We're scared of the sun now because, you know, when they first introduced sunglasses, which by the way- Mm-hmm ... started triggering a massive increase of cancers.

[0:26](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/3BZ5aApkbeNN/en/do-sunglasses-cause-cancer-a-health-expert-s-claim?t=26) You are filtering out certain rays of the sun which are supposed to enter. You're, you're blocking them out, and the pineal gland, which receives the, the light, uh, in the different color formation, that means the entire spectrum of light, uh, it is necessary for b- for the body to have that light. That's why we have a lens

[0:44](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/3BZ5aApkbeNN/en/do-sunglasses-cause-cancer-a-health-expert-s-claim?t=44) that breaks down the white light into seven colors.

[0:47](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/3BZ5aApkbeNN/en/do-sunglasses-cause-cancer-a-health-expert-s-claim?t=47) Mm-hmm. It gets k- encoded with... These colors get encoded with chemicals in the pineal gland, and then they pass to the different parts of the body, which are needed for basic metabol- metabolic processes.

[0:58](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/3BZ5aApkbeNN/en/do-sunglasses-cause-cancer-a-health-expert-s-claim?t=58) Mm-hmm. And, uh, you make blood, you know, red light is involved in that.

[1:13](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/3BZ5aApkbeNN/en/do-sunglasses-cause-cancer-a-health-expert-s-claim?t=73) Um, when you do that, you are producing a hormone in the brain that is responsible for, um, the melanin production- Mm-hmm ... in your skin. So that's where your skin pr- uh, protection occurs. If you are not, uh, producing that, your skin becomes susceptible to even sunlight.

[1:33](https://www.translate.mom/transcript/3BZ5aApkbeNN/en/do-sunglasses-cause-cancer-a-health-expert-s-claim?t=93) So if you're not getting the UVs through your- Yes ... eyes and the pineal gland.
