Sunlight

Most people today are Vitamin D deficient.  Taking it in pill form can have negative long term effects.  Getting your Vitamin D from the sun is the healthiest way. 

The benefits of sun exposure are:

Improves EKG

Lowers blood pressure

Lowers resting heart rate

Lowers cholesterol

Lowers blood sugar

Increases cardiac output

Increases energy, endurance & strength

Increases melatonin

Increases body’s resistance to infections

Increases oxygen carrying capacity of the blood

Increases sex hormones

Increases skin's resistance to infections

Increased tolerance to stress

Building your solar callus is an important step in using the sun for healing.  Set aside 6 weeks to work on building your solar callus by:
-  Seeing the sunrise every morning, naked (no chemicals/lotions/makeup etc) skin and eyes (no contacts or glasses).
- Using an app like Dminder to track when to go in the sun to produce vitamin D - some locations in winter you will not be able to get any vitamin d production from the sun, best to build your levels up in summer.  Your levels will stay higher eliminating your nnEMF and blue light exposures.
- Going into the sun without sunscreen during the window where DMinder shows you can produce vitamin d
- If you turn red, go in the shade or inside, then go back outside at sunset
- taking vitamin c every hour of sun exposure can help prevent burns

 

Additional ways of improving Vitamin D using light -

Using a Sperti Vitamin D light can help supplement
Taking a trip south in the winter to a latitude below 27 for a few weeks will help boost your vitamin d

Sulfation, EZ Water & Red Blood Cells: Maintaining Blood Flow

Sulfation, EZ Water & Red Blood Cells: Maintaining Blood Flow

In this presentation, I explain why sulfate is ESSENTIAL for maintaining healthy blood flow through the circulatory system. Sulfate exerts structuring effects on neighboring water molecules to produce an EZ layer, which prevents cells from clumping to the vascular lining. Cholesterol sulfate, potentially synthesized via exposure to sunlight, plays a key role in delivering sulfate to the vascular glycocalyx and also maintains a high zeta potential in the blood to prevent red blood cell aggregation. This tight-knit system depends on adequate sulfation. When sulfation is impaired, it is possible that resources will be diverted AWAY from other non-essential functions TOWARD the circulatory functions. This means that detoxification and gut health will likely suffer. In this video, I talk about the work of Dr Stephanie Seneff. Below are some key paper that I recommend reading: - "Is Endothelial Nitric Oxide Synthase a Moonlighting Protein Whose Day Job is Cholesterol Sulfate Synthesis?
