When my husband had covid last summer I took him outside for sun dates. I would have him sit outside with me about 15ft away. For 15min. I also gave him vitamins with a full healthy breakfast. He ate really well. He had a full recovery. I did not get it due to very strict protocol. I quarantined him and he was only allowed in certain areas in the house and if he left his room he had to wear a mask. He was not allowed to help himself. I got him everything he needed and was a good nurse.
As far as having arthritis all this makes a difference. More pain is brought to us thru colder weather, temperature and barometric changes. That is why most elderly that can afford go south for the winter.
You should be on national T.V nightly along with Dr John Campbell giving out real COVID 19 data and suggestions how to improve a persons health. Keep up great work DR.
No, please stay away from John Campbell, I'm sick of his misrepresentations, the debunkings on him are epic. He's been really dishonest and few realise it
Yes, and Covid infection rate would drop like crazy! But unfortunately big pharmaceutical companies in cahoot with mainstream medias will not allow this to happen. I guessed it will have to spread by words of mouth.
@@myhealthobs5290 I agree. I would not characterize his presentations as misinformation, but much of it is influenced by folk approaches rather than medical approaches. I followed him for a couple weeks in 2020 but could not deal with his sloppy arguments and fascination with folk remedies.
Yes I am recovering from COVID just now and his channel is the one I’m watching daily to educate myself about how to improve any lingering effects of the infection! Thank you 🙏🏻
I love all MedCram posts and am very grateful for this one but it is a sad comment on how removed modern society has become from the basics. Now we need peer reviewed studies to tell us that being outside in the sun is good for you, that eating vegetables, avoiding too many animal products (and avoiding HFCS) keeps our bodies strong, that being in nature helps mental health, that sleep is good for one's immunity, and so on. We've forgotten what our grandparents used to know and now need expensive studies to believe that those nuggets of truth were actually valuable. Thank you MedCram for validating again things like saunas and heat therapy, some vitamins, and healthy living.
The issues is; big pharma has scared the hell out of everyone about skin cancer. So many refuse to step out without being slathered in sunscreen and clothes that block sunlight. Praying for those who have been scared into not getting a dose of natural light for at least 20 minutes with no sunscreen.
I'm a medical aesthetician and agree with that wholeheartedly. I've had to unlearn so much of what I was taught in school and re-educate my clients about this.
As covered in the video, you can still take the advice and cover up and still get infrared light. Be careful of making sweeping generalizations and accusations like this.
Latitude has always been known to be a factor in viral infection. Anyone living above 35 latitude in the Northern Hemisphere cannot get enough natural sunlight Vitamin D absorption because of the angle of the Sun between October - April This falls right in line with the Hope-Simpson Seasonality Curves. Patients who were put in outdoor tents to recover during the 1918 Spanish Flu outbreak had higher outcomes of survival than those who were recovering inside hospitals. Fresh air and Sunlight had a significant impact on survival. Not only light, Vitamin D absorption and fresh air but being outside boosts mood and lowers cortisol.
Yes, remember those days of riding your Bike , stopping at the park, Skating outside, hula hoop in the yard. And, I cut the lawn too and did gardening.
When I was ill last summer with Delta I almost craved sun and fresh air and was lucky enough to have a garden and nice weather so I pulled myself down out of bed to sit out. It certainly made me feel lifted, I put it down to fresh air back then.
In India we pray for The Sun God. Unfortunately the practice of sitting in Sun missed people attention. My father was Coma Hospital authorities asked us to take him Home . We brought Home applied Cow Ghee and exposed him to sunlight . He lived for 28 years later.
Northern-latitude resident here. If you're at the clinic for bloodwork, check with your care provider to see if they think your Vitamin D level should be checked as well. I had no idea my level was low, and was also instructed to take supplements year-round due to the long hours I'm working indoors.
Both medcram videos on the importance health mechanisms of sunlight (beyond vitD) for health and wellness are a WELCOME addition! Awesome to see a prominent dr of western medicine acknowledge, embrace and endorse a non-pharma approach to health and well being. 👍🏻 Great videos.
Good video. It is seems very reasonable to hypothesize that sunshine exposure would correlate with better outcomes for people with COVID-19. Two issues trouble me though. Video mark 3:46 JAMA study. This RCT looked at the effect of a single dose of Vitamin D3 on people already admitted to the hospital for moderate to severe COVID-19 infections. The conclusion, “The findings do not support the use of a high dose of vitamin D3 for treatment of moderate to severe COVID-19,” is accurate, however, it doesn’t answer the more clinically important question: Does previous supplementation of Vitamin D3 in levels sufficient to prevent Vitamin D insufficiency (21-29 mg/mL) and especially Vitamin D deficiency (20 ng/mL or lower) result in better outcomes for COVID-19 patients? The JAMA study’s conclusion is not surprising for the following reason: Oral Vitamin D3 (also known as cholecalciferol) takes a week or more to be transformed into the biologically active form of Vitamin D. If you’re already requiring hospitalization due to moderate to severe illness due from COVID-19 infection, you don’t use a treatment that takes a week or more to become therapeutic. Once you’re in the middle to later stages of COVID-19’s clinical course, it would be much better to choose a drug that’s biologically active and available within hours. To correct Vitamin D deficiency, a good drug to choose would be calcifediol. This has been studied too. It has demonstrated itself to be quite effective in producing better outcomes for hospitalized COVID-19 patients. The first study was published as: “Effect of calcifediol treatment and best available therapy versus best available therapy on intensive care unit admission and mortality among patients hospitalized for COVID-19: A pilot randomized clinical study.” (www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7456194/) Video mark 24:33: Specific mention of oral Vitamin D supplementation not being a substitute for sunshine. Perhaps this was a nuanced remark about RCT study design investigating the role of sunshine on COVID-19 outcomes; that oral Vitamin D should not replace sunshine exposure in the experimental studies. But the message came across was that oral Vitamin D should not be considered for further study in prevention of severe illness or treatment (not treatment with Vitamin D3, which takes a week or more to be transformed into the biologically active form of Vitamin D). Oral Vitamin D3 is available worldwide in all latitudes. I presume the rapidly therapeutic calcifediol could be made available worldwide as well. Sunshine however, is certainly not available worldwide all the time.
