Posted by Dr. Lucinda on March 4, 2010
New Eye-Opening Book Reveals Vitamin D as a Critical Player in the Prevention of Cancer, Auto-immune Disease, Depression and a Staggering Number of Other Diseases You May Not Realize are Linked to Vitamin D Deficiency. Learn How to Protect Your Family and Yourself From Vitamin D Deficiency!
Powerful Medicine: Vitamin D, Shedding Light on a Worldwide Health Crisis
is released by author Lucinda Messer, N.D. with Sidse Powell
Did you know that vitamin D deficiency is indirectly responsible for hundreds of thousands of deaths worldwide? According to author and Naturopathic Doctor Lucinda Messer, the lack of sunshine, whether it’s due to higher latitudes, cloudy days, polluted air, or because our skin is soaked in sunscreen or covered in clothing, is a major reason we have epidemic cases of cancer and auto-immune diseases all over the world. Messer says, “Vitamin D is the cheapest, most cost effective health insurance you could ever purchase.”
In her eye-opening book Powerful Medicine: Vitamin D, Shedding Light on a Worldwide Health Crisis, Messer not only explains the catastrophic effects of vitamin D deficiency, but she details the powerful effects that ensue when optimal levels are achieved in the body. For example, activated vitamin D can: halt tumor growth, reduce tumor size, improve heart health, improve insulin production, improve mental health and provide protection from the common cold, viruses and much, much more.
Messer’s book is poised to be a crucial wake-up call for people who assume they have sufficient vitamin D blood levels. “In my 15 years of clinical practice, I have rarely seen any patient with a baseline serum level of vitamin D over 40 ng/ml. This means is there is not enough activated vitamin D available in their blood to fight off viruses, microbes, cancer cells and to arm them against auto-immunity, leaving them defenseless to attack and at risk for succumbing to numerous diseases.” Purchase Powerful Medicine: Vitamin D today and learn how become powerfully healthy.

Doctor, I would like to talk to you about one of your Vitamin D Quiz questions and the answer. I’m referring to question 13 where you ask about tanning beds and report that most tanning salons promote UVA. I own tanning salons with over 600 sun beds, yet none of them are equipped with UVA only lamps. All of equipment includes UVB lamps as the primary source of light with a few UVA only lamps to augment the session experience. That is the industry norm. Some salons within the industry carry UVA only equipment but usually then only one bed per store where typically twenty beds are present.
The source of that myth is the Skin Cancer Foundation which is an organization founded and principally supported by cosmetic producers to promote SPF sales and sun avoidance advice through the medical community. They use sales tactics similar to pharmaceutical companies. Passing themselves off as as legitimate in the same way as a mainstream pharmaceutical company in my opinion is deceptive. Their hidden agenda is to promote SPF sales.
The truth is that most all suntanning equipment emits light close to natural sunlight at noon on a beach on a sunny day at the equator. Assume that to be a value on one. Suntanning beds emit 1 to 1.3 of that same value on a minute to minute exposure. Meaning the typical sun bed exposure of 10 to 20 minutes is nearly as close to an ideal prescription for sunlight exposure as can be commonly and reliably obtained anywhere at anytime.
I’m very glad that you are out promoting and educating the public as to the value of UV/vitamin D benefits. Its a subject I have studied and followed in detail for nearly 20 years, and I am particularly happy to see the truth begin to breakout from under the cloud of the myths deliberately cast. You are one of only a few brave souls spreading the truth, so I would appreciate the opportunity to pass on this small bit of information to strengthen your position.
Please email me, and thank you again for your service to humanity.
