The sun will cure cancer and tuberculosis
The sun is synonymous with summer. Although this year it does not pamper us often, we should always be aware of its beneficial and harmful properties, in any weather. At any time of the year, it is the sun's rays that help us protect ourselves from various diseases, overcome stress, improve metabolism, strengthen bones and teeth, and generally enable us and our children to feel healthy and happy.
The secret of the sun is that under the influence of its rays, an element contained in our skin - ergosterol - is converted into vitamin D, which is necessary for the normal functioning of the body. Vitamin D deficiency leads to rickets in children, bone diseases in adults, breast and ovarian tumors in women and prostate cancer in men.
A beautiful and healthy tan (without burns and other big and small troubles) is just one of the many gifts of the generous summer sun.
The sun protects against asthma and tuberculosis. Thanks to vitamin D, the sun's rays neutralize cold and dampness - the culprits of respiratory tract diseases. After all, people get 90% of this vitamin from exposure to the sun. This is especially important for a growing organism, so you cannot completely deprive your child of contact with the sun's rays.
The sun is salvation from breast cancer. Exposure to the sun during “dangerous” hours provokes cancer, but sunbathing during safe hours helps convert vitamin D into a hormone that protects against cancer. It is estimated that 3 hours of safe sun exposure every day reduces the risk of breast cancer by 29%. For women over 60 years old – 50%.
As can be seen from the above facts, judicious use of sunlight can actually help in the prevention and treatment of some serious diseases, including cancer and tuberculosis. However, relying only on the sun in the fight against these diseases would be reckless - an integrated approach is needed with the involvement of modern medicine. However, the sun remains an important source of health when used wisely and carefully.