I've always thought this. Sit in the sun and "go fast". Gotta keep moving. Or do meth. Wow. Did I just say that?? When the sun hits your skin it heals you.
I think the point of the video is the proposal that sunlight has beneficial effects that are independent of Vit D -- Vit D production being stimulated by UV, whereas these separate effects on melatonin and mitochondrial ROS appear to be mediated by near IR. It's a mistake to interpret the video's message to be, "don't take Vit D." All they're saying is that for these specifically NIR-mediated responses, you need NIR, and vit D won't help in that regard.
I like that you finally looked at charts like this, during the high heat of summer cases go up as well because people stay inside air conditioned homes/shops and avoid going outside as well.
Fantastic presentation!! I guess I found out what my problem with lack of energy is.. I've always been super active in Brazil and in Germany I lack my energy. Why isn't this knowledge more widespread in the medical community?! Most Brazilians have this problem in Europe and the doctors just tell us to drink coffee, unbelievable. Nice to see how it's all interconnected and affects Covid outcome too. Great video!!
Great discussion as always. Would have been great if the doc could have researched indoor alternatives and included them. There are so many companies marketing IR and NIR indoor therapies these days (not to mention FIR). Dr. Michael Hamblin seems to be the authority on photobiomodulation, but that is not what we are talking about here although I assume NIR falls within the phitobiomodulation frequency spectrum as well. Personally I use the SaunaSpace product for my indoor dose of NIR and then I use a Clearlight single person dome FIR sauna which has a large amount of ceramic content in the carbon panels. This is supposed to broaden the frequency emissions and may encroach on the NIR frequencies as well. I generally do a red light session (Sauna Space) before standing in front of a UV tanning panel which I got before the FDA prevented Mercola from selling them. Before starting any of these “light therapies” I always take a combined dose of chlorella and astaxanthin for their strong association with photosynthesis in nature. Granted my winter routine does not translate easily to a broad public health suggestion. Getting “out in the sun” is the obviously the most palatable and simple fail safe suggestion for the masses. But in the pacific northwest where winters can be gray and rainy for weeks and where the odd sunny day my not correlate with a day off, not to speak of snow storms and dangerous icy side walks, indoor advice would be helpful. Besides, once sick with COVID, I doubt most would want to get out and brave freezing temperatures, hoping that a little NIR will penetrate their parka, covered face and snow boots.
Glad you talked about other therapies. I tried to mention responsible tanning ala Dr Holick but I’m sure it’s silenced because no one can support this due to the ADA. Oh well, these are the times we live in. Also Dr Mercola also had a tanning bed for exactly this use and was sued for millions. C’est damage.
your data supports my own experience-that's why I'm here-I find your illustrations and your discussion very easy to understand-more people need to hear you-I have done my part in sharing-thank u
Absolutely the best health information !!! I live in Florida and when I had covid I went outside during solar noon to sunbathe with fever 38C, it felt very warm and penetrating heat and slight burning effect, it was different than my regular sunbathing.To make the story short, I did 15 min each side and I heated my body even higher temperature over my fever about 39.8C, than I went indoor to conditioned space to relax.With this routine I was able to cope that covid much better and with less fatique and got well sooner, because using the sun's heat I saved energy which body was going to produce to create fever ! I love sunlight and there is much more than just vit D3, Nitric Oxide boost and cellular Melatonin production ! Thank you Roger for sharing your insighrts !
Thank you for sharing your experience. What you did is exactly what I would recommend doing as well although you have to be careful not to get too dehydrated.
It would seem that the body naturally heats up in order to fight off the invading malefic organisms, hence the fever. Thus heating up the body (blood) in the hot sun could indeed have the effect of lending the body a helping hand in desroying the said organisms. Just a layman's guess... 😊
Dr. Seheult, I am a chemist and studied Near-IR spectroscopy in my doctorate work. I'm fascinated by this idea of Near-IR radiation as therapy, and am looking for the source papers which describe stimulation of melatonin production by Near-IR radiation. Everything seems plausible, but the mechanism of exactly how Near-IR radiation can stimulate production of a chemical substance is the weak link in my mind. Near-IR radiation can excite multiple molecular vibrations, but generally not considered to be energetic enough to induce chemical reactions. But if true, this can be revolutionary!
Excellent-I have passed on to my mother who is elderly and my daughter who is working hard in her final school years so she can go to university to become a doctor and all my friends because as you said everyone should know about this-thank you so much for putting all this research together for us
I use an IR lamp for years now, for heat and for skin. It helps a lot with inflammation and I have experienced similar results withs unlight but more so during the sunrise/sunset when there's a ton more NIR light coming from space. Thank you for the video! Btw... I haven't recently seen a video on NAC. Do you think you could update on the science behind NAC/COVID-19? Thank in advance!
I have seen another video on YT, that promotes the use of NAC taken in the evening. I don't remember the details, but many of the molecules mentioned here are also mentioned in that video.
I've started going outdoor now and enjoy the sunlight in the morning right at our community basketball court. Thank you for the great video you've made. God bless.
Thank you. Most people (even physicians) don't seem to realize how important sunlight is. I figured it out the hard way; when I moved from Texas to Alaska and got "health issues" for the first time in life. Pains and other problems went away when I got sun (when I could), ate lots of Salmon (fish oil), and started regularly taking Vitamin D3 and Magnesium. *Not getting enough Vitamin D can literally make you feel like you were kicked in the hip by a horse!* (not kidding, I've done both).
An RCT using NIR lamps would be better for determining the causal benefits of NIR. The ability to get the benefits of NIR without the risks of UV would be good, as well as the ability for people who are required to be inside during the sunlight hours for work to get the benefits
I believe it was on the Dark Horse podcast, where a researcher noted that giving a bolus dose of Vitamin D is a bad idea and can actually lead to lower Vitamin D levels later on...as the body basically tries to calm the surge of Vitamin D by ramping up anti-D enzymes (forgive my lack of technical terms) and that doing large doses can actually be deleterious...this would explain why those C19 studies that rammed large doses of Vitamin D down ppl when they were admitted did worse or little improvement. Moral of the story, get daily Vitamin D at levels you need to maintain a healthy level over time.
