Vitamin D Levels Appear to Play Role in COVID-19 Mortality Rates

Calcifediol group, 2% required admission to the ICU
Control group 50% admitted to ICU
Put another way, the use of Vitamin D reduced a patient’s risk of needing intensive care 25-fold
The Government should now act on this latest evidence
We have good reason to think vitamin D supplementation will help reduce mortality from Covid-19
we know it can reduce the incidence and severity of the other acute respiratory illnesses

This will no doubt save thousands of lives in any second wave
There is now no reason not to act
Covid-19: Do many people have pre-existing immunity? (21 September 2020, Eshani M King, BMJ)
www.bmj.com/content/370/bmj.m...
Many have T cells that act against SARS-CoV-2 epitopes
Killing intracellular parasites
Critical in viral immunity
T cell response might be more important that B cell response
onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/f...
B‐cell response might be important, but is not strictly required to overcome the disease
Vaccines focused on antibody levels
Mild or asymptomatic cases, many T-cells are produced
In these mild cases, few or no detectable antibodies
Men produced fewer T-cells than women
Older men produce less T cells than younger men
Vitamin D controls T cell antigen receptor signaling and activation of human T cells, (University of Copenhagen)
pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/20208...
Vitamin D essential to facilitate maturation of naïve T cells to dedicated, specific T cells
When a T cell is exposed to a foreign pathogen, it extends a vitamin D receptor, with which it searches for vitamin D
If there is an inadequate vitamin D level,
they won't even begin to mobilize

My wife and I have taken 5000IU per day for 3 years. My 9 month old has been given vit D each morning since he was born. Because of mandatory testing at my wife's work, we found out she was positive 2 weeks ago. We all got tested and were all positive. The ONLY symptom any of us had was I lost my smell. Otherwise we would have never known we had it. Zero symptoms otherwise. Thank the lord, were all perfectly fine. God bless, John. Your info is saving lives.
Nick Deiters do you also take Vit k2 ?
The reason for this is sars cov 2 infection causes symptoms of excessive ACE INHIBITOR usage. Sars upregulates ACE II in the body to attach spike protein to infect cell.. it naturally does this... so... Ace inhibitors increase ace II and one symptom of upregulated Ace II is loss of taste/smell! Same situation. U need an ARB or ANGIOTENSIN RECEPTOR BLOCKER to counterbalance so many cells expressing ace 2 to deregulate and alleviate symptoms...
@@mr.kamothecamoflaugedone1416 I've read some of the literature. Pretty interesting stuff. My smell is back now and hopefully my RAS is back in balance. Now, just praying for no vascular problems
@@escape0007 yes we take k2 with the vit D
High doses of B3 migh get it back but it will moist your membranes but..you might get or give away covid easier to other people .You can try after you are again free of the virus if your sense of smell dont come back -i f its gone - b3 are just temporary You have to take it every day to have a smell
I've been taking Vit D for several years, and since this spring I've had my husband take it as well (and told others about it) due to your touting of Vit. D. Thanks for providing all your info.
Can you please tell me which medicine we need to take for vitamin D consumption. I know we get it from sun apart from that what are the other things to get it
@@vijaybhaskar3087 fish, milk, eggs, oranges, nuts etc and of course vit D pills.
Cows milk is not fortified with vitamins D ,
@@vijaybhaskar3087 Just buy yourself a Vitamin D3 supplement, with a dose of around 25ug/mcg. You can buy Vit D capsules with oil in them, but they';re expensive, so just buy cheap Vit D3 and make sure you take it with any meal (any type of fat with it will do, and most meals have a fat or oil content). Available in most supermarkets, Holland and Barrett, most chemists including Superdrug or post/online suppliers likeZipvit
@@mjwilliamsb2676 thanks for your reply 👍
Didn’t realise that one of the signs of low vitamin D is lower back pain. Have been taking vitamin D in a higher dose now for a couple of weeks and my lower back pain has virtually disappeared after a decade from when I had the worst bout of flu ever. It seems the drug companies don’t want you to know the benefits of vitamin D, otherwise a lot their products would not be needed or is that being overly cynical? Thank you for your informative presentations.
