581. Why Sunshine Is Good For You

The Doctor Is In Podcast - A podcast by Dr. A.W. Martin and Dr. A.P. Martin

For most of us, getting enough sunshine during the winter months is impossible. That’s why so many are deficient in vitamin D! Dr. Martin looks at two studies about sunshine in today’s podcast.  The first one out of Denmark says the more sun you get, your likelihood of getting breast cancer is decreased by 17%. Breast cancer is quickly overtaking lung cancer as the number one cancer in North America!  The second study, hot off the press, says those who get the most exposure to the sun have a decreased risk of serious side effects from COVID-19. It is imperative that people get out in the sun, especially now when we are being forced to stay at home! Tune in to hear more about these studies and a brief history about sunscreens and suntan lotion!
