Talk about health

What do you do when the sun shines? Tear off as many of your clothes as you can to reveal as much flesh as is legal and present your pale body to the sun? Or dash indoors and get the air conditioning or fans working to cool you down?

It always seems that changes in weather in the UK are a surprise. Transport services are disrupted by flakes of snow, autumn leaves, heavy rain and hot sunshine. Now, it's summer and a few days of uninterrupted sun take up major chunks of news reporting.

Many people end up red, in pain and burned. This is despite many campaigns aimed at limiting sunburn and skin cancer. The lure of a tan seems to overcome all inhibitions and health concerns.

We all need at least some sunshine on our skin so we can make vitamin D. Despite what the mainstream medicine says about exposure to sun, getting adequate amounts (about 20 minutes) of natural sunlight every day is essential to your health.

Sunlight, as I've said, causes your body to make vitamin D... This incredible natural healer boosts immunity, strengthens bones, rejuvenates the flesh and body tissues, and increases your resistance to cancers - even SKIN cancer .

And unlike all other vitamins, which can be effectively supplemented, vitamin D requires sunlight for optimum bodily levels.

So, with this in mind, by all means, give yourself a treat and relax in the sun for about 20 minutes without sunscreen. But then, get on some protection in the way of clothes, hat, shade or sunscreens. Don't get burned what ever you do.

A little sun every day will be the best for your health. Too much and you could be in trouble later on. And none at all won't help either.

Make the most of summer, boost your vitamin D and help your general health while you're at it.

Now, where's my sun hat?
