Statins or sunshine?


Coronary heart disease

After the examples of diseases, already given, that are helped by sunlioght and vitamin D, without the side effects of statins, what about coronary heart disease?

As we saw in "Sunshine and coronary heart disease", Coronary heart disease also benefits from going out in the sun in summer and taking vitamin D supplements in winter if you live in latitutes above about 35 degrees north or south.

And whatever you do, DON'T wear sunscreens as they stop the UVB needed to make vitamin D.

Go to Sunshine and: Cancer, diabetes, transplants, arthritis, multiple sclerosis, osteoporosis, coronary heart disease