JustA Spartan I started taking Vitamin D3 just 3 weeks ago and I noticed my lower back pain has also completely disappeared! I wondered!
Jo Powers hopefully many others will have the same improvements and the better health outcomes now. I’ve spent a fortune on pain gels etc over the years and not one GP had mentioned vitamin D.
well done known about this for 6 months
Didn't know that. I started taking CBD and after 20years of back pain it went away. CBD is expensive so started taking curcumin instead but at same time started taking vitamin D. Thanks for sharing that information 👍
you are not being cynical. VITAMIN D receptors are in EVERY CELL in the body. Human Biology is not unnecessarily redundant.
The problem is our capitalist system is not suited for medicine. VITAMIN D is too cheap.
Well done on this video John. People should do their.own research and not rely on main stream media. It might just save their life
@phineas gosalbe no that's why I seek opinions from as many sources as I can
That’s probably why my 95 year old family member was a symptomatic she’s been taking 1000 every day for many many years 😻😻😻😻😻💃🏻

@Dr. John Campbell That's a cute and funny exchange. Many thanks for all you do, love from Aus :D
Your vitamin D videos have saved many lives, I salute you 🙏
@E V Claiming that someones comment is stupid...is not a very good way to validate your opinion. Takes one to know one etc...
@FrogAndRooster Here's an answer for you: Not one.
Now, you tell us all how many mask-deniers/Covid-deniers have managed to cause deaths with the misinformation they've spread?
@FrogAndRooster The flu does not kill ten times more. It's the other way round, summer child. The number of deaths per flu season worldwide is 290k-650k. Covid deaths went past that a while ago already and are at 1,019,851 right now. Also the IFR for Covid-19 is higher than that of seasonal flus. Making claims that are easy to disprove just make you look silly...so stick to the truth because you really aren't doing that misinformation-propaganda thing very well..
@E V Another attempt at validating your opinion by calling someone else stupid...and trying to devalue someone by not calling them by the title they have earned. You really are one clueless troll.
You made a claim first. The burden of proof is on *you*. If you can't handle that...you can always go watch cat-videos.
And it's Dr. Campbell. He has done a doctorate and can use that title. Deal with it.
@FrogAndRooster You almost convinced me...but lost me completely at "Gates funded".
BBC is mainly funded by the tv-licencing fee. Gates Foundation has give a grant (£2.2m) to BBC Media Action, which is a charity that is legally and financially independent of BBC (2017-2018 budget £35.4m). The grant was given to support the public education, not for the news gathering of the BBC News org. Sigh...
… there may be no money in this, but there *is* money to be saved.
Not to mention even lives and long term impact on others
Not by pharms companies. Which is why it's worrying if government is being influenced by what pharms companies say, rather than by what medics say.
The vitamin industry is massive so plenty of money to be made there. Complete bogus conspiracy theory that social media love!, Just looked it up. The vitamin supplement industry is worth around 250 billion dollar.
@@gzk6nk alot of people within the government have money in the pharmaceutical industry!...of course, another reason they don't really want this information to come out!
It wasn't that long ago they were saying taking extra vitamins was a waste of money
I started taking 2000 IU of Vitamin D when I saw one of your clips at the beginning of the summer. I have spent a lot of time outdoors this summer. I walk / run about 10k every day. Eat fairly healthily. Don’t drink or smoke. Had a blood sample taken. The doctor said I was on the verge of having a slight Vit D deficit, but still within the ok range. He said, you don’t need to take any supplements. I said to him: I already do.
I will increase it to 5000 IU now that autumn is here and I live far up north. Thanks for educating us.
Many thanks, Doc. Pity this update on Vit D isn't aired on MSM everywhere. It should be. Sad people were not advised by their leaders and health "experts" from the very beginning of this crisis to take such a simple, basic, inexpensive essential. The planet sure needs people like you -- those who so easily reinforce one's faith in humanity. Appreciate your efforts. Continue to keep well and safe.
I try and tell customers at my job about the importance of vitamin D everyday! Great video :)
God bless you.
