Vitamin D and MS - Are We Taking it Wrong?!?
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 31 май 2024
- Vitamin D, are we taking it wrong? Many take vitamin D when they have multiple sclerosis (MS), but are we taking it wrong? Low vitamin D levels have been associated with developing MS and associated with development of new lesions. How we take it could affect how well it is absorbed. In this video I share why vitamin D is important, who could benefit from taking it, and simple ways to help it be more effective for us.

Don't forget K2! It's super important to include with D3 & magnesium. It gets the calcium out of the blood and into the bones where you want it to end up.
Yes! I take K2 as well to help with the calcium.
👋 Thank you! Did you take a communications course? You have amazing communication skills and you’re very knowledgeable in MS. It is really helpful to me because lately, I’ve been on bed rest. I’ve just about watched half of your videos. Thanks for helping us!
Thank you! No communications but I have had my own Virtual Assistant business for 20 years. Lots of experience working with my clients. I have been learning along the way with my MS diagnosis and I really like reading the research. 🧐 I am sorry you are on bed rest. I hope you are up and about soon!
@@EvenSoItIsWell I think that is amazing! I am currently majoring in English however I am having trouble finding a career where I could teach literature, grammar etc. I do a lot of research in those areas. Now MS too.Thank you for your kind wishes.
I meant “use” not teach! I don’t really want to be a teacher
Excellent. I learned a lot for my general health!
Plus I found a nice reason to take the time to make a nice cup of cocoa😄
Thanks, Vickie.
Thanks Emma!
As always, super informative and helpful. Thank you!
Good morning Elizabeth! Thanks for watching. I am so glad you find the videos helpful. Please feel,free to share them with others who might find them helpful too!
Thank you for sharing this information! I use a magnesium spray after I shower everyday….hope I’m getting enough magnesium from this form. Would be great to see a video about the spray! 😊❤️
Thanks for watching. I did look into topical magnesium, unfortunately very little is absorbed through the skin. Some can get absorbed near hair follicles and sweat glands but they make up less than 1% of our skin area. Check out this review www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5579607/
They did end by saying more research is needed though.
@@EvenSoItIsWell Thanks so much for this reply and information. I really appreciate it! ❤️
Speaking of vitamin D absorption lets not rule out , toss 'n forget it's relation to obesity.
body fat can reduce the absorption of vitamin D3 and is thought to be one of the reasons for vitamin D3 deficiency in obese people. Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin, meaning it must bind to fat to be absorbed and used by the body. When vitamin D is absorbed or synthesized in the skin, it is converted to its active form in the liver and then in the kidneys. Since fat cells can bind vitamin D, obese individuals have a greater volume of fat cells that effectively "trap" vitamin D, making it less available for conversion to its active form

Once again, another valuable video.
Thanks. Coffee's on me.
Here's to a better health. Cheers !
Thanks so much for the coffee and the valuable reminder about our body fat in relation to vitamin D availability!
Another great video, thank you. Which Almond milk do you use, the vast majority are UPFs?
Thanks for watching Carl. You are absolutely right that most plant milks classify as ultra processed foods. We use the Whole Foods 365 brand. It does contain multiple ingredients but we using sparingly or as a treat. When I was first diagnosed I was working with a nutritionist and I asked “How good do I half to be?” She recommended that I try for 90%. 😉
Thanks for another great video!!
@@pattischmitz2680 thanks Patti!
Great info. What about vitamin k2 with d3?
Thanks for watching! Excellent question. I have looked into K2 a bit since my doctor recommended I add it to help with calcium absorption. I may do a video on it soon!
@@EvenSoItIsWell please do! I've looked into it a bit myself, but I would love a video from you.
Ohhhh maybe a nice reason to treat myself to an epsom salt bath once or twice a week.....magnesium is supplied that way through the skin . .I have a difficult time eating when I flare with CRPS and so far my doctor and a pain specialist still don't believe it could be anything else. My chiropractor mentioned to me I should be tested for MS . I never mentioned to her that I believe the CRPS has turned into MS . Still searching for a doctor who will listen though and offer to test me. I'm stuck in a rock and hard place, if I can close out the workers comp case in which the CRPS occurred then I can break free to find new docs. There is more to my case than meets the eye
I am sorry you are experiencing such pain. I hope you can get answers soon. Magnesium bath may help a little but we only absorb it through the hair folicles and sweat glands which is less than 1% of our skin area. Check out this review. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5579607/
Thank you for your concern and the resource =)
I take magnesium for migraines, also take D3.
Brilliant! How are your vitamin D levels?
@@EvenSoItIsWell they could be better, but since taking vitamin D they have gotten better. I’m going to talk to my doctor about taking a prescription vitamin D. Love your videos, signed up for the newsletter! Excited! Thank you for all that you do. Stay strong. 🧡
@@cassdevericks3422 excellent. I hope the levels rise. Thanks so much for watching.
I still have severe eye pain especially in the back is that a symptom of MS
Hi Michele, it definitely can be a symptom of MS is your optic nerve has a lesion or is inflamed (optic neuritis). A doctor could tell you for sure.
@@EvenSoItIsWell I told my doctor and opthalmologist that and I and I know wake with it and a migraine and headache
@ oh no, I am so sorry you have migraines as well. I hope the doctors can help you with the pain. Please try to focus on the things you can control; eat the most nutritious foods you can, exercise as you are able, try to get good sleep, and practice mindfulness and meditation.
