Can Sunshine Stop Multiple Sclerosis

For the last few decades we have talked about little else aside from why it is important to stay away from sunlight. We completely understand the hazards connected with it and do every little thing we can think of to keep it away from us. We don many layers of the highest SPF sunscreens that we can buy. We put huge old floppy hats on our heads. Even during the hottest seasons of the year we make ourselves put on long sleeves and pants. We do our best to remain only in the shady areas--some have even started carrying parasols and umbrellas around so that their skin never comes into contact with direct sunlight.


Some people think that perfumes like Michael Kors Perfume will protect their skin from the sun but that is not for certain.



Now we are beginning to understand that sunlight can actually help us. Can the sun actually help you?

A new study has been performed and it indicates that people who allow some time in direct natural light aren't as likely to get MS as the people who do everything they can to keep out of the sun. The study was originally performed to find out how Vitamin D affects the progression of Multiple Sclerosis. Eventually it became clear, however, that it was the Vitamin D our bodies generate as a response to exposure to the sun’s rays that seems to be at the root of the issue.



It's been recognized for a very long time that Vitamin D and the sun's rays can impact the way the immune system works and how it can contribute to Multiple Sclerosis. This particular study, though, is focused on how sunshine affects the people who are starting to experience the very earliest of MS symptoms. The target of the study is to discover how sunshine and Vitamin D might have an affect on the symptoms doctors call "precursor" to actual symptoms of the disease.



Unfortunately, there are not all that many methods of truly quantify the study's theory. The goal of the study is to figure out if sunlight can actually prevent the disease. Sadly, researchers have realized that the only way to prove this definitively is to monitor a person for his entire life. This is the only way to properly assess the already existent levels of Vitamin D in a person’s blood before the symptoms of MS start to show themselves. The way it is now, people who get normal exposure to the sun appear to experience fewer symptoms of MS than those who live in colder or darker climates--which isn't new news.



The fact that the risk of acquiring skin cancer rises proportionally to the amount of time you spend in direct sunlight (without protection) is also a problem. So, in an attempt to push away one disorder, you could be causing yourself to produce a different one. Of course, if it gets found quickly, skin cancer is very treatable and can even be cured. This isn't true for MS.



So should you improve your direct exposure to the sun so that you don’t get MS? Talk to your doctor to figure out if this is a good idea. Your doctor will look into your current state of health, your health history and even into your genetics to help you figure out if you even sit at risk for the disease at all. This will help a family doctor figure out what the best thing for you to do is.