I take large doses for a bone condition and this is exactly what my concern is. We used to say the same about iron, iron drops during bacterial infections, so people supplimented with it, bad idea, iron feeds bacterial growth.
Darkhorse is the equivalent of the National Enquirer IMO. I don't know about you, but I have no use for sensationalism. The essential problem is that sensationalism tries to convince us that solid science is wrong and their bizarre idea is right.
Hospitals and homes in Colorado Springs used to all have solariums, treated tb. I also agree with true darkness after sundown. Humans are solar powered.
I added a 7 watt LED grow lamp in my overhead lighting a couple of weeks ago. I have been sleeping better since. Thanks for discussing this in your usual detail.
I would also like to add that the spectrum of light should be altered depending on the biological clock determined by the individuals natural requirements
Has there been any research on artificial light stimulation? I hear that people in Alaska rely on those sources of light during their winter months of complete darkness as a sunlight substitution source.
Dr. S. I listened to a doctor in Florida who studies the ace 2 receptor and found that certain antihistamines, he named diphenhydramine (benadryl) had a reduction of sarscov 2 virus in vitro. If you added lactoferrin (found in milk and highest in colostrum) to the diphenhydamine he could get are very high 98 percent?? Neutrilization of the virus. Have you heard of any studies ongoing about this? Thanks 🇨🇦
Yes, I read about this too and purchased several colostrum brands and I have been taking it for several weeks and it has made me feel better in every way. I'm a 53 year old mom, so I have my fair share of aches and pains. I really thought the idea of colostrum was weird but now I feel how wonderful it is. I also purchase a big bottle of benedryl just in case. I'm not vaxxed and never had covid. I spend a lot of time outside, eat healthy and take a reasonable amount of vitamins, including omega 3. I think what you mentioned here might also offset possible dangerous vaccine side effects.
Very impressed in your propensity to synthesize mechanisms from published new knowledge and existing knowledge. I hope the research community is also paying attention. Edit. I note that the Romans were famously keen on hot baths in cold climates like the UK.
If this is true why South American countries are in the Southern hemisphere Brazil, Mexico Colombia in the equator and they were the hardest hit in corona virus
Thank you for the ton of sensible information you shared to make my family healthy! And it's very doable and inexpensive..." Go out into the light and warmth of the glorious sun!"
Dr. Seheault - Love your lectures on these little known studies. You just never get this information from major news outlets. From the start of the pandemic I have been following cases by state, country etc. and the variability is amazing. It seems like altitude does have quite an impact. Fascinating! Thank you.
I work graveyard shift so I don’t get a lot of sunlight and when I was sick with Covid a few weeks ago I starting taking vitamin D3 Zinc and Magnesium and it helps a lot especially when you have long term Covid symptoms.
It is a hard lesson when you live on the West Coast of British Columbia. Normally we travel to Palm Springs around this time of year and sun bath as the general goal of going there.
what about infrared sauna? this channel talked about the benefit of sauna in the past, though it was prob steam sauna. can infrared sauna help bridging the gap?
The single dose 200K IU study was basically designed to fail and be an argument against vitD supplementation (IMO). Curious was the mortality rate is in Nordic countries where many more foods are vitamin D fortified compared to similarly northern areas of the US (or other areas without increased vitamin D fortification.
So what is the saturation limit for ir? We know that too much exposure ages the skin, so what is the best effective dose for generating melatonin, and is there a difference between melatonin in the blood vs intracellular? Some of those red light therapy devices recommend 10 minutes of exposure, but I don't know how they arrived at this figure.
Most sites claim NIR light isn't absorbed through clothing -- are there studies that show this is not the case? What about cloudy days? Would love to know the answers to these questions for practical application...
We've greatly enjoyed your videos for the past couple of years. Like I said back then, your videos make medicine very interesting to us (electrical engineers / mathematicians) ... the whole topic of medicine is fascinating ... makes us want to find ways to make useful products for medicine. The historical aspect of IR treatment is really interesting.
Wonderful video, maybe even better than the longer one. Well no, both are equally good, each giving exciting new information. Thank you so much. I've berm assiduously taking a walk soon after 11am here in tropical Goa with its blazing sun, for the vitamin D. (Not very long but still.) I wish this video had come out sooner so I would have stocked up on the protective infra red earlier or later in the day. Well better late than never. These videos should be watched by everyone, kudos for making them. Best wishes.
Great video, one which everybody should watch. However several clinical trials have confirmed that oral melatonin when added to the conventional therapy significantly reduces the mortality of the severe COVID-19 patients. DYOR
Doctor, what would you say to those of us that were told to stay away from sunlight (direct or indirect) after a life of exposure, extensive sun damage and cancerous lesions?
You could check this video Dr. Berg has for cancer. It's not necessarily the lesions from the sun exposure but you can search his channel on that subject. th-cam.com/video/hlkhGTGOGaY/w-d-xo.html&feature=share
The sun is also for rich people that live better lives, do less in life, counting money on a sunny day, drive open top cars, the more selfish you are the longer you live. 🤔😀👍
My dermatologist was direct about it after removing the first squamous carcinoma from my right forearm: use sunscreen; take vitamin D supplements. He removed a second one nearby a few months later and no more since.
In my youth in the UK there were many TB hospitals, small units in the countryside where patients were kept outside in the sunshine. All these units were closed and a retrograde step was made to massive do all hospitals. Another factor was the fear generated over skin cancer. Strange fact if you look at the countries with the lowest Vit D levels it is in countries with high levels of sunshine, with Pakistan number 1.
Infra red Iight therapy I truly believe saved me from a poor outcome with C19. It was fairly dramatic and at the time I associated it with a very quick turnaround but didn't fully know why until now watching this video. When he said it can make a difference in minutes he wasn't kidding. I'm living proof
As covid continues, more and more are suffering from long covid, and those/us hit by fatigue are identified as part of two major ssymptoms groups, those with body fatigue and brain fatigue and many have both. What should we do regarding using the sun to our advantage and are the other such things that can reduce our recovery period? I would really be helpful with such a video, as the infra red was new to me. But now I have questions if I here in Denmark in late August should get sun between 10 and 14 or avoid it, and also if there are other advice that can improve my condition?
