Natural Shield SLASHES Skin Cancer Risk
It’s like clockwork. I can practically set my watch by it.
Within moments of explaining how vital sunlight is for good health, someone starts huffing about the “DANGERS” of direct sunlight.
And it’s true… ultraviolet (UV) rays can become damaging if you’re not protected.
But that doesn’t mean you should slather yourself in risky sunscreen. And you don’t need to bury yourself in layers of heavy clothing for defense, either.
Because your body can protect you from the damaging light while letting the good stuff in.
But YOU need to fuel up properly for those defenses to be at their most effective. And science confirms a common nutrient can feed this natural shield against skin cancer.
Here’s how to ensure you’re getting enough.
The enemy isn’t sunshine. It’s disinformation.
Clever marketers have convinced us (well, MOST of us, at any rate) that dousing ourselves in sunscreen is a good idea.
But the truth is sunscreens contain toxic chemicals that are PROVEN to make their way into the bloodstream. And once inside, they wreak havoc with your hormones and can trigger cancer.
Here’s what they DON’T want you to know…
Your body is PERFECTLY capable of taking care of itself. In fact, it has built-in mechanisms that allow you to reap sunlight benefits without risking harm.
And a humble B vitamin is the key.
A form of vitamin B3 called nicotinamide protects skin cells from UV exposure.
Something incredible happened when researchers doused healthy skin cells with the vitamin 24 hours before UV exposure. The B3 PROTECTED them from DNA damage and death.
But the nicotinamide benefits don’t end there. Other research reveals the vitamin can ALSO support DNA repair in UV-exposed skin cells.
Plus, this form of B3 is linked to fewer recurrences in folks who’ve ALREADY had skin cancer.
In fact, dermatologists often prescribe a nicotinamide supplement to folks with a history of non-melanoma skin cancer for this very reason.
But nicotinamide is a water-soluble vitamin. That means your body can’t store the stuff, so you must restock the shelves constantly.
You need to eat plenty of B3-rich foods such as meat, fish, dairy, leafy greens, and yeast to do that.
And if you have a history of skin cancer chat with your doc about taking a daily 500 mg dose of nicotinamide.
