Welcome to the Dr. Berg's Healthy Keto and Interminate Fasting Podcast, where Dr.

Berg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing healthy weight.

We're going 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, wow, skin cancer, avoid this radiation. It's

something very, very bad. You have to realize this UV radiation, which is a part of the spectrum

of energy from the 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 just agree and click off,

hear me out, because we're really talking about the dosage, okay? Small amounts of UV radiation.

Now, I'm not going to lie. Too much of it, chronic exposure to UV radiation is really bad. It can

increase your risk 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 ultraviolet radiation.

You have UVA, UVB, and UVC. Let's first talk about UVC and get that on the way because

it doesn't really pertain to what we're going to talk about because you're really not exposed to
