29 Jan To Your Health: Safdi Responds to Outside Magazine on Sunscreen
Dr. Alan Safdi, a world-renowned internist and gastroenterologist with encyclopedic knowledge of mind-body wellness and preventative medicine, returns to Telluride Inside… and Out with a series of posts under the banner of “To Your Health.” His blogs will feature the most current information in his field: healthy, wellness and longevity.
Dr. Safdi continues this week with a podcast that corrects some of the false and misleading claims made in a recent article that appeared in Outside Magazine on sunscreen.
Some of that learning will also be showcased in three-day seminars Safdi and his partner, radiologist Dr. William Renner, are offering this winter at The Peaks Resort & Spa in Mountain Village to medical professionals, whose participation qualifies them for at least 16 hours of Category 1 CME or CEU credits. The general public is also welcome. The dates of the lectures this winter are Feb. 28 – Mar. 3, 2019; Mar. 6 – Mar. 8, 2019; Mar. 27 – Mar.29, 2019.
Subjects under discussion at the Symposiums will answer other questions such as: What are the risks and rewards of supplements, including multivitamins? Should women be getting regular mammograms? What are the alternatives on the horizon for breast cancer screening? These and other important health-related subjects – micro-nutrients, common medical disorders and nutrition – will be addressed, revealing findings, not opinions, from evidence-based medical research.

And please scroll down to find out about Dr. Safdi’s Live Longer Retreat wellness intensives planned for this coming summer. Those dates are July 21 – July 29, 2019 ; Aug. 11 – Aug. 17, 2019; and Sept. 15 – Sept. 21, 2019.
On January 10, Outside Magazine published an article on sunscreen by Rowan Jacobsen, stating that current guidelines for sun exposure are unhealthy and unscientific, controversial new research suggests—and quite possibly even racist. The article asks how did we get it so wrong? The basic tenet of the piece appears to be that we are over-protecting ourselves from the sun at the detriment of our health and well-being. But were the many claims in the article about Vitamin, D, skin cancers, etc. leading people astray and therefore very dangerous? Dr. Alan Safdi breaks it all down and puts the unprotected truth in the bright light of day.