Thank you very much, Prof. Seheult. Your videos on topics of COVID-19 have always brought sunshine to my worry-struck and fear-clouded mind. From the stage of zero idea about COVID-19 (what it is, how to deal with it, availability of treatment, perception about the vaccines etc…), your videos have equipped myself (believe also true to many viewers here) with clear picture and knowledge about this virus, in a way helping me to knock down the anxiety, stress and fear about this pandemic. This is the true idea of “empowerment” by sharing and communicating the knowledge and truth about it. Really love your show of the journals reviewed and those lovely diagrams about the mechanism of natural sunlight and the anatomical view of the virus. Thank you so much again!
The paper referred to just before the 4 minute mark tests "a single dose" (a large dose) but finds no impact. But did they look at actual blood levels after the single dose?
I caught Covid from my husband. I recovered quickly. I take Vitamin D and keep my Vitamin D levels around 45. My husband's Vitamin D level is around 10. 4 weeks later he still has symptoms. Vitamin D has something to do with long term Covid.
Is that why when we were little kids we could lay out in the sun and listen to our dads worked on the vehicles or whatever we would get tired... over melatonin. The sun rays and safety of dad...
This is pure dedication, hard work, and excellence. I enjoyed every part of it. Despite still preparing for the MCAT, You always make me to see the importance of my career goals and also motivates me to study twice harder whenever I watch your videos. God bless you Dr Roger S. and the Medcram team. Thanks Thanks Thanks 🙏
Thank you for the time you took to do this, much appreciated, and will be appreciated by all someday. If the people at the top were as kind and considerate as yourself we'd be already out of this situation long ago, but because of that they're not likely to run such a study as you propose toward the end due to there being no profit motive of their particular liking :(
It would be interesting to overlap a graph of flu vaccination rates with the infection rate during the same time period. Same with the covid rates/vaccinations.
How do you the know sunlight per se is the cause for improvement, or the fact that people who spend more time outside get more exercise, or physical activity which makes them less susceptible to illness, rather than sunlight. Also, what about rickets. Light improved it, but when vit d was disconvendré it was thought that the light just induced vit d. Thereafter rickets was successfully treat with vit. D.
The problem here is trying to sit outside in the sun in the winter at 32° or less is crazy! Vit D3 is our best bet until it warms up! So I have boosted my D3 to 5000 or 10,000 a day plus zinc, k2 and vit C, also adding vit E and cod liver oil as well as eating more fish. Trying to bundle up for the sun outside at 32 degrees or less is crazy!
I live in a 4 season state! I sit in my sliding glass door windows! Or you could get in your car and park in the sun for 15 to 40 mins! There are ways to get sun exposure even in the winter! Just have to think outside of the box! Be Blessed!
In lieu of having access to the sun under optimal conditions, can beneficial infrared wavelengths be duplicated through a heat source like an electric blanket/heat pad/light or hot baths and showers? I recall in a previous video how saunas could be helpful in the immune responses for Covid. Is that part of the same infrared principle? I understand how the eye is a part of these principles, so there are no simple answers. Thank you.
We note that these are the seven (7) component parts that make up our body's "IMMUNE SYSTEM": (1)white blood cells, (2)antibodies, (3)complement system, (4)lymphatic system, (5)spleen, (6)bone marrow and (7)thymus Dr. Seheult, can you at some appropriate time/opportunity, please explain how we could/should optimize the functions of the above subsets and so boost our body's ability to resist and fight infections? Simple ask. Additionally, are there medical standards (values) that define the optimum functional level/s of each component part? Which subset is critical to the body's ability to resist the effect of SARS-CoV-2 Virus/Variants on the body? Should the skin be included in the above list?
Do you have any updates for your recommended amounts for supplementation to achieve the plasma concentrations mentioned here for high latitude folks (like Canadians)?
Absolutely fabulous information. You need to make 3 min digest videos for people to share that link back to the full explanation. Too many people dont have the attention span to watch this.
Great video and information as usual, I am glad that you adedded the 18th century information, as "old" treatments tend to be overlooked by modern science, there was wisdom in the past as well, thank you.
If we get studies done then we need to make Solariums a Must by law in building development and design anywhere! Homes, offices, break rooms, hospitals..
Guys, I did it. I started working as a carpenter with people I'm friends with and it has changed my life. I'm learning new stuff, I wake up every day at 7:30 and go to bed around 11pm. Even though it's not a high paid job, (because I'm still learning the trade) I'm happy. Going to work is not a hassle anymore 🤩
This was such a practical video to have. More people need to see this. I sent it to everyone I could. Thank you for this & im looking forward to many more of your great teaching’s.
How do you know that it is not sunlight from being outside, but rather physical activity from being out and about, is the thing that helps improve health. Also, light cured children with rickets. But when vit d was discovered it was reasoned that the light induced vit d, and thereafter children were successfully treated with vit d.
Thinking about the NorbSMILE light bulbs. Do any of you have recommendations? I have actually torn exterior and interior walls out of my house and added french doors to get more light in the winter. I even added a sunroom.
When my husband had covid last summer I took him outside for sun dates. I would have him sit outside with me about 15ft away. For 15min. I also gave him vitamins with a full healthy breakfast. He ate really well. He had a full recovery. I did not get it due to very strict protocol. I quarantined him and he was only allowed in certain areas in the house and if he left his room he had to wear a mask. He was not allowed to help himself. I got him everything he needed and was a good nurse.
Edit How long was his long COVID?
Sounds great.
The nice thing about being outside is the air tends to blow your breath away pretty quick.

As far as having arthritis all this makes a difference. More pain is brought to us thru colder weather, temperature and barometric changes. That is why most elderly that can afford go south for the winter.
NAC is an amino acid. We produce it in our body. Its considered as a supplement. Get from health store or from pharmacies in other countries.

In Europe they'd give you a paid vacation to the Mediterranean, if you're stressed out. Here, you get sick, you get no vacation, you get fired.
OK, I'll go for a walk outside -- right after I watch another MedCram video!

