In Tests, Vitamin D Shrinks Breast Cancer Cells
Results Encouraging, But Don't Read Too Much Into Them, Says Dr. Richard Besser

Doctors have known that low levels of vitamin D are linked to certain kinds of cancers as well as to diabetes and asthma, but new research also shows that the vitamin can kill human cancer cells.
Most people meet their vitamin D needs through exposure to sunlight.

Most people meet their vitamin D needs through sunlight exposure.

The results fall short of an immediate cancer cure, but they are encouraging, medical professionals say.

JoEllen Welsh, a researcher with the State University of New York at Albany, has studied the effects of vitamin D for 25 years.

Part of her research involves taking human breast cancer cells and treating them with a potent form of vitamin D.

Within a few days, half the cancer cells shriveled up and died. Welsh said the vitamin has the same effect as a drug used for breast cancer treatment.

"What happens is that vitamin D enters the cells and triggers the cell death process," she told "Good Morning America." "It's similar to what we see when we treat cells with Tamoxifen," a drug used to treat breast cancer.

Tumors in Mice Disappear

The vitamin's effects were even more dramatic on breast cancer cells injected into mice.

After several weeks of treatment, the cancer tumors in the mice shrank by an average of more than 50 percent. Some tumors disappeared.

Similar results have been achieved on colon and prostate cancer tumors in mice.

People should take care not to read too much into laboratory studies, said Dr. Richard Besser, ABC News' senior health and medical editor. Positive effects in a petri dish or in rats may not necessarily mean similar results in humans, he said

It's also easier to treat cancer in mice than in people, Besser said.

Sitting in the sun all day burning is stupid, but getting daily exposure is good for your vitamin D levels and mental health.  Children are starting to get fucking rickets because their parents always slather on the sun screen.

Choice: expose myself to the celestial body giving life to almost everything on earth, or slather my body in toxic petroleum products?


Your "tan" occurs by two mechanisms.  Melanin is the pigment which gives skin a darker colour.  When exposed to sun the UV rays will oxidize existing melanin which makes it become darker.  The UV will also damage DNA.  Your cell notices this and repairs the DNA, but also makes more melanin (to protect DNA by absorbing the UV) which becomes visible after around 3 days.  That's why people with fair skin also burn easily.  They need to use short exposures to build up melanin first.

So I go out in the sun almost every day in the summer, I never have a noticeable tan after, or even the next day, it just slowly builds over the summer as my melanin levels rise in response to more sun exposure.  Once you have more melanin you can stay in the sun longer without damaging as much DNA and your skin colour starts to reach equilibrium.

What is dangerous is purposefully trying to get the tan in one day, getting kinda burnt which becomes brown.

You will also notice people who tan slowly will look much nicer in the long run because their skin will be less burnt.

What you eat also plays a role in this.  Anti-oxidant/pigment right foods can give your skin a nicer colour and also protect from the sun.

Lastly, coconut oil is great for sun bathing, it helps keep the skin from drying out and is great if you do end up getting a burn.  Aloe, let it dry and then coconut oil.


--------------------
"A human being is part of the whole, called by us 'Universe'; a part limited in time and space. He experiences himself, his thoughts and feelings as something separated from the rest -- a kind of optical delusion of his consciousness.

This delusion is a kind of prison for us, restricting us to our personal desires and affection for a few persons nearest us.

Our task must be to free ourselves from this prison by widening our circle of compassion to embrace all living creatures and the whole nature in its beauty.

Nobody is able to achieve this completely but striving for such achievement is, in itself, a part of the liberation and a foundation for inner security."

Albert Einstein

Pale people are fucking nasty.

The walking dead are among us, and they're white people.

No one behind, no one ahead.
The path the ancients cleared has closed.
And the other path, everyone's path,
easy and wide, goes nowhere.
I am alone and find my way.
