From the wall of my Friend, Dr. A. Haleem from USA.
Dear Friends
Vitamin D is actually a hormone which has receptors present all over the body.
Sunlight is the best thing God provide us, without it there’s no life.
Our skin made Vit D with the help of sunlight , and Vit D is made of cholesterol.
Majority of people about 70% are deficient in it.
Vit D is hardly present in food ( mushrooms is the food which has highest content ) , majority will get from sunlight, fair skin people need 15 minutes of direct sunlight exposure , and dark skin people need about 45 minutes of direct exposure.
Daily requirement is about 3000 to 5000 iu , but for obese people the requirement can be double as it stores in fat .
No side effects of Vit D.
Normal level of Vit D is 50 or more now, thumb of role if you taking 1000 iu of Vit D3 it will raise level by 10.
Vit D boost immunity and prevent us from getting infection.
It helps to cure diabetes, blood pressure, depression, Alzheimer’s, arthritis osteoarthritis ,asthma, prevent cancer, it actually helps to cure all diseases.
It prevents preeclampsia in pregnancy, strength the pelvic muscles during birth and prevent cesarean section.
It prevents preterm labor too .
Pregnant and nursing mothers has to take 5000 iu of VitD, there is a small amount of Vit D present in multivitamin .
Vit D prevent rickets in infants .
Ultraviolet B rays which form Vit D , present in sunlight from 10 am to 2pm.
It does not crosses the glass.
During winter in USA area above Atlanta, sun rays do not carry Ultraviolet B rays, so it is better to take Vit D supplements in a winter.
Major component of sunlight is near infrared red rays which is present throughout the day time and it decreases oxidative stress and also produces nitric oxide in our body.
Nitric oxide is one of the strongest vasodilator , it dilates blood vessel and so lower BP and lower heart attack.( dilates coronary arteries).
nitric oxide by dilating blood vessel will leads to more oxygen and nutrients to the tissues and it helps in healing wounds, bone fractures , decrease the pain and prevent neuropathy.
Diabetes is a condition which decrease blood supply to various organs causing kidney damage , gangrene and neuropathy.
High blood sugar and high uric acid inactivates nitric oxide.
Other source of nitric oxide is green leafy vegetables like spinach, kale , beets leaves and beet , pomegranate etc.
Also nitric oxide will produce , by doing high intensity exercise and nasal breathing .
As I mentioned before nitric oxide is the back bone of cardiovascular system, it keep the arteries open , thus cure high BP, erectile dysfunction prevents heart attack ,stroke and Alzheimer’s.
Nitric oxide was discovered by three American scientists in 1998 and they got noble prize.
Nitric oxide is a molecule of life .
Besides all above benefits of sunlight, it also fixed our circadian rhythm and thus regulates our sleep, also alleviates mood and improves learning.
