Ok, the propaganda continues, it is Slip, Slop, Slap, Seek, Slip. Seek, being find a tree, and Slip being slip on some sunglasses!

But it is the way they are pushing this down our throats that is seriously p*** me off!


I know that we have discussed the roll of a dice, but this AU, ad, basically says if you go out in the sun, and enjoy yourself, get some exercise, and other harmful stuff, then over time, ANYONE CAN GET SKIN CANCER!!!!!

Unless you do what the girl does, and avoid the sun and get around with a hat, sunglasses and long sleve shirt and of course pour on 15+ which is $30 a tube. Of course we don't see how she ends up, in ten years time, probably clinically depressed, with vitamin D deficient diseases, and seeing the doctor!


Biggest load of BS, l have ever heard!


This article, based on a ton of studies, (scroll down) pretty much shows how, fear based advertising, which doesn't address what a lack of sunshine does to you, is doing!


https://www.tasa.org.au/wp-content/u...Howie-Luke.pdf



These campaigns have been quite effective (Cancer Council Victoria, 2012), and perhaps have had unintended consequences. It is becoming increasingly evident that we are facing an epidemic of vitamin D deficiencies, with 30% of Australians reportedly lacking the required levels (Daly et al., 2012). Vitamin D is delivered via
sunlight and is essential for healthy ageing. It is estimated that 30-50% of Australians– and Saudi Arabians, Emarati, Turks, Indians and Lebanese – are vitamin D deficient
(Holick, 2007: 267). While inhabitants of these other countries cover-up for culturaland religious reasons, Australians presumably do soto protect themselves from the harsh dangers of the sun, having been subjected to
compelling campaigns thatencourage this behaviour for almost 30 years. Research into vitamin D deficiency suggests that the consequences are severe. Osteopor
osis, congestive heart failure,multiple sclerosis (Holick, 2004), some cancers (Garland et al., 2009) and depression (Berk et al., 2008) have all been linked with vitamin D deficiencies. Holick (2008:
1548) argues that increasing sun exposure actually reduces the risk of contracting certain cancers.
Funny zero mention of any of this!!!!!

Staying out of the sun is likely to be an effective
way of reducing the risk of developing skin cancer. Yet the Australian advertisements simplify the complexity of the problem. They lack information about the consequences of getting too little sun exposure. The graphic, visual aspects of these advertisements that show medical procedures and obituaries of young people who have perished because of their sun
exposure has the potential to create excessive fear of a disease that one is not likely to ever contract.


“incomplete, partial and selective”,

The last part pretty much wraps up what l have been saying for years. Medical Media, wraps up truth with lies, so people will stay clinically ill, and buy their s*** for the rest of their lives!

If this guy in the ad, (US residents let me know if you can't see it) was burning on a regular bases, then l would agree, but, (as far as l can tell he isn't) so they are saying, go out into the sun for any length, and you could die, horribly and leave your poor girlfriend to rear your child all by herself.

And most likely Slip, Slop, Slap, blah, the poor kid so much, he or she will get rickets, and depression, etc!

Society is going from F*** up to serious Nazi State F***up!


What is next? Being born is bad for your health!

Every day you live is adding up, and anyone can die from being alive, duh!


If l run into a gov, ACC rep, slapping would be the least of what l would do!

    Well, l went to their official site to see if any common sense prevailed there. And there is actually some intelligent info, over there!!!!

    Vitamin D deficiency - SunSmart

    Vitamin D deficiency causes bone and muscle pain, poor bone mineralisation (softer bones) leading to rickets (bone deformity) in children and osteomalacia in adults. The evidence is unequivocal – vitamin D is crucial for bone and muscle development and in the prevention of osteoporosis. There have also been links with an increased risk of bowel cancer, heart disease, infections and auto-immune diseases, although more research is needed to determine whether increasing vitamin D levels can prevent these conditions.
    People with little or no sun exposure including:
    So, they cover the risks of no sun, and then list who is at risk by limiting sun exposure!

    Eventhough the ad's, push, covering up every time you step out of the door, and getting a tan is bad!

    They also say that covering up, will still keep most Australians, Vitamin D levels up!

    Sure, l will trust an organization who doesn't put any of this on their ad's, (not even fine print)?


    The ad's should be at the very least say, in print somewhere, "that some sun exposure is beneficial for good health"!


    All of their campaigns since the 70's haven't covered this!

