Healing With Light (XII) Does sun-bathing/sunlight really cause wrinkles & damage the skin?by Ulla, designer of Healing Cancer Naturally © 2006 Many articles featured on Healing Cancer Naturally extol the healing and health virtues and benefits of light and sunlight. In fact the alternative cancer therapy with the highest success rate I know of, developed by Dr. Johanna Budwig and covered in great detail at Budwig Diet & Protocol actually includes sunlight and sunbathing among the factors essential to healing. On the other hand, the official mainstream line, repeated wherever one may care to look, is that sun leads to irreversible skin damage, wrinkle formation (and even skin cancer in its extreme) and that only liberal use of sunscreen will prevent cosmetic as well as other skin damage induced by sun-bathing. For all those concerned by the question of “pruning” ;-) or wrinkle formation, here are some points to consider which speak to a different causation of both wrinkles and other skin damage: 1. Our skin is built from the inside and will clearly (or less than) reflect our nutritional and digestive status, see the in-depth research results of natural health researcher Dr. F.X. Mayr, M.D. (1875 - 1965). Topical application of cosmetic substances is less effective as a skin beautifier (and when using chemicals probably even deleterious) than optimising digestion and personal diet. 2. A simple lack of water or dehydration can lead to skin wrinkling. A number of people have reported smoother skin after taking up the “water cure”. Compare Greatest Hits: Water for more on dehydration and cancer. There is also a likely link between dehydration and skin impurities (unclear complexion etc.). 3. Additionally see Light supports life-extending factors in “Sensational tests on one-celled organisms: ...results showed without a doubt the ability of certain types of light to not only support cells in repairing their DNA, but also to support life-extending factors present within the DNA.” This should be of equal relevance to naturally occurring skin rejuvenation. 4. The question of whether the sun truly leads to skin cancer is addressed in articles featured at Healing With Light such as Skin Cancer, Malignant Melanoma & Sunlight. 5. None of the above does imply that in my eyes one should roast oneself in the sun until crisp and well done :-). Like with many things, moderation and balance may be best. See for instance the advice (differentiated according to the individual) given in Edgar Cayce on healing with sunlight. Concluding advice: With skin wrinkles, first take a good look at your digestion and general diet and blame the sun in the last instance only. ;-) And last but not least: what you believe can have a powerful influence on what you experience and on your body, see Healing & Your Mind. So to be physically young, consider yourself young.
