Even scientific research backs your point completely, so why does everyone not think like we do?<BR/><BR/>A recent study showed that those who get 2000 IU's of vitamin D daily have half the risk of developing breast cancer and a third the risk of developing colon cancer of those who don't. Ten to fifteen minutes in the sun (without sunscreen) can provide that. Why don't we hear more - because it doesn't have a pharmaceutical name it took a million to create! On the other side of the equation, we know that the CDC recently ranked adverse reactions to medications as second only to motor vehicle accidents as accidental causes of death.<BR/><BR/>I know of many friends and family members who have been advised to use tamoxifen for breast cancer prevention, but none of them were advised to seek out the sun for a few minutes each day. This, despite solid medical studies showing sun exposure to have a higher preventive value with a fraction of the side effects.<BR/><BR/>Thanks!<BR/><BR/>Lynne Eldridge M.D.<BR/>Author, "Avoiding Cancer One Day At A Time"<BR/>http://www.avoidcancernow.comLynne Eldridge M.D.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05592307598309502307noreply@blogger.com