    And if covering up, etc, gives most Aussies enough vitamin D, then shouldn't that mean since it does provide enough vitamin D, then it must be slowing damaging the person as well?

    The ad, shown above is vague, and is pushing, any tan is bad, and excessively covering up for any sun exposure is good!

    How many people are going to put on expensive sunscreen, a hat sunglasses, find a tree, and a long sleeve shirt on a 35 digree day, to hang some clothing on the line!!!!

    I think that most will die from being stressed by all of this crap, than the sun!

    I will expect slurp, to be the next one, (have a drink), so we only need to Slip, Slop, Slap, Seek, Slip and Slurp, if we go outside for a few minutes! And suffer!

    Since a few minutes add's up and we will probably keel over in a few short years!


    F***ers!!!

    And this from the grassroots organization,....But substantiated by professionals.

    http://articles.mercola.com/sites/ar...st-cancer.aspx


    The best way to optimize your vitamin D level is through sun exposure or a safe tanning bed as that virtually eliminates any risk of overdose. As a very general guide, you need to expose about 40 percent of your entire body to the sun for approximately 20 minutes between the hours of 10 am and 2 pm, when the sun is at its zenith. There appears to be no risk of vitamin D toxicity from ultraviolet B exposure.
    It also goes on to say that breast cancer, can be reduced by 90% and so forth!


    The complete opposite of what the medical media or SunSmart say! They say cover up most of your body, and go out in the sun, for the whole day, and you will probably have enough exposure!

    Or unless you go to our site, you will end up sick enough to buy our s*** indefinitely!

    I do more than 40% for about half an hour, so l am in the 30% of Aussies who don't buy this crap!

    It is worth a read, this site is mainly about someone who got over Cancer, and her research into just how important vitamin D is!

    And how her, (and others research) is the opposite to the BS, we get!


    According to one large-scale study, optimal Vitamin D levels can slash your risk of cancer by as much as 60 percent. Keeping your levels optimized can help prevent at least 16 different types of cancer, including pancreatic, lung, ovarian, prostate, and skin cancers.
    Reduces Skin Cancers!!!! 40% of your body, at the times of the day we are supposed to avoid, for 20 minutes!!!! And no Slip, Slop,....yes, gov, BS at its finest!

    One thing about propaganda is that it goes on long after most people are savvy to it.

    1. I'm surprised the propaganda is so thick out there since it was an AU doctor that conducted the studies that prove it's not sunshine causing melanoma. Wish I could remember his name - you can probably google it up somewhere.

    2. The stuff that is put out to the public is NOT medical studies -- other than some info taken from studies that has been edited so wildly it no longer resembles the original study conclusions.

    3. If you go to the actual studies - pubmed -- you will find pages of studies of the benefits of both sunshine and Vit D for a lot of different afflictions, including cancer - so the info is there, it just doesn't make it into the public view.

    4. I'm not sure that there are all too many people still fooled by the sunscreen industry propaganda. Even most doctors no longer subscribe to it - yet they still warn against burning, and well should do so.

    5. Vitamin D deficiency is one of the major health issues in the US right now - probably thanks to the "be afraid of sunlight" BS. but then, a lot of people work the hours they could get sun, so that doesn't help anything. Anyway - I think the days of the sun scare are pretty well over and done other than a few doctor worshipers who are hanging on to it. It's gone about the same way that the butter is bad for you era went.

      No, l agree the number of times men should, well, you know, is based on a dodgy survey, and SunDum,...Sunsmart info, on their site is better than the ad, but still off the mark!

      It seems that Phar, company can create a Yes Minster type study and then pour millions into ad's for the herd to munch on!

      Yes, l am surprised and p*** about this new load of BS, it seems that 30% of Aussies aren't buying it, (including me) and are sporting a healthy tan, (l have noticed most wealthy looking individuals have a dark tan as well).

      Wealthy or successful people generally don't follow the herd!


      3. If you go to the actual studies - pubmed -- you will find pages of studies of the benefits of both sunshine and Vit D for a lot of different afflictions, including cancer - so the info is there, it just doesn't make it into the public view.
      Yes, the truth is there but it is buried.


      4. I'm not sure that there are all too many people still fooled by the sunscreen industry propaganda. Even most doctors no longer subscribe to it - yet they still warn against burning, and well should do so.
      Unfortunately about 70% of Aussies are on the fence or still believe this crap. My Mother, unfortunately still does, eventhough l have said many times, that the strongest Cancer fighting thing our bodies have is vitamin D from the sun!

