honestly yes i think i was open minded in the sense that i researched some of the concepts he talked about and that I learned a few new things from the articles. but linking obesity to blue rays and not diet and exercise it's a concept i couldn't agree with and i don't think it has anything to do with having a scientific background probably 99.99% of people would think the same. 🙂
I have trained my own skin to adapt to the sun. Last summer I worked up to 2 hrs straight at UV12 without burning or sunspots and I’m caucasian + 25% Irish. There is more nuance to sun damaging skin. Do you know what POMC is? This will give you a great intro to the biophysics that I’m talking about: https://youtu.be/d7qjh4BIGbc?si=pTlUGWL-Dlf00YKz
Alright I watched 75% of the video and I really made an effort to follow along but I really think there is a lot of nonsense in it. Maybe some parts are legit but since he also says a lot of nonsense you can't really tell the difference between what's real and what's false. He throws some statements out there with such conviction making it seem like real scientific facts supported by real scientific evidence but he probably just made them up. For example, he says Blue light makes vitamin A, Vitamin A is yellow, Blue light makes you fat.. Especially the last point makes no sense at all. Saying that UV rays affect people's weight is just ridiculous. I personally avoid the sun like the plague and I weigh less than 50 kg.
I found these articles that you could read a little bit about the subject, at least there is all the bibliography:
https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37237866/
https://www.mdpi.com/2076-3921/10/6/920
https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5905393/
This guy is definitely overstating the role of UV rays and completely ignoring the damage the sun does to your skin.
So, going back to the story of training your skin to the sun, it's the same thing, it's not supported by scientific evidence. Maybe your skin tolerates the sun better or you feel like you get fewer sunburns, but the damage at the cellular level is there.
you're really don't want to wake up one day with your skin completely damaged and you'll feel like you look 15 years older than people your age and maybe you'll think, yeah maybe it wasn't a good idea to listen to a charlatan.
la seule chose dégoutante dans tout ça c'est que vous êtes là à essayer de trouver des excuses pour le fait de tuer 30 milles personnes dont 14000 enfants. comment vous arrivez à dormir le soir après avoir vu les photos des cadavres d'enfants et les photos d'enfants qui ont perdus leurs jambes ou bras? il faut vraiment avoir perdu son humanité pour défendre ça. Pas la peine de me répondre parce que je perdrai jamais mon temps à parler à une personne comme vous.
I think there's no point in going into the subject of covid which seems to be a sensitive topic for some people, but in general I really don't understand the critisim of doctors and the medical community's handling of it. They're just normal people who got vaccinated like everyone else. If there's a problem with the vaccine they and their families will be affected too.
It's not that medicine is moving slowly, I just don't think there are any major discoveries that would have a huge impact. I think they are mainly working on protocols and guidelines for the management of pathologies. And big pharma is mainly working on targeted therapies in the form of antibodies that will target specific proteins in tumors.
I'm still watching the video I will tell what I think about it tomorrow.
I'm starting to regret commenting on the initial post since I'm finding myself reading scientific articles
Before watching the video, there's something I don't really understand. so according to google there are 12 million doctors worldwide. I would say 99.99% probably agree on core medical principales. BUT some people choose to listen to the minuscule percentage of doctors who really sound untrustworthy (I even checked this doctor's linkedIn profile). These 'doctors' seem to be pushing these bizarre theories likely for some kind of personal gain. going on podcasts and stuff like that. I think it's really unfortunate that people have such a trust issue with the medical community.

it's a 2 hour video
I have a little problem with this theory that something is good just because our ancestors did it. They did what they had to do with what they knew back then and they had to be outdoors because they didnt have the choice.Think about it, there's tons of stuff they did we now know was crazy, like incestious mariages in ancient cultures to keep the bloodline pure, And let's be real, our ancestors weren't exactly living to 120 so I dont understand the idea of 'let's copy their lifestyle'.
Totally agree that a 'nice skin' is 100% subjective. Some people might not care about wrinkles caused by the sun or sunspots. But there is an objective part about a 'healthy skin': too much sun exposure can lead to skin cancer, just like cigarettes and lung cancer.
I didn't say that we are descendants of people who stayed in the sun for 10 to 30 minutes a day. Yes clearly our ancestors spent more time outdoors but science now concluded that it wasn't necessarily a good thing. I think our ancestors didn't worry much about getting melanomas at 60 years old, considering that not many of them lived to that age, and even worse they didn't care much about the premature aging caused by the sun. a lot of things are great and beneficial in moderation but can turn toxic when abused. You talk about the fact that the sun is fundamental for the human body, yes it surely has an effect on boosting mood and the production of vitamin D, but honestly I see no benefit in overexposure. Personally I feel much better when I have healthy skin.
je cherche pas à paraître cool, intelligente ou quoi que ce soit? je voulais juste partager mon avis sur le sujet
I'm not saying he burnt his nose in the sense of a sunburn but more like irreversible sunspots.
Yeah, I trust the science since I'm a pharmacist, so I guess you could say I'm a scientist too?
for the connection between health and nature I still don't really get it m, but if you've got studies to back this up feel free to share.
Honestly I'm not really sure where you're going with this. Are humans supposed to spend hours in the sun just because their ancestors did? Prehistoric humans had to spend hours in the sun out of necessity; I'm pretty sure if you offered them a roof, a couch, and an air conditioner they wouldn't say no. I get that some people love the sun but there are people who love cigarettes too and that doesn't make them any less harmful.
If you want to believe in some unfounded theory that you can train your skin to adapt to the sun nobody's stopping you. But the facts are there: the sun damages the skin.
I'm not sure what you mean by 'cosmetic intuition' but yeah sunspots equal sun damage. I never said melanomas are caused "only" by sun exposure, there are multiple factors involved like age, fair skin, family history, maybe even genetics. But excessive sun exposure DOES increase the risk of developing melanoma (although if you don't trust medicine and scientific studies that's another issue). Disconnection with nature causing skin cancer? LOL wtf? I guess people can hug trees all day long but that won't prevent them from getting sick. And I don't really get the comparison with other animal species because you can't compare our skin to an animal's covered in fur. So yeah the sun is essential for life on earth but humanity has evolved and realized that prolonged sun exposure is harmful, I really don't see why it's insulting to the sun if we decide not to overexpose ourselves to it LOL. Like are we supposed to worship the sun or something?
Based on your profile pic where we can see that you already burnt you nose, maybe it's a good idea to stay indoors and soak up some blue light instead of risking more skin damage. Your skin will definitely thank you. btw you only need 10-30mn of sun exposure to get vitamin D
TL;DR There is no safe way to use TikTok, and our strong recommendation is to delete the app from all your devices.

The only reason tiktok might get banned in the US is because it opened the eyes of the younger generation to the genocide in Palestine. Some zionist billionaires weren't happy about it and kept talking about it on twitter with graphs and stuff and now BUM tiktok's about to be banned.