Sunscreen does not block Infared light.
Infrared light during sunrise provides natural sunscreen for high UV.

I wonder if an IR sauna is better for people in higher latitudes than the traditional sauna.
@@bspenn Most likely yes
SCIENCE!! LMAO
I live at 34 degrees south and 2400 feet altitude. The feeling you get from spending all day in the sun is wonderful.
Sunlight is always legit! That's why our parents always kicked us out of the house to go play in it.
Yes, remember those days of riding your Bike , stopping at the park, Skating outside, hula hoop in the yard. And, I cut the lawn too and did gardening.
Good stuff. My doc measured vit D levels and his patients that didn’t survive averaged 15 and his hospitalized patients averaged 25 ng/ml
Wow I love the sun. I was born and raised in Hawaii and I was always outside at the beach or always outside in the sun.
What an episode! It's amazing that this was recommended in episodes from 2 years ago.
When I was ill last summer with Delta I almost craved sun and fresh air and was lucky enough to have a garden and nice weather so I pulled myself down out of bed to sit out. It certainly made me feel lifted, I put it down to fresh air back then.
Wondering if the warm cat on my lap is being more than emotionally beneficial
In India we pray for The Sun God. Unfortunately the practice of sitting in Sun missed people attention.
My father was Coma Hospital authorities asked us to take him Home . We brought Home applied Cow Ghee and exposed him to sunlight . He lived for 28 years later.
Is there anything you people don’t worship besides the creator himself?
Northern-latitude resident here. If you're at the clinic for bloodwork, check with your care provider to see if they think your Vitamin D level should be checked as well. I had no idea my level was low, and was also instructed to take supplements year-round due to the long hours I'm working indoors.

Good video. It is seems very reasonable to hypothesize that sunshine exposure would correlate with better outcomes for people with COVID-19. Two issues trouble me though.
Video mark 3:46 JAMA study. This RCT looked at the effect of a single dose of Vitamin D3 on people already admitted to the hospital for moderate to severe COVID-19 infections. The conclusion, “The findings do not support the use of a high dose of vitamin D3 for treatment of moderate to severe COVID-19,” is accurate, however, it doesn’t answer the more clinically important question: Does previous supplementation of Vitamin D3 in levels sufficient to prevent Vitamin D insufficiency (21-29 mg/mL) and especially Vitamin D deficiency (20 ng/mL or lower) result in better outcomes for COVID-19 patients?
The JAMA study’s conclusion is not surprising for the following reason: Oral Vitamin D3 (also known as cholecalciferol) takes a week or more to be transformed into the biologically active form of Vitamin D. If you’re already requiring hospitalization due to moderate to severe illness due from COVID-19 infection, you don’t use a treatment that takes a week or more to become therapeutic.
Once you’re in the middle to later stages of COVID-19’s clinical course, it would be much better to choose a drug that’s biologically active and available within hours. To correct Vitamin D deficiency, a good drug to choose would be calcifediol. This has been studied too. It has demonstrated itself to be quite effective in producing better outcomes for hospitalized COVID-19 patients. The first study was published as: “Effect of calcifediol treatment and best available therapy versus best available therapy on intensive care unit admission and mortality among patients hospitalized for COVID-19: A pilot randomized clinical study.” (www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7456194/)
Video mark 24:33: Specific mention of oral Vitamin D supplementation not being a substitute for sunshine. Perhaps this was a nuanced remark about RCT study design investigating the role of sunshine on COVID-19 outcomes; that oral Vitamin D should not replace sunshine exposure in the experimental studies. But the message came across was that oral Vitamin D should not be considered for further study in prevention of severe illness or treatment (not treatment with Vitamin D3, which takes a week or more to be transformed into the biologically active form of Vitamin D). Oral Vitamin D3 is available worldwide in all latitudes. I presume the rapidly therapeutic calcifediol could be made available worldwide as well. Sunshine however, is certainly not available worldwide all the time.
I've got Covid now. The way I'm dealing in getting in the sun 15 minutes no more.
I've always thought this. Sit in the sun and "go fast". Gotta keep moving. Or do meth. Wow. Did I just say that?? When the sun hits your skin it heals you.
I think the point of the video is the proposal that sunlight has beneficial effects that are independent of Vit D -- Vit D production being stimulated by UV, whereas these separate effects on melatonin and mitochondrial ROS appear to be mediated by near IR. It's a mistake to interpret the video's message to be, "don't take Vit D." All they're saying is that for these specifically NIR-mediated responses, you need NIR, and vit D won't help in that regard.

I like that you finally looked at charts like this, during the high heat of summer cases go up as well because people stay inside air conditioned homes/shops and avoid going outside as well.
Fantastic presentation!! I guess I found out what my problem with lack of energy is.. I've always been super active in Brazil and in Germany I lack my energy. Why isn't this knowledge more widespread in the medical community?! Most Brazilians have this problem in Europe and the doctors just tell us to drink coffee, unbelievable. Nice to see how it's all interconnected and affects Covid outcome too. Great video!!
I mean coffee always - just drink it outside :)
This is a fantastic video, and as stated, it should be seen by everyone!
I fully agree with you.
Outstanding presentation! This should be put onto PSAs all over the World!
Great discussion as always. Would have been great if the doc could have researched indoor alternatives and included them. There are so many companies marketing IR and NIR indoor therapies these days (not to mention FIR). Dr. Michael Hamblin seems to be the authority on photobiomodulation, but that is not what we are talking about here although I assume NIR falls within the phitobiomodulation frequency spectrum as well. Personally I use the SaunaSpace product for my indoor dose of NIR and then I use a Clearlight single person dome FIR sauna which has a large amount of ceramic content in the carbon panels. This is supposed to broaden the frequency emissions and may encroach on the NIR frequencies as well. I generally do a red light session (Sauna Space) before standing in front of a UV tanning panel which I got before the FDA prevented Mercola from selling them. Before starting any of these “light therapies” I always take a combined dose of chlorella and astaxanthin for their strong association with photosynthesis in nature. Granted my winter routine does not translate easily to a broad public health suggestion. Getting “out in the sun” is the obviously the most palatable and simple fail safe suggestion for the masses. But in the pacific northwest where winters can be gray and rainy for weeks and where the odd sunny day my not correlate with a day off, not to speak of snow storms and dangerous icy side walks, indoor advice would be helpful. Besides, once sick with COVID, I doubt most would want to get out and brave freezing temperatures, hoping that a little NIR will penetrate their parka, covered face and snow boots.
