The Shocking Truth About Skin Cancer: What You’re Not Being Told About the Sun
Is everything we’ve been told one big fat lie? The answer seems to be a resounding yes.
While the public is constantly told to avoid the sun to prevent skin cancer, what they’re not telling you is that sunlight is arguably the most important nutrient for the human body.
And get this: avoiding sunlight can double one’s risk of dying prematurely, and it also increases the risk of all other cancers.
Sunlight also:
• is critical for mental health
• reduces the risk of breast cancer
• is vital for cardiovascular health
• increases one’s longevity
So, why all the fearmongering? The answer seems to be “follow the money.”
A Midwestern Doctor writes:
“A remarkably sophisticated public relations campaign was launched to transform society for the benefit of [the dermatology] industry.”
The demonization of the sun has “allowed the dermatologists to cast themselves as heroes and to stir up as much anxiety as possible about the sun—especially as a psychological investment they had to make constantly putting sunscreen on would make them more likely to go to their dermatologist.”
Moreover, the skin cancer fear campaign has created “a massive sales funnel by being allowed to do a massive number of routine full body skin exams (on otherwise healthy individuals) and hence have a huge pool of potential cancers to biopsy or excise (remove).”
Lastly, the war against sunlight has allowed them “to piggyback onto the fear the medical industry has marketed around cancer to justify charging a lot of money to do something questionable to prevent cancer and having every patient go along with it the second they hear the dreaded ‘c’ word.”

So, there you have it. Now, you understand why they want you to fear the sun. 🤔

organize your week like this to be closer to the best version of yourself
i interpret the process of becoming our best version as climbing a ladder, on each step, we learn something new that serves us, and the next we complement it with something new, and so on until we reach the end and after many small habits we have become that version we wanted to be. little by little we are learning and although sometimes it is complicated to climb because of the adversities that may arise we can always take up the path again and put into practice what we have learned. that said, today i want to share a method that i have created to organize our habits and thus fulfill them more effectively and feel motivated. in this post i will only present some examples, you have to apply it to your own situation and my recommendation is to start now even with small habits that will be the ones that will lead you to success. i recommend that you try it for this week and write down your results, if it has worked for you keep using this "organization method" and adding new habits or increasing its time.
organize by categories.
create groups to categorize the habits you want to implement in your life, for example like this (the habits are examples, use your own)
🌿 health (body and nutrition)
10 minutes of exercise every day
30 minutes of walking every day
drink a lot more water
start eating consciously
one self-care day a week, for example on friday. we can take this day more relaxed and take more care of ourselves, dedicate more time to our personal and mental care.
do massage with the quartz roller and gua sha
make an appointment for nails, hairdresser, spa, eyelashes or even go to a coffee shop with yourself.
use a face mask and hair mask
🌿 personal growth
read 10 pages a day
listen to personal growth podcasts or audiobooks (choose one and listen to it all week long)
choose an affirmation and write it down every day
record in a diary or an app your mood and what you did during the day.
create a to-do list of what you will do for the day (the night before)
choose a video of affirmations and listen to it every day at a time that suits you best
🌿 studies
study about what you are studying or training for.
dedicate e.g. 20-30 minutes each day to study or review.
study a new language, 15 minutes a day, 5 days a week.
🌿 hobbies
1 - 2 hours to what you enjoy doing (depends on the day and your schedule)
you can write down in a notebook the groups you want to choose for yourself and then the habits you are going to implement, even if they are very small, for example 5 minutes of daily exercise, that is a good start.
to stay focused and not fall into old habits we can also replace the old habits with new ones that we want to implement in this way.
old habit: too much time on instagram new habit: reading or listening to an audiobook while i take a walk. or even just 15 minutes of social media a day.
other examples:
drinking soda or alcoholic beverages > drinking a lot more water and starting to drink natural juices.
watch a lot of series on netflix (or any streaming platform) > read or listen to podcasts/audiobooks that nourish my mind.
overthinking, worrying > meditating for about 5 minutes
lying in bed without doing anything > organizing my room
think in negative > think about the things you would like to happen to you
other tips to connect with your best version
write in your diary how you would act, be and what habits your best version would have. this will give you clarity about what you want and you will feel closer to that because you will know how to act.
establish small habits to start with and take it as a kind of game or test during this week. don't push yourself too hard.
at times when you don't know how to act or react, think about how your best version would act and what it would do.
write down things you are proud of or would like to be proud of.
if you are easily distracted or do not know what to do at any given moment, set alarms to know what to do at that moment.
if you use social media a lot, set a limit of use.
choose habits that you know you will be able to do easily, that will make you gain confidence and little by little establish those habits in which you have procrastinated or which are more difficult for you.
think big, open yourself to the possibilities that life offers you every day and keep a positive attitude towards any situation.
apps i recommend: habit: it serves to keep track of your habits and also get organized, it's a kind of to-do list. daylio: you can record your mood, what you did during the day and your habits, it also allows you to write and add photos. it is very complete, it can be used as a digital diary. notion: to get organized.
duolingo: if you want to learn a language a few minutes a day will be enough. i learned a lot of grammar in english thanks to this, which works if you practice daily.
and as always my blog is about this and there will be many more related posts in addition to the existing ones, all to be our best version 🤍 in fact if you try it i would love to know your results.