Btw watch fifth estate re ColdFX
007nadineL thank you 😊
Peter Mortensen I hope they do
I'm in the medical field (and a biracial American woman) and I'm ashamed of how long it took me to really focus on the benefits of vitamin D (my MIL is in northern US and she's white, her doctor started checking her vitamin D levels 10 years ago) for my Pedi patients. I'm in the southern US and relatively light skinned (from low sun exposure; I CAN get pretty dark on summer vacations, but that's rare for me.)--my doctors didn't start the conversation with me, I initiated the vit D discussion a few years back. I WAS low! I need to actively seek out CME for Vit D and my specialty.
It's great that at least you know now and can start to take remedial action though - don't be too hard on yourself. It is bad that doctors do not initiate this conversation. The test is expensive, I understand. *sigh* I had to battle to get the test done and they discovered I was extremely low a couple of years ago! Been taking supplements ever since. Take care and stay safe.
@@YvonneWilson312 thanks, you too! I'm so grateful for how Dr C breaks down the evidence so... Digestibly 😁. It gonna take many individuals empowering themselves with knowledge and starting the conversation, patients and HCPs.

Dear Doctor John,
I have been watching you since I was in self-isolation in March. Lots of time on my hands to look at sensible sources of advice, and I think I can spot that rather than lizard conspiracy notions. Or even that it is a mild flu ... A friend of mine died of its in April in our local cottage hospital. One of 127 deaths in Herefordshire so far, but then we are blessed with mostly sensible people, who mostly follow the rules ...
I started Vit D [Boots, standard tablets of 10 micro-grams - 90 in the container] a fortnight ago. Last week I had the return of a nearly sixty year problem: An unstoppable nose-bleed. That went on for three quarters of an hour and cost half a toilet roll. I had actually started to panic. Home alone as it were ... After I had staunched it, I rang my GP, but of course actually did not speak to my actual Doc, but did speak to a very nice lady Doc, who asked if I was on any medication. [Obviously my notes were not in front of her]. I said that I tend to avoid any medicines, unless prescribed, but had started Vit D. She was absolutely delighted. No risk and all benefit. She told me not to exceed the stated dose, which I am not, so 10 micro-grams per day. She did prescribe a topical antibiotic for my nose, but twice it created a new bleed, so I stopped. My nose has no infection, just an inherent six decade weakness.
Sorry to ramble, and there is a lot of stuff in the air work wise, so no doubt that I am actually a bit run-down from stress and poor sleep. My nose-bleeds have always come in times of extreme hot weather or when run down.
I cannot adequately express my thanks for your videos. I have no answers, but then I have no useful opinion on how serous this is. No doubt, by next Easter, I shall have a clear vision, but I do suspect that it might turn very ugly this winter for many people.
Best wishes from George [who has a RUclips channel if you want to contact me].
Hello I'm a doctor, if you're over 65, it's worth taking 25 micrograms a day at least (1000 units). The recommended levels in the UK are much too low. IF a young white person stays in the sun for 30 minutes in mid summer with heavy skin exposure, they could make hundreds of thousands of units of vitamin D. The risk of overdose is low, unless you have a high blood calcium level.
Namaste from India God 🙏 bless you Dr John Campbell for your hard work 👍
My husband and I are taking vitamin D in addition to Zinc and Vit C. Stay healthy and thank you!
Jane Miller vit d and zinc would be enough tough as ascorbic acid is found in fruits and vegetables. So try to take at least 2 fruits a day and add some vegetables with your meals and you don’t need vit c supplement but vit d is more difficult to get without supplementation as in many countries the sun is not present throughout the year and your skin can’t produce vit d if there is no sun rays on it, although there are foods that have a good amount of vit d like cod liver oil, fortified cereals, sardines and egg yolks. On the other side zinc can be found mostly in red meat there other sources which have the same amount like legumes and whole grains, zinc is needed for immune function and a healthy metabolism. Before you take supplements make sure to check if you are getting enough from your diet, as vit d overload can have harmful effects on the body like bone pain, kidney problems and fatigue this is all caused by Hypercalcemia which means that there is a harmful amount of calcium in the blood. Vit d toxicity is quite rare but it can happen.