Glad you talked about other therapies. I tried to mention responsible tanning ala Dr Holick but I’m sure it’s silenced because no one can support this due to the ADA. Oh well, these are the times we live in. Also Dr Mercola also had a tanning bed for exactly this use and was sued for millions. C’est damage.
There are great green houses available today. Won't work for all but for many they could be life savors.
your data supports my own experience-that's why I'm here-I find your illustrations and your discussion very easy to understand-more people need to hear you-I have done my part in sharing-thank u
Absolutely the best health information !!! I live in Florida and when I had covid I went outside during solar noon to sunbathe with fever 38C, it felt very warm and penetrating heat and slight burning effect, it was different than my regular sunbathing.To make the story short, I did 15 min each side and I heated my body even higher temperature over my fever about 39.8C, than I went indoor to conditioned space to relax.With this routine I was able to cope that covid much better and with less fatique and got well sooner, because using the sun's heat I saved energy which body was going to produce to create fever ! I love sunlight and there is much more than just vit D3, Nitric Oxide boost and cellular Melatonin production ! Thank you Roger for sharing your insighrts !
Thank you for sharing your experience. What you did is exactly what I would recommend doing as well although you have to be careful not to get too dehydrated.
It would seem that the body naturally heats up in order to fight off the invading malefic organisms, hence the fever. Thus heating up the body (blood) in the hot sun could indeed have the effect of lending the body a helping hand in desroying the said organisms.
Just a layman's guess... 😊
My great-grandfather was advised to go to Arizona for the sun when he contracted tuberculosis.
Dr. Seheult, I am a chemist and studied Near-IR spectroscopy in my doctorate work. I'm fascinated by this idea of Near-IR radiation as therapy, and am looking for the source papers which describe stimulation of melatonin production by Near-IR radiation. Everything seems plausible, but the mechanism of exactly how Near-IR radiation can stimulate production of a chemical substance is the weak link in my mind. Near-IR radiation can excite multiple molecular vibrations, but generally not considered to be energetic enough to induce chemical reactions. But if true, this can be revolutionary!
Excellent-I have passed on to my mother who is elderly and my daughter who is working hard in her final school years so she can go to university to become a doctor and all my friends because as you said everyone should know about this-thank you so much for putting all this research together for us
I use an IR lamp for years now, for heat and for skin. It helps a lot with inflammation and I have experienced similar results withs unlight but more so during the sunrise/sunset when there's a ton more NIR light coming from space. Thank you for the video! Btw... I haven't recently seen a video on NAC. Do you think you could update on the science behind NAC/COVID-19? Thank in advance!
I have seen another video on YT, that promotes the use of NAC taken in the evening. I don't remember the details, but many of the molecules mentioned here are also mentioned in that video.
I marginally tried that. I didn't seem to notice much. I did, however, once smell burning hair - yes, too close, too long 😲
Are they selling that on amazon???
What's NAC?

Chicago shut down its lakefront and parks when Covid started. Way to go.
I've started going outdoor now and enjoy the sunlight in the morning right at our community basketball court. Thank you for the great video you've made. God bless.
Thank you. Most people (even physicians) don't seem to realize how important sunlight is. I figured it out the hard way; when I moved from Texas to Alaska and got "health issues" for the first time in life. Pains and other problems went away when I got sun (when I could), ate lots of Salmon (fish oil), and started regularly taking Vitamin D3 and Magnesium. *Not getting enough Vitamin D can literally make you feel like you were kicked in the hip by a horse!* (not kidding, I've done both).
Thank you for commenting. It helps when people can hear from individuals that have gone through this.
An RCT using NIR lamps would be better for determining the causal benefits of NIR. The ability to get the benefits of NIR without the risks of UV would be good, as well as the ability for people who are required to be inside during the sunlight hours for work to get the benefits
Here it is: th-cam.com/video/ZdiUnmpOgqE/w-d-xo.html
I believe it was on the Dark Horse podcast, where a researcher noted that giving a bolus dose of Vitamin D is a bad idea and can actually lead to lower Vitamin D levels later on...as the body basically tries to calm the surge of Vitamin D by ramping up anti-D enzymes (forgive my lack of technical terms) and that doing large doses can actually be deleterious...this would explain why those C19 studies that rammed large doses of Vitamin D down ppl when they were admitted did worse or little improvement. Moral of the story, get daily Vitamin D at levels you need to maintain a healthy level over time.
I take large doses for a bone condition and this is exactly what my concern is. We used to say the same about iron, iron drops during bacterial infections, so people supplimented with it, bad idea, iron feeds bacterial growth.
Can you remember the title or provide a link?
Darkhorse is the equivalent of the National Enquirer IMO. I don't know about you, but I have no use for sensationalism. The essential problem is that sensationalism tries to convince us that solid science is wrong and their bizarre idea is right.
Hospitals and homes in Colorado Springs used to all have solariums, treated tb. I also agree with true darkness after sundown. Humans are solar powered.
I added a 7 watt LED grow lamp in my overhead lighting a couple of weeks ago. I have been sleeping better since. Thanks for discussing this in your usual detail.
I would also like to add that the spectrum of light should be altered depending on the biological clock determined by the individuals natural requirements
Has there been any research on artificial light stimulation? I hear that people in Alaska rely on those sources of light during their winter months of complete darkness as a sunlight substitution source.
Dr. S. I listened to a doctor in Florida who studies the ace 2 receptor and found that certain antihistamines, he named diphenhydramine (benadryl) had a reduction of sarscov 2 virus in vitro. If you added lactoferrin (found in milk and highest in colostrum) to the diphenhydamine he could get are very high 98 percent?? Neutrilization of the virus. Have you heard of any studies ongoing about this? Thanks 🇨🇦
Yes,I've seen that study too. Very interesting.
Yes, I heard that and began taking those when Omicron hit.