‼️NO WHITE SALT‼️
☕️Taste a cup of coffee infused with the benefits of Himalayan salt!
And you will never go back!
Not only does the salt enhance the flavor of your coffee by bringing out its natural sweetness and reducing bitterness,
😲But it also :
• Provides you a boost of electrolytes
• Improved hydration
• Reduced muscle cramping
🤷‍♂️How to do it?
– Simply sprinkle a pinch (about 1/8 tsp) of Himalayan salt on top of your coffee grounds before brewing.
(For one cup)
🤔How does it work?
Himalayin salt reduces the acidity’s of coffee because It contains minerals like :
• Calcium
• Magnesium
• Potassium
Which also help overall health and well-being.
Give it a try and see the difference it makes in your morning routine! 🤔

beginner guide to vitamins?
I am uneducated on vitamins and what they do for you, I only know the basics, however I did do research before posting. This is a disclaimer that I am not a doctor, and your general practitioner knows best for you. I made this into an everyday vitamin guide instead, as it is a lot more simpler for me and to avoid misinformation ❀
EVERYDAY GUIDE TO VITAMINS
About vitamins that best support you when consumed on a daily basis! I used food instead of supplements because of no specification.
VITAMIN A
Supports vision, a healthy immune system and cell growth. 
Sweet potatoes, carrots, spinach, kale and liver.
Or, look for foods rich in beta-carotene. 
B VITAMINS
Support many bodily functions and the proper development your body.
Whole grains, leafy greens, nuts or seeds and legumes. 
VITAMIN C 
Acts as an antioxidant, helps to heal wounds, supports the immune system and collagen production. 
Citrus fruits like oranges, grapefruits or lemons. Strawberries, kiwi, bell peppers and broccoli. 
VITAMIN D 
Supports bone health, immune system and regulation of moods. 
Fatty fish like salmon, mackerel, sardines. Diary products like milk, yoghurt and cheese. 
VITAMIN E 
Supports skin health and is anti-inflammatory. 
Nuts and seeds, spinach and broccoli. 
CALCIUM 
Helps with muscle contraction, strong teeth and bones and nerve function. 
Diary products like milk, yoghurt or cheese. Kale and spinach. 
IRON
Supports healthy red blood cell production and energy levels.
Red meat, poultry, fish. Legumes, tofu and spinach. 
OMEGA 3 FATTY ACIDS
Anti-inflammatory, support brain function and heart health. 
Fatty fishes or seeds. 
This post was a bit difficult, if mine wasn’t what you were looking for, here’s one that I would recommend.
