This is a "must read book" if you want to be healthy. Why? Because it brings the balance back into the unbalanced argument that the sun is dangerous to our health and should be avoided or blocked at all costs. Perhaps for the first time, all the most important results of research in the field of health and the sun have been brought together into one document and the conclusions are startling.
Lack of sunlight can increase your chances of getting heart disease, multiple sclerosis, osteoporosis, decaying teeth, psoriasis and cancer (breast, colon, ovarian and prostate).
Sun bathing safely allows your body to generate vitamin D - crucial to a healthy immune system.
Long term exposure to artificial lighting can have potentially harmful health effects. Office workers who spend most of their year under artificial light and then have short periods of intense sunlight when they go on holiday can be at particular risk.
Use of sunscreens and lack of respect for the sun can leave you open to health problems.
Sunlight kills bacteria - even through glass.
You are more likely to recover from a heart attack in a sunlit hospital ward.
Moderate and controlled sunbathing should be part of a beneficial health regime, acting as a preventative medicine. Knowing when and how to sunbathe is the key.
This book tells you how to sunbathe safely and get maximum benefit.