Yes, I read about this too and purchased several colostrum brands and I have been taking it for several weeks and it has made me feel better in every way. I'm a 53 year old mom, so I have my fair share of aches and pains. I really thought the idea of colostrum was weird but now I feel how wonderful it is. I also purchase a big bottle of benedryl just in case. I'm not vaxxed and never had covid. I spend a lot of time outside, eat healthy and take a reasonable amount of vitamins, including omega 3. I think what you mentioned here might also offset possible dangerous vaccine side effects.
would love to listen to this myself deborah. can you send link?
Just now, with Covid, I purposely sat in the sun 15 minutes and my lungs feel better
Very impressed in your propensity to synthesize mechanisms from published new knowledge and existing knowledge. I hope the research community is also paying attention. Edit. I note that the Romans were famously keen on hot baths in cold climates like the UK.
If this is true why South American countries are in the Southern hemisphere Brazil, Mexico Colombia in the equator and they were the hardest hit in corona virus
Thank you for the ton of sensible information you shared to make my family healthy! And it's very doable and inexpensive..." Go out into the light and warmth of the glorious sun!"
Dr. Seheault - Love your lectures on these little known studies. You just never get this information from major news outlets. From the start of the pandemic I have been following cases by state, country etc. and the variability is amazing. It seems like altitude does have quite an impact. Fascinating! Thank you.
I work graveyard shift so I don’t get a lot of sunlight and when I was sick with Covid a few weeks ago I starting taking vitamin D3 Zinc and Magnesium and it helps a lot especially when you have long term Covid symptoms.
Love the direction you are going with these videos and health!
It is a hard lesson when you live on the West Coast of British Columbia. Normally we travel to Palm Springs around this time of year and sun bath as the general goal of going there.
i appreciate you guys making a shorter version of the 2hr long video :)
Complicated, for my pea brain, but it comes down to getting up with the chickens, getting some sun, and going to bed at sun down...
what about infrared sauna? this channel talked about the benefit of sauna in the past, though it was prob steam sauna. can infrared sauna help bridging the gap?
Dr Seheult mentions infrared sauna as an alternative in his longer video, Sunlight as Medicine.
The single dose 200K IU study was basically designed to fail and be an argument against vitD supplementation (IMO). Curious was the mortality rate is in Nordic countries where many more foods are vitamin D fortified compared to similarly northern areas of the US (or other areas without increased vitamin D fortification.
So what is the saturation limit for ir? We know that too much exposure ages the skin, so what is the best effective dose for generating melatonin, and is there a difference between melatonin in the blood vs intracellular?
Some of those red light therapy devices recommend 10 minutes of exposure, but I don't know how they arrived at this figure.
Why aren’t people in southern states having better outcomes if sunlight lowers covid effects?
The sun just feels good.....your body is telling you it likes it. Jaime
Is NIR light exposure specifically required for retinal health? Some say they've stuck with incandescent bulbs for this reason.
Most sites claim NIR light isn't absorbed through clothing -- are there studies that show this is not the case? What about cloudy days? Would love to know the answers to these questions for practical application...
We've greatly enjoyed your videos for the past couple of years. Like I said back then, your videos make medicine very interesting to us (electrical engineers / mathematicians) ... the whole topic of medicine is fascinating ... makes us want to find ways to make useful products for medicine. The historical aspect of IR treatment is really interesting.
Yes, please focus on products. Best to you.
Vitamin D, Vitamin C, Zinc, all help fight off respiratory diseases.
Wonderful video, maybe even better than the longer one. Well no, both are equally good, each giving exciting new information. Thank you so much. I've berm assiduously taking a walk soon after 11am here in tropical Goa with its blazing sun, for the vitamin D. (Not very long but still.) I wish this video had come out sooner so I would have stocked up on the protective infra red earlier or later in the day. Well better late than never. These videos should be watched by everyone, kudos for making them. Best wishes.
Great video, one which everybody should watch. However several clinical trials have confirmed that oral melatonin when added to the conventional therapy significantly reduces the mortality of the severe COVID-19 patients. DYOR
Doctor, what would you say to those of us that were told to stay away from sunlight (direct or indirect) after a life of exposure, extensive sun damage and cancerous lesions?
You could check this video Dr. Berg has for cancer. It's not necessarily the lesions from the sun exposure but you can search his channel on that subject.
th-cam.com/video/hlkhGTGOGaY/w-d-xo.html&feature=share
The sun is also for rich people that live better lives, do less in life, counting money on a sunny day, drive open top cars, the more selfish you are the longer you live. 🤔😀👍
My dermatologist was direct about it after removing the first squamous carcinoma from my right forearm: use sunscreen; take vitamin D supplements. He removed a second one nearby a few months later and no more since.
5:09 While it’s true that NIR penetrates more deeply than FIR, the latter has a much higher absorption rate (up to 2.5 inches)
So what is the minimum time that we should spend our time outside in the sun to get enough melatonin?
In my youth in the UK there were many TB hospitals, small units in the countryside where patients were kept outside in the sunshine. All these units were closed and a retrograde step was made to massive do all hospitals. Another factor was the fear generated over skin cancer. Strange fact if you look at the countries with the lowest Vit D levels it is in countries with high levels of sunshine, with Pakistan number 1.
Same case for those that were hospitalized outside due to no space in the hospital and field hospitals in the Spanish flu.
Infra red Iight therapy I truly believe saved me from a poor outcome with C19. It was fairly dramatic and at the time I associated it with a very quick turnaround but didn't fully know why until now watching this video. When he said it can make a difference in minutes he wasn't kidding. I'm living proof
As covid continues, more and more are suffering from long covid, and those/us hit by fatigue are identified as part of two major ssymptoms groups, those with body fatigue and brain fatigue and many have both. What should we do regarding using the sun to our advantage and are the other such things that can reduce our recovery period? I would really be helpful with such a video, as the infra red was new to me. But now I have questions if I here in Denmark in late August should get sun between 10 and 14 or avoid it, and also if there are other advice that can improve my condition?
