The Sun is the source of all the energy of life on planet Earth. It is a well known fact. We get our energy from animal or vegetable food. Animals get their energy from plants in turn. Green plants obtain their energy from the Sun. They use a process called photosynthesis, in which carbon dioxide and water are taken in a simple sugar, glucose, which is used as a warehouse for the energy of the Sun.
There is another, more subtly, in which the Sun gives us energy. A very gentle, regular exposure to the Sun to improve vitality, as if reflecting a strengthening of the force of life. As many fruit ripened Sun harvested much better than the green fruit taste, we can also "sun downplay" ourselves by exposure to the Sun. The radiation from the Sun is absorbed by the millions of terminals nerve in skin and transmitted to our entire nervous system. Supposedly, this is why people feel fed after brief sunbathing.
Vitamin d found in foods of animal origin, but not in plant foods. Vegetarians are excluded from vitamin D, unless small quantities of eggs and cheese are consumed. However, should consume vitamin, as it is easily obtained by careful sun exposure. Vitamin d is important to maintain a sufficient level of calcium and phosphorus in our blood, to provide our bones and teeth. If there is a deficiency of vitamin D, our bones become soft and curved.
There is also a change to develop osteoporosis. This occurs when the rate of absorption of old bones exceeds the deposition of new bone. Other factors, such as sex, race, hormonal status, family history, level of exercise and our diet also affects the risk of osteoporosis. More and more children, an adequate supply of vitamin d is very important.
Ultraviolet radiation is the component of light which produce vitamin d. We must expose ourselves direct from the Sun, because the beneficial form of ultraviolet light (UVB) enters not through the window glass. We need to be hours in the Sun to get that sufficient vitamin d. ten minutes during a short walk will be sufficient.
We must take care when expose you to the Sun. Our skin is not long periods of exposure to direct light from the Sun. Our skin may easily be damaged by long periods of exposure to the risk of skin cancer. The energy of the Sun quickly became devitalising and exhausting. The best time to be in the Sun is early in the morning before 9 a.m. or end of afternoon, after 16 h. When we are outdoors, filter us the light of the day by wearing sunglasses and sunscreen, and light is significantly changed from the reality. Sunlight has become artificial light.
"Few health educators appreciate daily and seasonal variations in the intensity and duration of sunshine to regulate our Biochemistry and Biorhythm," said Professor Ronald S.Laura and John Ashton, in natural health magazine in the August/September 1991 Edition, "daily exposure in the light of the day - not a threat - is part of the master plan nature to health."
