From fire and water came the spark of life of which emerged a complex biological system of what we know now as the human body. The purpose, the biological purpose of how are body was designed in order to survive the challenges of our environment is not only rudimentary, but primordial in origin. Sun exposure, temperature changes, food intake, immune strength; these our all elements that effect and challenge our bodies future level of survival. A lack of sunlight, for example, can have an effect on lowering Vitamin D levels which could result in larger health issues later. A lack of Vitamin D can also increase the risk of many types of cancer and lung diseases. This is the top reason for our need to be exposed to sunlight in order that our body receives and produces enough Vitamin D. The fact that electrons from the sun must pass through the skin to be processed in cells is example which demonstrates that ‘skin’ is a natural receiver or conduit of sunlight, in the form of electrons. These electrons are then processed within our skin to produce active levels of Vitamin D which maintain healthy processes within our body. This is another reason why we should not overlook the importance of maintaining healthy skin in relation to sun exposure. Ten minutes daily is sufficient. Sunlight also prevents many bacterial and viral infections. More importantly, sunlight strengthens our immune system by providing the platform to build our white blood cell count, and having a normal healthy level of White Blood Cells by which our body maintains a healthy immune system. The importance of maintaining our skin should not stop at our appearance, it now becomes a health issue pertinent to the very nature of our survival.

SUNSCREENS CAUSING CANCER?
What! Sunscreens cause skin cancer? Why is it that the very entity you entrust to protect your skin, can turn on you and cause the detrimental skin cancer. Though the common consensus among the medical establishment still strongly supports the use of sunscreens, there is a growing consensus among progressive researchers that the use of sunscreens does not prevent skin cancer. Do you remember, when we thought nothing of spraying our bodies with mosquito spray? Did we really think that that this practice was safe? Did we really know that we were spraying pesticide on our skin? Does anybody get the picture? According to the old cliché, does anybody see what is wrong with this picture? The picture is that we readily accept the “status quo” as being mainstream acceptable and right. We are failing to think for ourselves (because we don’t know any better), and failing to interpret our own bodies communication directed toward us. In doing so, we are failing ourselves and inadvertently leaving ourselves to the control of outside mainstream sources…
SKIN CARE IN THE SUMMER
Skin care in the summer is approached differently than skin care in the winter. I don’t believe in sunscreens. If your skin is healthy you don’t need sunscreens. I was at Disneyland the other day and noticed Mom’s slathering their children with sunscreen. It made me sick to see that the natural process of the skin was being blocked. The question is, “What would we do if their was no sunscreen”? What is interesting in the summer, is when we sweat, we feel it is gross and unclean, and we are quick to prevent it by washing it off. When, in actuality, there is a benefit to the skin by the action of sweating. Sweat is a protective factor that helps maintain pH and health. In the summertime, if your skin is functioning properly, you should not have problem in the sun. If you overbath, over use bar soap or body washes, loofas and wash clothes, salt scrubs or sugar scrubs, and don’t allow your skin to sweat. You will therefore need more skin care products to repair and maintain your skin.