Dr. Sehreult , would you make a video commenting on the freedom of information reports in the UK? Thanks
Thank you very much, Prof. Seheult. Your videos on topics of COVID-19 have always brought sunshine to my worry-struck and fear-clouded mind. From the stage of zero idea about COVID-19 (what it is, how to deal with it, availability of treatment, perception about the vaccines etc…), your videos have equipped myself (believe also true to many viewers here) with clear picture and knowledge about this virus, in a way helping me to knock down the anxiety, stress and fear about this pandemic. This is the true idea of “empowerment” by sharing and communicating the knowledge and truth about it.
Really love your show of the journals reviewed and those lovely diagrams about the mechanism of natural sunlight and the anatomical view of the virus.
Thank you so much again!
is there any news about the involvement of von willebrand factor in Covid-19?
The paper referred to just before the 4 minute mark tests "a single dose" (a large dose) but finds no impact. But did they look at actual blood levels after the single dose?
I caught Covid from my husband. I recovered quickly. I take Vitamin D and keep my Vitamin D levels around 45. My husband's Vitamin D level is around 10. 4 weeks later he still has symptoms. Vitamin D has something to do with long term Covid.
Yes I was deficient and still struggle after 18 months. Now I walk in the morning if possible and evening.
@@jandromarquez84 you getting better ? That's a long time
Is that why when we were little kids we could lay out in the sun and listen to our dads worked on the vehicles or whatever we would get tired... over melatonin. The sun rays and safety of dad...
Viruses 101.... Viruses do not like sunlight.
This is pure dedication, hard work, and excellence. I enjoyed every part of it. Despite still preparing for the MCAT, You always make me to see the importance of my career goals and also motivates me to study twice harder whenever I watch your videos. God bless you Dr Roger S. and the Medcram team. Thanks Thanks Thanks 🙏
ONE OF YOUR BEST VIDEOS
Thank you for the time you took to do this, much appreciated, and will be appreciated by all someday. If the people at the top were as kind and considerate as yourself we'd be already out of this situation long ago, but because of that they're not likely to run such a study as you propose toward the end due to there being no profit motive of their particular liking :(
Thousands thanks. Your lectures are gold!
🙏🌹
Sunlight stimulates vitamin D production, melatonin and Coq10 as well 🌞
It would be interesting to overlap a graph of flu vaccination rates with the infection rate during the same time period. Same with the covid rates/vaccinations.
Where does this leave the recent practice of locking people down at home and not letting them go outside?
Remember when Florida had its Omicron spike in the summer? That's when folks in hot states stay inside most of the time.
Great info ... thanks. Curious as to the implication for use of infrared sauna ... same beneficial effects?
How do you the know sunlight per se is the cause for improvement, or the fact that people who spend more time outside get more exercise, or physical activity which makes them less susceptible to illness, rather than sunlight. Also, what about rickets. Light improved it, but when vit d was disconvendré it was thought that the light just induced vit d. Thereafter rickets was successfully treat with vit. D.
Just a little confused. All the sun drs ie Holick Garland etc say you can't make vit d unless your uncovered and no sunscreen.
The problem here is trying to sit outside in the sun in the winter at 32° or less is crazy! Vit D3 is our best bet until it warms up! So I have boosted my D3 to 5000 or 10,000 a day plus zinc, k2 and vit C, also adding vit E and cod liver oil as well as eating more fish. Trying to bundle up for the sun outside at 32 degrees or less is crazy!
I live in a 4 season state! I sit in my sliding glass door windows! Or you could get in your car and park in the sun for 15 to 40 mins! There are ways to get sun exposure even in the winter! Just have to think outside of the box! Be Blessed!
In lieu of having access to the sun under optimal conditions, can beneficial infrared wavelengths be duplicated through a heat source like an electric blanket/heat pad/light or hot baths and showers? I recall in a previous video how saunas could be helpful in the immune responses for Covid. Is that part of the same infrared principle? I understand how the eye is a part of these principles, so there are no simple answers. Thank you.
We note that these are the seven (7) component parts that make up our body's "IMMUNE SYSTEM":
(1)white blood cells, (2)antibodies, (3)complement system, (4)lymphatic system, (5)spleen, (6)bone marrow and (7)thymus
Dr. Seheult, can you at some appropriate time/opportunity, please explain how we could/should optimize the functions of the above subsets and so boost our body's ability to resist and fight infections? Simple ask.
Additionally, are there medical standards (values) that define the optimum functional level/s of each component part? Which subset is critical to the body's ability to resist the effect of SARS-CoV-2 Virus/Variants on the body? Should the skin be included in the above list?
Do you have any updates for your recommended amounts for supplementation to achieve the plasma concentrations mentioned here for high latitude folks (like Canadians)?
Absolutely fabulous information. You need to make 3 min digest videos for people to share that link back to the full explanation. Too many people dont have the attention span to watch this.
Great video and information as usual, I am glad that you adedded the 18th century information, as "old" treatments tend to be overlooked by modern science, there was wisdom in the past as well, thank you.
You are the smartest doctor! Thank you for helping us!!
If we get studies done then we need to make Solariums a Must by law in building development and design anywhere! Homes, offices, break rooms, hospitals..
Alright, time to optimize my sleep schedule once and for all!!!! Thank you for yet another educational and highly inspiring video! Amazing work.
Same- must prioritize. I’m the worst about going to bed when I should.
Guys, I did it. I started working as a carpenter with people I'm friends with and it has changed my life. I'm learning new stuff, I wake up every day at 7:30 and go to bed around 11pm. Even though it's not a high paid job, (because I'm still learning the trade) I'm happy. Going to work is not a hassle anymore 🤩
Too bad we were encouraged (or forced) to stay indoors, and parks were closed.
This was such a practical video to have. More people need to see this. I sent it to everyone I could. Thank you for this & im looking forward to many more of your great teaching’s.
How do you know that it is not sunlight from being outside, but rather physical activity from being out and about, is the thing that helps improve health. Also, light cured children with rickets. But when vit d was discovered it was reasoned that the light induced vit d, and thereafter children were successfully treated with vit d.
Thinking about the NorbSMILE light bulbs. Do any of you have recommendations? I have actually torn exterior and interior walls out of my house and added french doors to get more light in the winter. I even added a sunroom.
