One such device that I highly recommend is called the Litebook, which uses special LED lights that peak at the same wavelength of natural sunlight in order to give you exposure to these light frequencies from a handheld device. See the Google Video about LiteBook at http://video.google.com (search for "Litebook").
These can help treat or prevent depression and Seasonal Affective Disorder, and they may even prove to have a preventive effect against behavioral disorders such as the fictional Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder that I talk about elsewhere. |

In the last few years, we've learned that there's a reason that people feel more exuberant in the summer: natural sunlight affects a substance in our bodies called melatonin, by acting as a control mechanism for it. As the sun sets, our pineal glands (located in our brains) sense the decrease in light and begin to secrete the sleep-inducing hormone melatonin. Melatonin secretion can be magnified by increasing our exposure to sunlight during the day. |

That's a shame, because the treatments and cures for virtually all chronic diseases are actually quite simple and can be described in plain language, such as making different food choices, getting more natural sunlight, drinking more water, engaging in regular physical exercise, avoiding specific food toxins, supplementing your diet with selected nutritional supplements, and so on.

It's amazing that I am called a person who promotes quackery when I make statements such as natural sunlight is beneficial to your health. I've been called a promoter of quackery because I say eat more organically grown fruits and vegetables. I've been called a promoter of quackery by saying reduce stress, exercise, cleanse your colon, drink pure water without fluoride and chlorine ... all these things I say are promoting quackery. |

I even learned that your own body freely generates the best anti-cancer medicine in the world—vitamin D—a nutrient that's been proven to slash breast cancer risk by an astonishing 50 percent, but only if you get some exposure to natural sunlight or consume vitamin D through fish oils and nutritional supplements.
The miracle that saved my life
As I studied one book after another—first 10 books, then 50 and then hundreds—the answers to lifelong health and disease prevention began to emerge. It was all so obvious that I couldn't believe no one had taught me this information. |

Full-spectrum lightbulbs are the most common (and affordable) tool we have to mimic the benefits of natural sunlight. But some ingenious designers have taken a more direct approach, letting sunlight flow right into furniture and dark rooms through fiber-optic cables.
Sunlight-transport System The Swedish company Parans developed a system that collects sunlight in outdoor panels, transmits it through fiber-optic cables, and reemits it indoors through a well-designed overhead fixture. A combination of different types of beams gives the impression of natural light filtered by trees. |

Out of every 100 women who might get breast cancer, 50 of them can avoid breast cancer by simply getting adequate levels of vitamin D in their body, and that's available free of charge through sensible exposure to natural sunlight, which produces vitamin D. This vitamin, all by itself, reduces relative cancer risk by 50 percent, which is better than any prescription drug that has ever been invented by any drug company in the world.
Combine that with green tea, and your prevention of breast cancer gets even stronger. |

It turns out that natural sunlight is powerful prevention for cancer. People who get plenty of natural sunlight have a greatly reduced risk of being diagnosed with prostate cancer, breast cancer and many other disorders that aren't cancer-related such as osteoporosis and mental depression. By staying out of the sun or using sun block and sunscreen every time you're under the sun, you can prevent your body from preventing cancer, thereby giving yourself a much greater risk for cancer with each passing day. |

But the reality is that human beings evolved under natural sunlight, not the fluorescent lights of doctors offices, and thus it only makes sense that the body knows how to deal with natural sunlight and in fact depends on it. It takes a genuine fool to think that the human body would not somehow have adapted to the very same sun that has been present for literally millions of years of biological evolution. If the sun killed people, our ancestors would have died out long ago, and we wouldn't be having this conversation. |

There are many strategies that help reduce hunger: avoiding refined carbohydrates, getting plenty of natural sunlight on your skin, drinking large amounts of water on a regular basis, and getting plenty of fiber in your diet. But there is nothing that absolutely eliminates hunger. The bottom line is that if you are going to lose weight, you are going to experience hunger at one time or another. This is especially true if you, like me, engage in strength training. Nothing gets your appetite whipped into a fury like the leg press. |

Get sensible exposure to natural sunlight on a regular basis, which is crucial for the production of vitamin D (a powerful anti-cancer nutrient, among other benefits).
•* Make water your primary beverage. Drink water regularly, even before you feel thirsty.
*" Get better quality sleep. Did you know that sleeping with a night light greatly boosts your risk of breast cancer? Turn off all the lights, sleep in the dark, and let natural light slowly awaken you in the morning. Most people need 7-8 hours of sleep each night to be healthy. |

Adams: Let me shift gears here and ask you about the controversy side of this. Sadly, I think your book has been attacked with kind of a surprising degree of ferocity. What has happened to you since publishing this book and taking this stand on being a proponent of sun exposure?