Add 500-1000mg of Quercetin a day with your zinc to let it get into the cell
@@destroyer6074 Hypercalcemia can be avoided most of the time by taking vitamin K2
Jane Miller be careful when taking zinc supplements, too much zinc can cause your copper levels to drop too low and this can compromise your immune system and make you susceptible to another virus that can do the same damage to your spinal cord that MS does. If you take zinc supplements you should get regular blood tests. One early symptom is numb fingers and you might start dropping things. After the damage I did t myself I now prefer to get zinc from a natural source like cashew nuts.
Quercetin is great as well as immune booster
I look forward to your videos each day and appreciate your unbiased information. I live in the US. I am 63 and work in a hospital as a nurse. I had a direct exposure to a positive Covid pt. I quarantined for 14 days but did not come down with it.
Thats good Julie, Im so pleased you have stayed well
Dear Julie, despite your sense of vocation, maybe it's time to retire or at least take a back seat doing something away front-line duties.
I fear for nurses and docs here in Europe and elsewhere.
Take care.
Vitamin D3 is commonly low in Cancer patients. My Integrative physician tested me and prescribed it. My Oncologist and my Surgeon then said, yeah that is helpful. So I came away feeling the doctors know, but only the Integrative physicians assess one’s overall health, while the specialists stay in the narrow zone of their medical billing codes (in USA).
Also K2 very much needed for instance people get over calcified once they get into having morbidities so if they don't take D3 and K2 together the calcium doesn't go where it's supposed to then at the end of their life when they're about to die they put them on calcium blockers so there's your trail take the D3 and the K2 very easy liquid form everyday
@@markt9438 Like x 100000. Right on.
I’ve been taking vitamin D daily since you recommended back in Jan-Feb. I also told my family and people around me to do the same. Thank you Dr. John. God bless you and your family
Brilliant work Doctor Campbell
Thank you very much for your time and wisdom. and hard work you do to educate all of us.
You are important.
The 50% to 2% reduction in ICU admission doesn't just signify effectiveness its tantamount to a cure !!
On your recommendation I purchased 3 for the price of to packs of Vit D last week from a full shelf (supermarket in Lichfield UK). Popped back in today, and guess what? Yep, empty shelves! Keep up the good work, sir
Thank you Dr. Campbell for your videos and information on vitamin D, I have watched your videos on Vitamin D since January. I and my husband are in the older age group, he has several co-morbidities, we have been taking Vit D, C, and E since January.
Thanks to your early warnings, we prepared for the many things needed during this shut down of normal life. I have had very low Vit.D previously so your information was a timely wake up call. I retired from the Respiratory Care field, your videos have been spot on, thanks from California..
I've been taking 100mcg every day since becoming informed by this channel. I feel a lot more confident in my body's immune system.
... Incredible to think that my T cells actually physically reach out for vit D when faced with a virus!
Exercising is progressing too ... from nothing, I can now manage 6 pull-ups!
Do you mean 4,000 international units, which would be 100 micrograms
Bravo to your progress. You might also consider walking, with an ultimate goal of 10,000 steps per day.
@@Campbellteaching Yes I do, thank you John!
Tommylee what are the benefits of 10,000 steps?

Dr. John after hearing you and Dr. Vishwaroop Chaudhary from India. I am having so much confidence that we will easily defeat this COVID 19 threat through vitamin D3 and vitamin C therapy. Thank you so much for your invaluable videos.
I love your persistent dedication to the truth. Thank you Dr Campbell. I and my family and some friends and relatives are now taking 4000iu of vitamin D per day because of your persistence in defining the best course of action for all people. Thank you very much.
Such a pleasure to listen to Dr Campbell, straight forward explanations with recent sources to back up the thinking.
Vitamin D plays a significant role in the regulation of calcium and maintenance of phosphorus levels in the blood. These factors are vital for maintaining healthy bones. People need vitamin D to allow the intestines to stimulate and absorb calcium and reclaim calcium that the kidneys would otherwise excrete.👍
Daily Dose of Medicine Thank you . 🤓
It does more than that in immune system
Read my comment above about needing vitamins K2 and A in addition to the D.