      5. Vitamin D deficiency is one of the major health issues in the US right now - probably thanks to the "be afraid of sunlight" BS. but then, a lot of people work the hours they could get sun, so that doesn't help anything. Anyway - I think the days of the sun scare are pretty well over and done other than a few doctor worshipers who are hanging on to it.

      True, but they can still get a few minutes at lunch time?

      Well, unless they have to put on sunscreen, a hat, sunglasses, to walk outside, then l figure most will think screw that, l only have half an hour for lunch, so l will stay inside!

      In Au, they seem to be pushing this stuff harder and harder, maybe people are finally starting to get it, (that it is BS)? Let's hope so!

      But as they say, push lies, attract flies!


      And in the meantime that Sunsmart campaigns, steps are getting longer and longer, maybe by 2020, we will have to remember about 15 different steps so we can go outside?

      Maybe that is it, add so many steps that most will just stay inside? And vitamin D deficient illnesses will skyrocket!

      I am pretty disgusted with our gov, part in this BS. But l suppose they get their cut.

      Maybe someone should start running vitamin D deficient campaigns?

      At the very least all of those ad's on tv, showing people out in the sun enjoying a chicken picnic, with no hat, sunglasses, blah, need to be binned. After all they are advocating cancer and illness, well odd's on!

        I think you are trying to make yourself feel good about something deep down you may be worrying about. As you have talked in detail about this before


        "Sporting a healthy tan ? " That is an Oxymoron in itself. There is no such thing . Especially one that is a "dark tan"

        As there has been an enormous amount of medical information and case studies over many decades that show that NO amount of tanning is healthy.

        Tanning is damaged skin. It's as simple as that. Not saying it is going to turn into Cancer or Melanoma but people who are predisposed to the gene increase their chances of getting it with dark tanning or burns from being out in the sun.

        Of course getting out into the sun everyday is healthy and should be a priority, you just have to be smart about it and do it in moderation.

        Sun bathing out in the open for 2 hours a day, everyday is just plain unhealthy.

          I would have left this subject along if it wasn't for this new load of crap.

          Well, someone who is athletic and as white as a ghost isn't as attractive or healthy looking as someone else with a tan?

          As there has been an enormous amount of medical information and case studies over many decades that show that NO amount of tanning is healthy.
          And as l and others have shown there is plenty of information that shows that 20 minutes in peak times, is beneficial, (obviously that will produce a tan).

          I think that you need to read everything l have posted, vitamin D intake fights skin cancer, so apart from burning, it obviously isn't directly related to the sun!

          Getting out in the sun is healthy, but slip, slop, slapping isn't!

          But l agree that 2 hours daily is overdoing it, eventhough vitamin D intake can't be overdone.

          I never go out any more often than for half and hour every second day. It is too much to go out daily!

          .
          Um..........no. Actually there hasn't been. The only such studies you will find were actually paid for by the sunscreen industry. What there are - plenty of independent medical studies that say that sunshine is essential to good health.

          I know, that you agreed with me, but l want to talk some more about this...

          My body, isn't fighting to not go out at peak times, for a vitamin D intake, well, every day it would, or l would feel resistance.

          And we have been programmed to be attracted to tanned people!

          Whether that is because they go outside more, or have a higher vitamin D intake, hard to say, but probably both!

          So, no, little to no fear, about going out in the sun, when these F*** say to slop, and slap ourselves to death!

          Well, this and the track record of medical media, which is to the most part, either overdoes the food intake or exercise regime to p*** everyone off so much that most will give up!

          And go back to unhealthy and buy our s*** mode!

          This sunsmart, campaign, is adding more and more steps, (5 above, used to be 3) so more and more people will just stay inside and get sick!

          Similar BS for fruit intake, they recommend 4 a day, (if l had to force myself to eat 4 a day, (l have two now) then l would have packed it in and gone back to unhealthy breakfast food!

          Sal, if you have any US, "avoid the sun" ad's post it here?


          And l should also say that if what they say is true, that most Aussies who slip, and slap themselves, get enough sun for vitamin D, then why are 30 to 50% of us, vitamin D deficient?

          They have either stuffed up, or it is intentional to sell more s***.

          Considering they have run ad's like this since the 70's. selling s*** is more likely!
