Is LACK of Sun Exposure Making You Sick?
Widespread Vitamin D Deficiency Linked To Diabetes, Osteoporosis, and Premature
Death.
Medical experts around the world are talking about a new epidemic, a health concern that may be
dramatically increasing our risk of cancer, hypertension and even diabetes - it’s a lack of Vitamin
D.
New studies show may
modern diseases respond to increased levels of vitamin D.
Vitamin D isn't even a
vitamin in a sense. It's a hormone, produced by a chemical reaction when sunlight is absorbed by human
skin.
Because of the skin cancer scares over the last few decades and our increasing use of
sunscreen, vitamin D deficiency is showing up in more of the population--even in sunny places like Australia where
this video was made.
Recommendations include daily skin exposure to morning or late afternoon sun and
supplements for those already showing signs of deficiency.