Interesting article on why vitamin d works in british medical journal. Well worth a read.www.bmj.com/content/370/bmj.m3563/rr-6
odontomatix currently I combine 25 mcg Vit. D3 with 50mcg Vit K2 in order to prevent calcification of my coronary arteries. If I increase to 50 mcg D3 (as recommended by dr. John) should I also increase the Vit K2 dose, please?
I started taking twenty thousand iu of vit D, per day in gel capsule during November 2019. During December I took it down to ten thousand iu per day. Since January 2020, I've been down to four thousand iu. I was tested in June and my vitamin D levels were in the middle, between the max and minimum recommended blood levels. I'm 64 so my skin is too thin to convert sunlight to vitamin D, so supplements are absolutely essential to my health.
Remember to take vit k2 alongside vit d3 to prevent calcium build up in your veins.
Thanks both of you, I had no idea about thin skin or statins, both of which affect me.
@@djackson006 So important and many doctors neglect to give this information.
I'm the opposite....last year I was tested and found to be low in D so my doctor put me on 4000iu. When this Covid 19 started I decided to up it to 10,000iu and I've been fine ever since. So I don't understand why you went the wrong way....????
@FrogAndRooster appreciate if you can share a link to that as I am on statins and taking vitamin D
The real question is WHY are we Vitamin D deficient?
We are a world that is INDOORS too much. For so many reasons, we stay indoor and don't go outside for much of anything. The average person spends very little time outdoors in the sun.
The real pandemic here is we are all too lazy and stay indoors out of the sun. Obesity, heart disease, Hpertension, Diabetes will all improve if we spend more time outdoors doing anything.
Excactly! If we went back to our 'natral' habbits..we would be healthier, walking , gathering food, being outside. We bring bad health upon ourselfs.
Add in cholesterol lowering medications and low fat diets. You need cholesterol to convert your exposure to sunshine to vitamin D. Add in the use of sunscreens to prevent skin cancer.
@Peter Mortensen skip the middle sentient fish, and get your D3 from the source; the algae.

Why has Fauci and the WHO not made a directive for people to be issued
Vitamin D.
Surely that question begs an answer
they will always say the science isnt there, the trials havent been done. That is always their excuse.
bc fauci is worth 500 million and owns patents in moderna vax and wants everyone to take many jabs.
I think Dr Campbell has answered this question: businessmen run our governments and they only have an eye for their own bank balance. However, Fauci makes no secret that he takes massive doses of Vit D, so members of the public have all the evidence they need. The fact that Vit D is dirt cheap means that no doctor would give you a presrciption for it: they would just tell you to buy some at the supermarket. Do that.
$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$
He has said it is useful, just not enough www.health.com/nutrition/vitamins-supplements/dr-fauci-vitamin-c-and-d
John said "It concerns me that business MAY be influencing government" I found this hilarious being from the
US. Since it costs tens of millions of dollars to get elected our officials are in the company pocket before they
are even in office.
In Australia ICU cost for one person is estimated at around $4,700 a day. Saving one ICU day would pay for a huge number of vitamin D doses.
''No money in it'' Boom...!!! Nailed it, 100% Doctor.

Thank you very much John. I've been buying my vitamin D from Tesco for the past 6 months, and always available. Now as it's hitting the popular press, lo and behold, for the first time they'd run out yesterday! Regarding your comment about vit D not being profitable for producers, with the demand gradually increasing, it won't be long before they'll start increasing prices; unless of course, and hopefully, a decent degree of competition will slow the expected price rises.
Another vote for John to start a petition! Thank you for your time and effort with the research you are doing John.
I really don't know what I would do without YOU💜! Here in the United States they've only just officially admitted that it's spread in droplets over 6ft! I also truly believe that the drug companies run the show. Now my DNA is 40% British will they take me back?
Aerosols go much further than 6 ft. The big droplets fall down almost immediately but the very small ones (aerosols) not, they are floating in the air (inside). Only outside they go with the wind.

