Vitamin D Deficiency & Body Fat: new links w/ Fat Cell Health and Metabolism
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 25 июн 2024
- New research suggests Vitamin D influences the structure and function of fat cells and may even influence how much body fat is stored and released to be burned as energy. We discuss this emerging research and implications in the prevention of obesity and its related diseases like diabetes and heart disease.

0:00 Intro
00:26 Vitamin D is sequestered in fat tissue.
00:30 Vitamin D influences your metabolism,
00:58 Vitamin D insufficiency causes a dysregulation within your fat cells,
01:30 vitamin D cutaneous synthesis.
02:25 Vitamin D in adipose (fat) tissue affects,
02:40 When you are overweight and obese, your fat cells become necrotic, and they can die.
03:22 The active form of vitamin D
04:30 Vitamin D exerts significant effects on the formation of fat cells (adipogenesis).
05:00 Sufficient levels active metabolites of vitamin D suppress the accelerated adipogenesis, shown in animal and cellular models.
06:00 Vitamin D2 VS vitamin D3
07:00 Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol) is acquired from your food or sun exposure. Food sources are fatty fish, dairy, ruminants, the flesh/skin of vertebrae animals, egg yolks and dietary supplements.
08:10 Vitamin D5, sitocalciferol, is derived from an Ayurvedic herb called Rauwolfia serpentina.
09:05 Your liver is responsible for hydroxylating pre-vitamin D into the somewhat active form, calcidiol. This is what is measured in your blood, 25-hydroxy vitamin D.
09:20 Either your fat cells or your kidney further hydroxylates it into 125-dihydroxy vitamin D, calcitriol, is the active form.
09:55 The conversion from 25-hydroxy vitamin D to the 125 dihydroxy vitamin D is down regulated In fat cells, particularly in overweight people.
12:09 Vitamin D activates the vitamin D receptor. Generally, vitamins are cofactors. Vitamin D receptor is found in your fat tissue, kidney, muscle, and bone. When it is activated, it effects your immune system, calcium homeostasis and binding and many inflammatory pathways.
12:55 The vitamin D receptor impacts lipolysis, the release of lipids from your fat cells for energy.
13:18 Your fat tissues store between 35 and 75% of your total body levels of vitamin D.
13:46 People who have diabetes or insulin resistance or are obese, there is less fat cell turnover, which releases vitamin D that was stored in fat cells. So less vitamin D is released to the resto of the body.
14:00 Vitamin d deficiency is 35 to 40% higher in overweight or obese people, or diabetics.
14:30 Vitamin D impacts many functions within the fat cell, including the upregulation of fat cell creation.
15:08 Lipid accumulation decreases with increasing calcitriol (125-dihydroxy vitamin D) dosages.
15:40 Fat cell inflammation is mediated by leptin.
16:40 Chronic activation of immune system cells can trigger inflammation in obesity related pathogenesis in which insulin resistance is involved.
17:03 Nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappa B) transcription factor triggers inflammatory cascades within your cells. Vitamin D can inhibit this NF-kappa B activation.
17:30 Overweight or obese individuals have a higher prevalence of vitamin D insufficiency.
18:00 Dosing of supplemental vitamin D should be based upon body fat and health status.
18:23 Vitamin D impacts calcium metabolism. The balance of calcium affects apoptosis, preprogrammed cell death.
19:35 Serum vitamin D levels
20:00 Exercise helps to promote fat cell health and metabolism. It can mobilize fat cell lipids. Flux of fat cells is healthy. Fasting also promotes a healthy churn of your fat tissue.
22:00 With supplemental vitamin D, there are reductions in fasting glucose, hemoglobin A1C, and increases in triglycerides, improving metabolic health.

Interesting point
Period!!
I like the discussions on vitamin D and preventing inflammation (including a recent video on importance of walking after eating). I download and watch virtually every video you put out. Thank you for doing all you do! I try to hit like each video too, as a small first step in giving thanks back for your content! Your philosophy emphasizes personal responsibility and I think out culture desperately needs that (and there is a peer reviewed paper on external locus of control sadly drastically increasing over the last several decades!)
Really appreciate that!
Ditto!, Well said. Always thought provoking information and its never a 'how to'....more of a 'what if' ie. informational and inspirational not dictatorial. 🌞🥳👏
Can you provide a link to that study?
