Lol, little doom break. I just got home from having an air brush tanning session (can't use tanning beds or the real sun because of the whole skin cancer situation) for my sister's wedding. I look like a different race now! Haha!!
I've missed having color.
Hmmmm....this just made a light bulb click on for me.
You don't go out in the sun much and when you do you apply copious amounts of sun screen, right?
Do you take vitamin D3 supplements?
This may be a contributor to some of your health issues if you are not taking any or are not taking a large enough dosage. I recommend you should take 20,000 IU a day of liquid vitamin D3. Make sure it's D3 and not just D. This sounds like a lot and your Dr. would probably say that's the amount we give as a quarterly shot. Don't worry about overdose, your body will pass whatever it doesn't use.
To put that amount in perspective...you will receive 10,000 IU just by standing in direct sunlight, sans sunscreen, for only 20-30 minutes. The paltry amounts passed off as proper daily intakes are a joke. Especially when you live at a higher latitude, north or south, as the sunlight or rather energy we get from the sun is significantly less that what is received closer to the equator.
Just look at flu for example. You rarely hear about it affecting the tropics and wherever it is becoming prevalent is typically at higher latitudes during their winter season, when the least amount of sunlight is available and what is available is far less energetic than during the summer.
If I dug, I could find the studies I've read previously, of course they were done outside of the United States, that prove D3 is an effective treatment for illness and an outstanding preventative measure. It has been proven more effective than the flu vaccine among school children.
D3 is rarely talked about and when it is, it is merely glossed over. It's an effective, CHEAP, treatment that cannot be patented, per se, there's no profit in cures. Therefore big pharma talks it down and pushes their poison, at substantial profit.
If I happen to get a cold, my treatment is red wine, chocolate, vitamins D3, B-Complex, & C. I occasionally add Saint John's Wort, Reishi Mushroom, and other herbal remedies, some not necessarily legal, that can help significantly, if it's really bad. If I have sore throat or really congested chest, there are a number of herbal teas and maca root have helped me or friends/family I recommend them to.
Sorry, I know that's off topic, but I felt it was necessary to mention it to you.
