Toss your sunscreen and step out of the shadows: part four Do you have this risk factor for skin cancer? The answer may be written in your fingernails. People are usually surprised to learn that zinc deficiency is sometimes written on their bodies in what may seem like an unlikely place: The fingernails. Go ahead and take a look at your own fingernails right now. Do you see any little white spots. These are zinc deficiency spots. The best food source for zinc by far is oysters lol... I don’t know about you, but I just haven’t developed a taste for those things 😂. If your the same I’d rely on herring and other seafood, eggs, liver and beef, which are all good zinc sources. Although zinc is a well known supplement for a variety of skin conditions it’s potential to reduce skin cancer risk is a well kept secret. Zincs critical role along with folic acid and vitamin B12 (which I will be touching on tomorrow) in repairing damaged DNA, zinc will help damaged skin cells restore themselves to health before the same damage leads to cancer. Regardless of how many foods above you decide to incorporate into your diet, you should also take 25 to 30 milligrams of zinc in supplementation form for the best chance of lowering the risk of skin cancer. Have a great day 💪🏼

Toss away your sunscreen and step out of the shadows: part three As mentioned in part one I would continue this discussion through the week this week. Yesterday covering how folic acid would help. Today I will be be bringing vitamin A into the light. Vitamin A is very similar to folic acid in its connection to skin cancer. Like folic acid, vitamin A assists with cellular repair and lack of this nutrient can result in cellular damage dermatologists blame only on the suns rays. The protective metabolite of vitamin A is called retinoic acid. Researchers have reported that ultraviolet irradiation from the sun causes a major loss of retinoic acid receptors in the skin cells. But if levels of vitamin A are sufficient, more retinoic acid can be formed. There are relatively few dietary sources of vitamin A itself. Eggs, liver and fish liver oils are the most widely available sources. Impotent to note however, you can overdose on Vitamin A. Symptoms include headache, dry skin and pain in the bones. Quantities of up to 75,000 iu are generally safe but you don’t need that much for skin cancer prevention. To lower your risk take 40,000 iu of vitamin A daily. Tomorrow I will discuss zinc. The answer may be written on your fingernails.

Toss your sunscreen and step out of the shadows: part two. In part one we discussed the sunscreen myth where in part 2 and moving forward will be discussing what foods and specific nutrients are most important. Folic acid is destroyed rapidly by heat, cold and exposure to light. So it’s sunlight’s destructive effect on folic acid in the skin, not the actual sun exposure itself, that accounts for a significant part of the skin cancer problem. When skin DNA is damaged cells depend on folic acid, vitamin B, and zinc get right to work repairing the damage, and the skin cell is less likely to become cancerous. Folic acid has been the number one dietary vitamin deficiency for decades. It’s no wonder skin cancer has risen in response. Without sounding like your mother, eat your vegetables. Spinach and other deep green vegetables. Brewers yeast is also a good source. Even if you already eat the foods above it’s still a good idea to take folic acid as a supplement. You can use at least 1,000 micrograms daily. There have been no recorded folic acid overdoses. Each day this week I will run education Sunday covering other nutrients reducing skin cancer risk. Part three tomorrow.
