Sunlight and Cancer

In my Alternative medicine research I have read alot of information suggesting that Sunlight can cure cancer, that sunlight gives us an amazing for of Vitamin D that our body put to the highest use it can. It is Extremely important to ALL people to get natural Sunlight, even if just a little, without any kind of glass, glasses, or sunglasses between your eyes and natural daylight.
With this it is also said that Melotonin is Anti-Cancer and that our body naturally creates melotonin from sleeping in a dark room at night, light on at night inhibit melotonin secretion.

Sunlight prevents cancer, study says

Insufficient exposure to ultraviolet radiation may be an important risk factor for cancer in western Europe and North America, according to the author of a new study that directly contradicts official advice about sunlight.The research, published this week in the journal Cancer (2002;94:1867-75), examined cancer mortality in the United States. Deaths from a range of cancers of the reproductive and digestive systems were approximately twice as high in New England as in the south west, despite a diet that varies little between regions.An examination of 506 regions found a close inverse correlation between cancer mortality and levels of ultraviolet B light. The likeliest mechanism for a protective effect of sunlight is vitamin D, which is synthesised by the body in the presence of ultraviolet B.
The study’s author, Dr William Grant, says northern parts of the United States may be dark enough in winter that vitamin D synthesis shuts down completely. While the study focused on white Americans, the same geographical trend affects black Americans, whose overall cancer rates are significantly higher. Darker skinned people require more sunlight to synthesise vitamin D."There are 13 malignancies that show this inverse correlation, mostly reproductive and digestive cancers," said Dr Grant. "The strongest inverse correlation is with breast, colon, and ovarian cancer."Other cancers apparently affected by sunlight include tumours of the bladder, uterus, oesophagus, rectum, and stomach. The paper estimates that in 2002 insufficient exposure to ultraviolet B among Americans will lead to about 85 000 additional cancers out of 1 285 000 projected cases and 30 000 additional deaths out of 555 000 projected deaths, compared with what would occur if the entire country could obtain the same ultraviolet B levels as the southern states.The total number of additional deaths that might occur in the United States from melanoma and other skin cancers with the same increased level of ultraviolet B would be about 3000. "Current advice about avoiding sunlight is very parochial," said Dr Grant. "It’s a dermatologist’s viewpoint."Another study by Dr Grant, published in a previous issue of Cancer (2002;94:272-81), looked at rates of breast cancer in 35 countries. That study attributed 25% of cases of breast cancer in Europe to insufficient exposure to ultraviolet B."The correlation between breast cancer and latitude in Europe becomes clearest when Scandinavia is removed from the analysis, probably because they get so much vitamin D from fish consumption," he said. "They also put vitamin D in their milk."Vitamin D supplements in pill form are cheap and readily available, but it is not known whether they can act as a direct substitute for vitamin D synthesised from sunlight.
Cancer patients need LIGHT!According to a scientific article in "Health & Diet Times" (June/July 1982 issue) written by Lee de Vries, MD, cancer cells self-destruct within minutes after exposure to strong intense light. What happens is that the cancerous PLANT cell changes its formaldehyde into a plant sugar molecule giving off oxygen-ozone in the process and it is this element combination of O2 and O3 which causes the disintegration of the cancer cell. If you can't get enough sunshine, make absolutely sure that you obtain enough of the essential fatty acids (LA and LNA) ...so that your organism can produce the important prostaglandins, the precursors of hormones. ... Get as much exposure to sunlight and fresh air as you possibly can and watch your tumors and cancers shrink away.*Dr. Jürgen Buche
Healing with light and color in my eyes will be among the great healing modalities of the future, as they have been in the past - since we ARE “children of the light”. Read here about the enormous healing power of sunlight (yes!), the strong influence of different light sources on cancer incidence and healing, “man as an antenna for sunlight” as well as about Photodynamic Therapy and healing cancer with UV light (Photoluminescence Therapy). As you will see from the articles featured here, many erudite authors have arrived at a similar conclusion: the sun, used wisely and with discrimination, is one of our greatest healing boons, including the prevention and healing of cancer, and our gradual alienation from the sun, particularly over the course of the previous centuries, is one central contributing factor in the epidemic of cancer and other diseases which we are currently witnessing. It may also hold one of the major keys to stem the dismal tide and to allow health - rather than disease - to become the norm again.
A personal advice would be to get as much (non-burning!) sunlight (without wearing glasses or sunscreen) as you can while avoiding certain artifical light sources such as fluorescent lighting. In this context, make sure to learn about Dr. Johanna Budwig’s natural cure protocol in which sunlight exposure is one of the essential healing factors*. Two extracts from her book Flax Oil as a True Aid highlight the vital importance she assigned to sunlight as a crucial healing and health maintenance factor and why the “electrons in our food [from essential Omega3 fatty acids] serve as the resonance system for the sun's energy