the root of all evil is money. time and time again when something questionable happens that doesn't seem correct or morale, money and greed is usually the reason.
The love of money that is.
MrBananaSlice , that’s partially accurate, the root of the addiction to money is greed in minds of people. Otherwise, money would simply be a clever way to exchange goods.
I agree with Yeng. It's the love of money that is supposed to be the root if all evil, not just money.
The US RDA (Recommended Daily Allowance) for vitamin D3 is 800-1000 u/day. Perhaps Dr Fauci should explain why he is taking 6 times the recommended level?
RDA is wrong and is minimal

Please look into importance of taking Vitamin K2 along with the D, very important
Thanks for the video. Learn something new everyday 😊 Your channel is phenomenal. Didn't know if it's in italics it is a direct quote. I had my vitamin D tested and results showed 70. I have been supplementing since I first heard you so plainly explain the need especially for those of us with dark skin. Appreciate all you do. Hope main stream media / news will have you on more , but as a regular consultant, and pay you well!! I can understand about the time constraint and the challenges but it comes with the territory and I think you can adjust to that. The need is great especially with efforts allegedly trying to muzzle the once revered CDC here in USA.
I think he was meaning if it’s in italics here it’s a direct quote. That is, he’s used italics to indicate a direct quote. That’s not necessarily true everywhere else.
May I ask how much of a daily supplement you take ?

@@stshnie Thanks. I have read other things that have done same.
Thank you from U.S.A./MEXICO (Baja California) for your videos. Please continue!
Dr John: "thank you for listening "
Everyone: "thank YOU for talking, Dr Campbell!"
I live in the u.s. but I'd like to start saying "vitamin" like the British
I never notice it until now
It sounds more grown up lol
@@CG-fy9jz haha I also "like" how the British say "maths"
I take vitamin D3 5000 iu daily, my husband takes 6000 iu. We have for many years thanks to a physician who focuses on prevention. Vitamin D3 levels are checked yearly. Thanks Dr Campbell for many months of daily COVID education!
I have been listening to you since early March and appreciate your contribution to the world. Thank you
I love your persistence. Thank you. I am sure you have and will save many many lives.
I am not seeing my adult children much during COVID19...so I send them bottles of love (Vitamin D3/K2) in the mail !
Spot on!!!
The best gift
Way to go Mama !!!😀
My eldest son announced that he would be buying me vit D3 for my birthday next week!! I explained to him that I already take it, but that some Zinc would be very welcome! I'm a lucky Mum as he's a body builder and is usually pretty clued up on diet and vitamins, so he's good to chat to when I need motivating :-)
I'll be sharing this video with him as a gentle reminder, plus I thought it was so clearly explained. Its not a simple topic, but John has such a brilliant way of getting the point across, eh! Perhaps we could all share this video with at least 3 friends ( of course there will be some of you who can't count up to 3. Probably the same ones who find it all just "too much of an effort" to put on a mask? )
Rosie White i can count to three but I don’t have any friends. Too old their all dead
Governments MAY be influenced by business!?! You think? lol!
Hahaha........off course not...
Aaaaahhhhhh

Been taking it consistently since early march, thanks to you John.
Excellent video - benefits of vitamin d should be in the government's daily briefing!
Thanks to people like Dr. Campbell, people are more curious to know about vitamin D and serious about their level. Even my video on "Vitamain D- common factor in severe COVID-19 patients?" all of sudden started performing good (in-spite of my channel being in nascent stages).
Me and my family upped our D 2 years ago and haven’t had even one cold. Sleep, heal and feel better. We take 4000-6000 iu per day unless outside in summer months. (From Canada)
Thank you Dr John. That video was the best one yet. So interesting.
Wow! Dr John, I want a brain like yours. You not only know stuff, but have a fabulous way of explaining it.
Thank you so much. Again!
I remember it wasn’t that many years ago that the health professionals and even the NHS were saying that taking vitamins was all but useless if you had a normal diet , yet the alternative practices and doctors that read the research and were ahead of the game were screaming it from the roof tops about vit D . One wonders what other natural and vitamin supplements they currently decry are actually very beneficial .
