I want to talk about a very powerful anti-inflammatory that you've never related to being an

anti-inflammatory before.

In fact, you probably think of this thing I'm going to talk about in a negative light,

like something you should avoid, but it is a potent anti-inflammatory.

And the cost of it is pretty inexpensive. In fact, it's free.

Ultraviolet radiation. But I even say the word UV radiation, you probably immediately think,

sun, I mean human beings, animals and plants have coexisted with these rays for a very long

time.

So we have developed all sorts of adaptation to survive this radiation and use it to our advantage.

In fact, when we're dealing with the sun's rays, ultraviolet radiation is the only part of that

sun's energy that you can make vitamin D.

And you know how important vitamin D is.

It's the most important vitamin for your

immune system. It's the most potent anti-inflammatory, but it's created from ultraviolet radiation.

Now, before you disagree and click off, hear me out, because we're really talking about the

dosage, okay, small amounts of UV radiation. I'm not going to

of melanoma. It can produce a lot of wrinkles. It can take the water right out of your skin and make

your skin very dehydrated. It's all about the dosage

of this radiation, but a small amount here and there, not the amount that it would create a burn,

but maybe a very slight tan could be very, very beneficial. So let me first explain what makes up