I’m glad I discovered your channel because there was so much dismissive behavior in the American medical community regarding the work of the Irish doctors working the first wave of COVID and their observations on Vitamin D. It was appallingly clear when I started asking people I thought might know at my hospital not only do they not know but they didn’t care about anything that wasn’t being handed down by the CDC. Thanks for doing this video
Anecdote on D and inflammation and perhaps histamine response: I was a runner for 36 years and spent much time outdoors. I suddenly stopped running and nearly 100% of my outdoor light exposure stopped. I then noticed higher “allergic” responses to foods, mosquito bites and bee stings. While I am not overweight and still maintain my 6’2” 165. I suspect I should get back outside and boost my bit D as it seems that bit D is critical to improving immunity.
We have allergies and noticed sugar intake effects it too
I think it's really important, I suspect the reason I got acute guttate psoriasis was because I was covered all the time and not just because I had throat infection.
@@facelesstruth4961 I agree. As well our sedentary/indoors/all sun exposure is bad/too often poor diet/high stress/ obsessive anxiety-filled lifestyles, doesn’t help with bit D levels.
If you stop milk and dairy with Casein A1 with outdoor activity +D3 and probiotic suplementation, everything like alergic reactions will be HISTORY for you💪
Be safe and healthy
Greetings from Macedonia👋👋
@@fimokostov3110 this is what I adjusted to except for the D3. I just started on d3 this past month.
Wow! About 6 months I started taking vitamin D because I learned it can help in the fight against Covid. I also started a cardio program to burn fat, I weighed around 169 and was hoping to burn off 10 pounds if I was lucky. I have tried many times to lose weight which is what kept me around 165-170. At present I'm at 154 and have been losing weight at a steady pace even after I stopped the cardio program 6 weeks ago. I couldn't understand why this time I lost so much but was of course over the moon. This explains or could explain why such a drastic weight loss. For reference I'm 49 so weight loss isn't easy
That's amazing! How much Vit D do you take per day?
Woohoo! Any updates? I would also like to know your dosage and were you taking any cofactors?
I’m so excited about this. No matter what I do I can’t get rid of belly fat. It is depressing. Maybe this will work
I just had my labs drawn earlier this month and my vitamin d was 67 ng/dL. I was surprised. I have been seeing a functional medicine practitioner for over 6 years and my levels have always ranged between 29-41. I have been walking outside daily for almost 2 years and supplementing for ~ 6 years (increasing from 5000 to 10000 IU in the past 4 months). I guess my gut is finally healing and I’m absorbing better.
Your skin can actually become more resistant to absorbing when you spend a lot of time in the sun. So you may need to increase the time spent in the sun
The higher level of supplementation might have something to do with it, right?
@@AN-jw2oe a few other lab values have also increased in the past 6 months that I have been supplementing steadily (ie no increase in dose) hence my thinking it might be an absorption thing. Plus Rhonda Patrick mentioned values changing so much per 1000 IU and I exceeded expectations with the increase from 5000-10000IU.
@@alefept do you know what video od Rhonda's this is exactly?tyvm if you do 🙏
@@dana102083 Sorry. I tried finding it but couldn’t. I just remember thinking that I would have to take a ton to get my serum levels up because supplementing for years with 5000 IU did very little.
Hi from Ottawa, Canada... GO TRUCKERS!!!!!!
Really helpful that you took the time to share this study, many thanks! The fat cell death is rather disturbing. STAY FIT!
I had my vitamin D levels done in December and came in at 184 nmol, which is the highest it's ever been. Great research again. Thanks for sharing
OmegaQuant's at-home blood spot Vitamin D test kit should have been put in to mass production back in 2020 and paid for with our tax dollars.
Anecdotal: In 2019 I had climbed up to 500 lbs after breaking my leg, tearing both my meniscus, and then the next year breaking my back. Now I supplement with D3 twice daily, as well as a bone density supplement with calcium, zinc, and magnesium, I eat red meat, dairy, and eggs relatively regularly, and I do a ketogenic diet, and I am unvaccinated for SARS-COV2. Never got COVID, haven't even had as much as a head cold outside of allergies in the last 5 years. I am a 40 yr old male with a BMI of around 45%, morbidly obese would be accurate. Hypertension has been a problem for me and I regulate it with 20mg of Lisinopril each morning. I began an exercise program and ketogenic diet in 2020, and lost about 100 lbs, to get where I am now which is about 395 lbs. I could not lose the weight until I started taking Vitamin D3 supplements twice daily consistently. I just had bariatric two weeks ago to combat the metabolic syndrome, and the only vitamin they give you is a multivitamin, so I started today taking my D3 again. I grind it up and mix it in some Greek yogurt. Whole diet right now is yogurt, bone broth, soup, soft cheeses. I am dropping weight like crazy because of the caloric restriction, the attention to micronutrients and gut biome. Even though its only about two weeks out from surgery I feel amazing and I wish I had done this right after I broke my leg, but the insurance wouldn't cover it. Moral of the story is, my wounds from surgery healed in like four days. I was up and walking ten laps around the hospital ward every two hours starting four hours after surgery. The nurses couldn't slow me down. Good nutrition is everything. Don't poison yourselves with garbage pretending to be food, and make sure you get you D3 and Calcium and the rest of your essential vitamins and minerals through any way you can, weather its raw foods or supplements. I will be back in the gym in a week and I cant wait to get to it. Also your videos are amazing! Thank you for the content and excellent explanations. I have taken lots of health courses at college and university including mid-tier chemistry, biology, and human physiology so I understand everything you are talking about most of the time. I haven't had to look anything up yet so that means you are doing a great job explaining! Thank you!