In the days when even small towns had a fishmonger or two our vitamin D levels would be assisted by a weekly portion of salmon, sardines, trout etc. BUT that was from the days when mothers stayed home raised children and cooked meals and planned menus.
The problem has been that a lot of false claims have been made about Vitamins, D included, regarding their efficacy in preventing or even "curing" a number of diseases without any credible evidence.. I think it's important to research each claim on its own merits.
Green Tea contains a chemical that is is a zinc ionosphore. This means it gets zinc into blood cells and in doing so stops or inhibits viral replication
Also Curcumin is a very powerful supplement and many professional papers written about it.
Also melatonin that i order from US because we cant buy here in UK.
Pot
EpicChannel melatonin yes , but have to be careful you get the right balance . Wonderful stuff aiding sleep and regeneration but too much and you feel stoned half the time :-)
China has to be accountable for this virus
Not the Chinese people. They're as innocent as anyone else.Just the dipshit bullies running it.
Government thinking could be influenced by business thinking - so glad your finally catching up! No patent, no money in it. Nail on the head! Especially when you look at the ties with big pharmaceuticals within the UK government. Keep up the good work John.
Best video you have done by far : well done! PLEASE have this out with our CMO !
I live in the southwestern part one the U.S. and spent so much of my childhood in the sun that I am now, at 71, advised to avoid the sun due to skin cancer concerns. Yes, I see my dermatologist twice a year and undergo local cryogenic and surgical treatments when required, but no doctor has been concerned about my vitamin D levels, until I started listening to this channel in early 2020. Thank you, Dr. Campbell. You have given me confidence that I have a fighting chance against this virus. I take about 5000iu per day now, but my doctor doesn't seem to be interested in testing my levels. He will be retiring soon, so I will be looking for a new doctor, so guess what question I will ask first!
Hello Doctor! I take 1000 mg vitamin D + calcium year round living in Northern Europe and my pharmacist told me to take it before bedtime because the body absorbs it better during sleep.
1000 mg? That's 1000000 microgram. Recomended daily intake of vitamin D is 10-20 micrograms. You're taking 50 000 - 100 000 times as much as the recommended daily intake. Doses over 5000 micrograms are considered toxic and eventually fatal and you're taking more than 200 times that, so, I have great news for you. You're long dead from vit D toxicity.
Either that, or you're confusing mg with iu. A 1000 international units(iu) of vit D a day is a more likely dose that a pharmacist would recommend. For starters, it doesn't kill you.
This is apparently incorrect, you probably meant 1.000 IU. Don't take it before bed, because Vit D affects melatonin, and you may have problems with your sleep. Take it with a meal (it's good if there's some fat in it). Take 5.000 IU, not 1.000 IU. It is super good if you also take K2 and magnesium with it. This is the winning combination. Check your blood levels and make sure to reach 50 ng/mL and you will be spared many illnesses.
Finally some attention for cross-immunity and the very important T-cell defense on your channel, thank you!
So all those hours outside on my bike prove to be beneficial to my immunesystem and helped me overcome a coronavirusattack in March!
Thanks John, so very interesting to understand the importance of Vit D in fighting viral infection. Thank you for all your efforts, I look forward to hearing your updates from
Adelaide, Sth Oz 🙏🏼
This has been my thinking all along, why don’t the government send 6 months supply of Vitamin D to all households, surely this is cheaper than the massive funding we will have to do with the NHS.
They want a lot of people to die.
I heard Matt Hancock in the house of commons say it's not effective to give out to the population this week. I'm still taking as it makes sense to be up on our vitamins and minerals.
If the idiot Hancock says it's not effective I'm glad that I do :D
What a corporate puppet
Ugggh
I don;t think there;s any need to prescribe it unless someone is severely deficient and needs the special, expensive form of it - for most of us a daily dose is dirt cheap, a prescription would cost more than buying it over the counter.
he is a liar or in the pocket of big pharma. delayed incentives
@@mjwilliamsb2676 It doesn't need prescribing, just someone admitting that it is efficacious
Thank you Sir for your kind information. It will be vital in saving lives in these horrific covid 19 conditions.