There are some interesting issues here as far as workplace health, and what employers could do to help their employees receive some healing natural sunlight. There are also some widespread health implications in this. Imagine if people went outside in increasing numbers... think of what we could do as an entire nation in terms of preventing disease and reducing health care costs. |

The healing rays of natural sunlight (that generate vitamin D in your skin) cannot penetrate glass. So you don't generate vitamin D when sitting in your car or home.
It is nearly impossible to get adequate amounts of vitamin D from your diet. Sunlight exposure is the only reliable way to generate vitamin D in your own body.
A person would have to drink ten tall glasses of vitamin D fortified milk each day just to get minimum levels of vitamin D into their diet.
The further you live from the equator, the longer exposure you need to the sun in order to generate vitamin D. |
| Your risk of developing serious diseases like diabetes and cancer is reduced 50% - 80% through simple, sensible exposure to natural sunlight 2-3 times each week.
Infants who receive vitamin D supplementation (2000 units daily) have an 80% reduced risk of developing type 1 diabetes over the next twenty years.
Shocking Vitamin D deficiency statistics:
32% of doctors and med school students are vitamin D deficient.
40% of the U.S. population is vitamin D deficient.
42% of African American women of childbearing age are deficient in vitamin D. |

Michael Holick to get the full story on natural sunlight. You can find this book at most local bookstores or through BN.com, Amazon.com, etc. Note: This is not a paid endorsement or an affiliate link. I recommend it because of its great importance in preventing chronic disease and enhancing health without drugs or surgery. This may be the single most important book on health you ever read. If more people understood this information, we could drastically reduce the rates of chronic disease in this country and around the world. |
| There is no drug, no surgical procedure, and no high-tech procedure that comes even close to the astonishing healing power of natural sunlight.
And you can get it free of charge. That's why nobody's promoting it, of course. |

Adams: Or you could just walk outside and get natural sunlight on your skin.
Dr. Holick: Or you can use sensible sun exposure, right. I mean, we evolved in sunlight. We were bathed in sunlight, we feel better in sunlight. And sunlight provides us with a gift, which is vitamin D. |

| It's common sense that every biological system needs vitamins and minerals and even natural sunlight in order to be healthy. It's also common sense that if you start depriving these organisms of good nutrition, or feeding them calories that are nutritionally depleted, such as those found in white rice and other refined grains, then you will promote nutritional deficiencies that ultimately lead to chronic disease. It's just straight cause and effect at work. |

I exercised regularly, got plenty of natural sunlight, and drank lots of water. I engaged in heavy nutritional supplementation and remineralization (both the macro minerals like calcium and magnesium, plus trace minerals). Over time, I lost 50 pounds of body fat and have kept it off for years. My "before" pictures are so embarrassing that I still refuse to post them publicly, but believe me, I was borderline obese and diabetic.

You can reverse and eliminate all of these chronic degenerative diseases by changing what you eat, how you exercise, your exposure to environmental toxins, your stress levels and by availing yourself of natural sunlight and fresh water and air.
You'll never hear that from the federal government, and you won't hear that as a benefit program, because no one profits from it. No one profits when the U.S. population is healthy. Pharmaceutical corporations only make money when you're sick and when you stay sick.
I'm curious as to what program they'll come up with the next. |

The single most powerful cancer prevention drug in the world is Vitamin D, which you can create for free by exposing your skin to natural sunlight.
High-fructose corn syrup, the sweetener found in soft drinks, really does cause obesity and diabetes.

I've frequently talked about natural sunlight and the tremendous benefits of exposing your skin to sensible levels of ultraviolet radiation. Those benefits include the prevention of various cancers, depression, osteoporosis, diabetes and the enhanced absorption of calcium, which makes stronger bones. If you want your child to have strong bones, then he or she needs to get some sunshine and physical activity, along with decent nutrition that includes calcium and magnesium. Organized sports are a great way to expose your child to these elements so that he or she can develop strong bones. |

Obviously, it's not the same as natural sunlight, because it's a limited spectrum of light, but it is a way to produce vitamin D. It's common sense that tanning beds are actually medical devices. If you put your skin under ultraviolet radiation, whether it's a tanning bed or sunlight, you skin is going to produce vitamin D. That makes a tanning bed a rather useful medical device (as long as it is used safely).
Thus, tanning beds can actually treat -- yes, treat -- osteoporosis, depression and even various cancers. You can quote me on that. |
