Are you sunbathing?
Eades suggests in PPLP that sunbathing is beneficial. Don't bother with sunscreen just work up slowly for short periods of time. Is anyone doing this?
I LOVE sunbathing, but haven't done it for years. You know this is the only thing out of the book that just sends off alarm bells. It seems that everything else we do, (taking extra antioxidants, eliminating trans fats...) is designed to not only slurp up any free radicals but to prevent their introduction in the first place. Exposing your skin to Uv and then saying that the vitamins will take care of the damage seems just a bit much. Who's to say the early man really needed wrinkle free skin? What if leatherly looking men and woman showed their capability to survive better than others and it was highly prized? As for being vit D deficient what other sources are there?
Anyone else thinking about this as Spring is near!
