Mr Sunshine - by Pete Farrell

Hi Paul
I have attached a blog concerning sun expose and melanoma with my personal hero Dr. Mercola. I will also paste into email. Thanks.
Pete.

Mr. Sunshine
Templeton residents who are as confused about when and how long sun expose is affecting their health might be surprised to learn that the major factor to vitamin D production and its health benefits are related to how high the sun is in the sky. According to Dr. Mercola the healthful rays are ultra violet B rays that promote vitamin D production from cholesterol in our bodies. The following ten-minute video by Dr. Mercola is helpful in explaining how vitamin D is produced and how to check for proper sun location using the United States Naval Observatory tables.

As you can see there is a good deal of time when the sun is actually unhealthy for us. You can also see that according to Dr. Mercola the idea of staying out of the sun during the noontime hours during summer might be bad advice.
According to Mercola it looks like the best time to get healthful rays from the sun are somewhat opposite of what we have been told. Mercola suggests gradually increasing sun exposure paying close attention to avoid any burning during the time when the sun is above 50% azimuth.
Mercola points out that from about mid September to mid March the sun rays in this area are not beneficial and should be avoided. Mercola also points out that even on June 21 the summer solstice. beneficial rays are only available for about six hours from roughly nine in the morning to three in the afternoon.
A direct link to the United States Naval Observation link concerning altitude and azimuth of sun or moon can be found here.
According to Dr. Mercola vitamin D may be the most important anti cancer vitamin going for us and getting it through proper sun exposure is key.
It is interesting to note that not everyone is in agreement with sun expose and its benefits. Unlike fluoride where this hazardous waste material is mixed with our drinking water without our consent sunshine can either be enjoyed when it is at proper elevation or avoided.
Please do you homework on sun exposure and fluoride exposure to optimize you own good health.

  1. Many thanks to Paul for his continued efforts to keep us informed on political and health issues. I found the United States Naval Observatory website packed with interesting information. I can't wait for the next blog concerning the health dangers of fluoridation. The more that is learned about fluoride the less comfortable I feel with it in my water supply. Hopefully everyone will take the time to read the first one hundred pages of Christopher Bryson's book The Fluoride Deception, it is the least we can do to inform ourselves of this poison amongst us so that we might make an informed vote at next years annual town meeting.
