Common Health Advice Drives 300,000 EARLY Deaths A Year
Of all the harmful ideas conventional medicine pushes (and, unfortunately, there are MANY to choose from), the advice to avoid THIS is one of the MOST ill-advised, dangerous, and downright deadly.
The mainstream demonizes it and yet you LITERALLY can’t live without it.
Avoiding it dampens your spirits almost as much as it does your overall health.
And now, new research has uncovered something even MORE shocking. Not getting enough could be behind HUNDREDS OF THOUSANDS of deaths every single year.
I’m talking about sunlight… or more specifically the recommendation to avoid it.
The truth is, there’s nothing worse for you than spending too much time INDOORS. Because no matter how much the mainstream vilifies sunlight we REQUIRE it to not only live well but to live AT ALL.
Oh, the sun CAN kill you, alright. But it’s not from too MUCH of it—it’s from too little.
One study published a few years ago found that not getting enough sunlight could be responsible for more than 300,000 premature deaths YEARLY.
That’s because lack of sunlight increases your risk of cancer, heart disease, diabetes, and cognitive issues—the biggest killers.
In fact, research has found that avoiding sunlight is as likely to KILL you as smoking!
On the flip side, studies show that people who live to be 100 or more (centenarians) tend to spend more time outdoors. In fact, many centenarians share one common outdoor hobby.
What it is? Gardening!
So what’s the big deal about sunlight? It’s like plugging your body into a steady supply of vitamin D.
Low vitamin D levels increase your risk of most chronic illnesses, from COVID-19 to cancer.
To take the guesswork out of how much time you need to spend each day to get your daily dose of vitamin D, download the D Minder app for your phone.
It will tell you all you need to know to obtain optimal levels based on where you live.
Then it’s up to you to head out into the sunlight and get your fill.
P.S. Even if you’re loading up on all the D you think you could possibly need—whether it’s from the sun, diet, or supplements—you may STILL not get enough. Because THIS could rob you of your D. CLICK HERE for all the details.
