Cancer, Vitamin D, Sunlight

Well here is a quandary.
In the last entry I talked about Vitamin D.
And now they are studying the link between sunlight causing or maybe preventing certain cancers and diseases.
Of course radiation causes cancer, but it can also be used to treat cancer.

"Since vitamin D has been shown to play a protective role in a number of internal cancers and possibly a range of other diseases, it is important to study the relative risks to determine whether advice to avoid sun exposure may be causing more harm than good in some populations," Setlow warned.

And here's another article:
Doesn't sunlight cause cancer?
Yes, long-term exposure to ultraviolet radiation from the sun (UVA and UVB) has been shown to increase the risk of skin cancer. This is why it is recommended that we wear sunscreen and sun-protective clothing during the summer months.

How can sunlight also protect against cancer?
The answer lies in a vitamin that may play a role in controlling the production of cells - vitamin D. Vitamin D is manfactured in the skin when it is exposed to sunlight and it is this vitamin that may have a protective effect against certain cancers by preventing the overproduction of cells.

The Cure for Cancer?

Diet and Cancer, we keep hearing that.
Even Doctors in the US are coming around to the idea.
But wouldn't it be ironic and poetic in a way, if a 15-year-old kid actually discovered the cure.....

THE CURE FOR CANCER? Documentary Film Defies the American Medical Community's Prescribed Treatments for Cancer and Chronic Disease
An inspirational journey of a boy who sets out to investigate the direct link between diet and disease and in the process discovers the world's simplest cure for cancer: THE BEAUTIFUL TRUTH, written and directed by Steve Kroschel, will premiere at The Quad Cinema in New York City on November 14, 2008 with a platform release to follow.

Film critic Ronnie Scheib of Variety says the film is "courting controversy." The NYCMovieGuru, Avi Offer sees the film as "a vital, provocative and enlightening documentary. You'll be talking about it for weeks!"

Hailing from a small town in Alaska, 15-year-old Garrett lives on a wild animal reserve. After the accidental and tragic death of his mother, Garrett began spiraling downward. His father withdrew him from school to prevent him from flunking out, after which he was home-taught. Garrett's father recognized his son's interest in the dietary habits of their animals and assigned a book written by Dr. Max Gerson, which maintains that there is a direct link between diet and a cure for cancer.
