How Sunlight Can Protect You From Breast Cancer
Do you like this story?
In his study, Esther studied women with breast cancer and women without breast cancer and reported that those women who got the least amount of sun had about a 70 percent increase in breast cancer risk.
Let me repeat that again: women who got the least amount of sun had about a 70 percent increase in breast cancer risk.
I don’t know about you, but with breast cancer on the increase in women, this research offers some very interesting findings, in my opinion.
Stimulated by direct sunlight to the skin, the body produces Vitamin D, an essential nutrient in the function of the immune system. A number of studies have shown that Vitamin D inhibits the growth of breast cancer cells and other cancer cells and tumors in the body.
Additionally, Vitamin D is also essential to the absorption of Calcium in the body which is important to all women in the fight against osteoporosis.