Thank you John for bringing this to the surface again. I’m angry that our Canadian “health experts” NEVER EVER TALKS ABOUT IMMUNE SUPPORT” or any health advice, just cv cv cv cases and stats
Taking 5,000 IU every day....Thank you Sir
Isn't the dosage high?? I am worried about the dosage what to take
@@ripundas320 you get 20,000 in 30 minutes of sunlight. you are meant to build up huge reserves in the summer which get you through the winter. that's how people used to live and be healthy before the government told you lies about skin cancer................
@Crest - BarcrestPlayers too much also causes problem....in the longtime...
@@golders99 relax buddy, the safe upper limit for vitamin D is very high. 5000iu is perfectly fine to take on a regular basis.
Look like your right, you need to be taking 40,000iu to get into trouble. Quote here:
"A daily intake ranging from 40,000-100,000 IU (1000-2500 micrograms), for one to several months, has been shown to cause toxicity in humans"
I've been commenting for a while about the silence of government about vitamin D. Seems like industry colluding with government. Maybe not illegal, but unethical for sure, especially in this case.
Musilini once stated that corporatism was a more accurate term than fascism since it is a sharing of power between the government and business interests
Michael Kahn - large drug manufacturers spend lavish amounts on political campaigns, they advertise heavily in mass media marketing campaigns, you can even find their ugly tentacles here on RUclips. That is why they have become so powerful. We, the public need to arm ourselves with information and demand our elected representatives promote our interests. That is why the videos of our Doctor John Campbell are so vitally important - we need to spread the word - believe me, the multinational pharmaceutical companies and the public officials they bought will not.
I tested positive for Sars/Vid I'm taking Vitamin D3, K2, Vit C, Zinc. Also drinking herbal tea, Astragalus, Andrographis and Reishi. Have lost sense of smell and have fever coming and going. Nothing else really. I am 63 years old. Stay well and great health to you all.
I have an underactive Thyroid, should I be worried about my T. cells?
Thanks for the time you dedicate to your vids, been following since February.
I am frequently frustrated by SAGE UK. They seem so slow to catch on. Patience has never been my strong suit, though.
They are all big pharma stooges. Only have their own interests at heart.
@@marksutherland774 agree, which is why they have banned hydrochloriquin, despite all the studies showing that it works.
Thank you Dr. :) 🌞
Just discovered your videos. Best I've seen, amazing information. Thank you!
All his past videos are available - you could probably have them on 24 hours a day for several weeks.
I can’t thank you enough for all your vitamin D information. I live in the USA. I asked my physician if it was okay to increase my Vitamin D due to the facts and risk factors you have mentioned. I’m obese, I’ve had gastric bypass so I don’t absorb well, and I’m in my mid 50’s. I’ve been taking 5000 mg a day and have not been able to bring my level into the normal range. I asked my doctor if I could take 10,000 units per day. She told me that’s way too much, so I compromised and added another 2000, so at this time I am taking 7000 a day and finally after 3 months I have finally reached a level in the normal range. Still low, but at least it’s rising. If it weren’t for you I would never had known how important Vit D is to our body. So I want to Thank you so much for all the information and for explaining why some people need more than others. You are completely right!!!
Get A new DR
I take 10,000 iu D3 plus K2 100 to bring D3 to at least 80NL
Taking 40000 IU in Winter and 20000 IU in summer... daily! And I m not obese!
Pharmaceuticals have by far the largest lobbying group and lobbying finances in the US, way larger than big oil.
Well done for following the evidence six months back, John!
Outstanding video Dr John! You summarized so many studies into one spot. This is really helpful! I’m hopeful our politicians in the US will start recommending Vitamin D as well since the data is OVERWHELMING now! Thank youuuu!!!
I've suffered D deficiency and had bad lower back pain and all the other stuff that goes with it. I felt so much better after taking 20000 iu. If only everyone else who doesn't watch the brilliant doctor knew about it. Thanks for all your information, you're brill👍👍
My story is identical.
