Can Lack of Sun Cause Cancer?* Can The Remedy be so Easy?**

A friend from my work sent the following over to me yesterday. *Disclaimer #1: The "medical" statement made in this entry was the opinion of the author and does not reflect actual medical advice. Please consult your doctor concerning the taking of Vitamin D3.

During the women's health seminar at Delnor Hospital in April, the presenter talked about how our fear of sun has caused an increase in cancer rates. There could be a deficiency of Vitamin D3, which many doctors now believe is causing a number of ills in the US.

The presenter said that men in MN, in particular, had a greater incidence of prostate cancer than the sunnier states like FL. She recommended that men get more sun and had the attached picture for a suggestion.

I thought you and Chuck would appreciate it.


Are you all ready?

Here's the picture.

Who thinks this might count as a "butt" joke? Let's hear your comments!

i don't know if this picture should be categorized as a butt joke, because all i can see is a decapitated body.

good tid-bit about the need for more sun, though! : )

And I thought sunburn was painful on my face and neck!

This looks like a good remedy to me, and since prayer is also important, this kills two birds with one stone since you're already on your knees. (Of course, you also don't want God to think that you're mooning him...or that you have your head in the sand)!
