Script below
+
Have you ever wondered why we are seeing dramatic increases in health problems since our great-grandparents' time?
+
A hundred years ago, people mainly lived and worked outdoors.
+
+
Many were farmers.
+
+
Clothes were hung outside to dry.
+
Children played outdoors.
+
Almost everyone spent most of their day outdoors.
+
They rode horses.
+
But now things have changed.
+
+
Most of us work and play indoors, where we have air conditioning.
+
+
We work more on computers than on farms..
+
+
We wash and dry our clothes indoors.
+
+
We watch TV and surf the Internet and play video games.
+
+
+
+
+
We ride in air-conditioned autos and airplanes and trucks.
+
We even swim indoors.
+
So, what does all this indoor activity mean?
+
Less sun!
+
+
Could less sun be associated with more disease?
+
+
Let's find out.
+
From sunlight, our skin makes a vital substance, Vitamin D.
+
Vitamin D, which is actually a hormone rather than a vitamin, has a major impact on our bodies.
+
It increases activation in more than 2000 genes
+
This increased gene activation allows the body to combat disease.
+
It is these changes that help us to combat disease.
+
In fact, over 5000 scientific studies have shown the clear association of Vitamin D deficiency with more than 100 diseases and health problems,
+
most of which have seen dramatic increases over the past 50 years.
+
These include some of the big ones: cancer, diabetes, osteoporosis, Alzheimer’s, multiple sclerosis,obesity and heart disease
+
Even rickets, which supposedly had gone away 80 years ago, has reappeared.
+
Are YOU at risk for these diseases?
+
Do YOU get enough Vitamin D?
+
+
Probably not.
+
+

+
More than 9 out of 10 people worldwide don't get enough Vitamin D.
+
+
+
Ask yourself: Do you spend a lot of time indoors?
+
Do you wear sunscreen or protective clothing when you do go outdoors?
+
Many people think that 10 minutes outdoors is enough to get all the Vitamin D they need from the sun.
+
But the fact is, for most people, that unless you spend a fair amount of time outdoors every day in full sun with minimal clothing and no sunscreen,
+
you aren't getting enough Vitamin D to protect against disease.
+
You need to stay in the sun for 3 hours if you are standing up in a short sleeve shirt, 20 minutes if lying down in a bathing suit.
+
Even food no longer provides as much Vitamin D as it did 100 years ago.
+
For example, in 1900, pie crust was made with lard from pigs raised outdoors.
+
Back then, just one piece of a double-crust pie provided 2000 IU of Vitamin D
+
Today, pie crust is made from vegetable oil or shortening.
+
How much Vitamin D?
+
Zero.
+
The good news is, you don't need sunlight or lard from pigs raised in outdoors in order to get your Vitamin D.
+
A simple supplement can provide all you need to prevent or even treat serious disease.
+
But how do you find out if you have enough Vitamin D?
+
You can, of course, have a blood test
+
A reading of at least 40 nanograms per milliliter or or 100 nanomoles per liter, is optimal.
+
Or, you can do a quick, easy test on yourself.
+
Just press hard on each of your shin bones and then on your sternum - the bone in your chest between your lowest ribs.
+
+
Did at least two of them hurt?
+
+
Sore bones are an indication that you are probably very deficient.
+
So, let's say you are deficient - this is very likely if you have a major disease, or are elderly,
+
have had recent surgery or illness, or you are pregnant; a breastfed infant would also be at risk.
+
How much Vitamin D should you take?
+
This, of course, would depend on your individual situation,, but many studies indicate that
+
4000 iu daily is necessary to bring the average adult up to 40 nanograms and maintain this healthy level.
+
+
+
If you know you are at risk for being deficient, you might want to start with a larger dose.
+
You may also want to take more than 4000 iu of Vitamin D daily if you are elderly, obese, or plan soon to get pregnant or have surgery.
+
You should start feeling noticeably healthier and more energetic within a few days to weeks.
+
+
+
Are people starting to notice the benefits of Vitamin D?
+
You bet!
+
When one doctor raised all of his patients’ levels to 80 nanograms, or 200 nanomoles, he noticed that no matter their age or health condition,
+
their average of 4 office visits per year dropped down to one visit.
+
More and more people are getting Vitamin D tests, a 10 times increase in just 3 years.
+
+

+
+
And research on Vitamin D is accelerating - more research has now been done on .
+
+
Vitamin D than on Vitamins A, C, E, and K combined
+
+
So, if you want to feel better and get or stay healthy, taking a Vitamin D supplement is probably the single best thing you can do for your body.
+
And it won't cost you a trip to Hawaii.
+
Do yourself a favor.
+
Read the studies if you need more proof.
+
+ Then try it.
