Anthony Browder: The Mysteries of Melanin
/
The first people to inhabit the Earth were Africans, with blue-black skin, who lived on the equator. These Africans had high concentrations of melanin in their skin which served to screen out the harmful ultraviolet light from the sun. In the African brain, a melanin hormone is secreted which is the essence of what we now call soul.
The more melanin there is in the skin, the darker it is and the less it ages from sunlight exposure. Scientifically speaking, black skin is 100 percent more efficient in screening out harmful ultraviolet light than white skin.
It is because of a lack of melanin and the deterioration of the ozone that whites are now warned to avoid exposure to sunlight. It has also been shown that both herpes and the AIDS virus are activated by ultraviolet light.
Think about it; the sun is the life giver; but for people who lack melanin, the sun means death. This black, light-absorbing molecule called melanin is recognized as one of the primary keys of life. Melanin is what makes people human. Melanin connects people to the creative forces of the universe.
Melanin has been found in the oceans, the soil and our food, particularly bananas, eggplants and greens. Melanin is present in clouds and stars, and it has even been discovered on the outer surface of Haley's comet. Melanin has been found to be active in unearthed bones which were over a million years old.
As ever-present as melanin is, it still remains a mystery to scientists. It cannot be analyzed. lt cannot be broken apart. It cannot be fingerprinted.
