versus UV if you get sun exposure earlier in the day and later in the day versus the peak like noon where the sun is at its peak and you’re going to get the most UV radiation but a sunrise and the sunset you’re getting infrared it’s going right to your clothing it goes deep and it penetrates in your body paints and it makes melatonin which is different than your melatonin in your pineal gland it’s subcellular okay it’s in other places and it’s stimulated by infrared which is quite fascinating because you also make melatonin with Darkness okay so by being exposed to the sun you can make this melatonin which is the most powerful antioxidant that can protect you against this harmful UV so even though your risk for skin cancer goes up by 2x by getting sunburned if you get your sun exposure without the burn you decrease the risk of getting skin cancer and the next most important video you should watch would be the one on that very topic melatonin