These summaries are a real help. Thank you!
Thanks for all this and the wonderful info you provide. Just ordered 3 kits!!!
You are a font of useful information! Even the technical jargon is made digestible on your podcasts!
Have not been watching you lately been busy. Great video and thank you for everything you do. God bless
You inspire me, your videos are so informative and make me look at my diet in detail, thank-you 🙏😊
That's the goal, thank you!!
Thank You! A lot of new important information, very helpful 🌹
I just subscribed. Thank you for this informative video!
You da man, Mike! Thanks for another enlightening video.
So greatful to listen to this podcast... talking to the wife about having you and Dr. D doing a closer look at our diet/supplimental process.
Thanks Mike ! great explanation ! great presentation
This paper is super interesting right??
This was fabulous info to know. My D was undetectable. I eat healthy but not much, fast regular and kept gaining weight ( approaching meno) felt lethargic and achy all the time for about two years until I found about my D levels. Once I stated taking the max dosage as per my Doctor, felt a diffe rence in two weeks. I didn't really know how important vitamin D was until then. So went from no pills to max D, along with K, multi vitamin and C everyday.
Really appreciate this information.
I love your content and I am newly studying nutrition as a career as well as Nursing, keep em coming!!!!! LOVE the content!!!!! Thank you
Thanks for sharing Mike. great information.
Wow. This was amazing information. Thanks.
Thank you for providing information. It is so valuable in that it empowers people to manage their own health!
Thanks for thr info. I wish I had time to watch more of your videos.
Very good info.
Mike, there is an ios app called Dminder that shows you the when your skin can make vitamin D based on your geographic location. Even here in Spain, the sun is not high enough in the sky for 2-3 months a year for the UV-b to penetrate the ozone layer. I don’t think it is the best looking or most functional app, but it works.
I understand your disclaimer, but doctors MD ‘s. Are about the dollar, it’s a business. They never discuss vitamins . I have found you have to be your own dr . In some case MD has its uses . Just like we need a mechanic. Thank you for your insight on issues that are very helpful.
Im far off of being over weight and all but I've always been sick and every bug there was I got it. I was always absent at school etc. Past 2 years I've been dealing with every day fevers,muscle pain,fatigue and weight gain although I havent been eating any different that usual. Turns out my vitamin D levels were 20 nmol/l. Ive been using vitamin D ampoules 25000IU once a week for a month and a half and Ive already lost 3 kg and didnt feel the need to have a nap in 3 weeks!! Had no idea that lack of one vitamin could cause so many health problems.
Trying to correct all of this. It's going to take some time. Thanks for the info.
Agree! Thank you
Thank you for an amazing video!!😃
Thanks for your link to science abs resources 🌝
I take D3 50000IU/day. I feel great. When I took my big health test the doctor think I am crazy becouse I aiming of a D vitamin level over 125ng/ml for optimal health. I also take large dosage of K2 to regulate calcium and large amount of good magnesium. All my body pain is gone and my skin never feel dry anymore.
You’re supposed to take those only once a week
I have been taking 40,000iu a day along with k2 for the last 4 months and feel great . My psoriasis have cleared up and skin feels smoother
@@lady7895 I take it every day.
Yes, Pain in both elbows, pain in the back and problem with my left foot. I hade a mucle dammage and my foot bends to the side sometime and I bend the foot and cant walk without pain after the damage that hapends a couple of timed a year. All problem is gone. An old mark I have for 30 years in the hand pop out. It was a smal pice of Wood. Healing wond is faster. I almost never get sick. I have been sick one time the last year. Its intressting what the body can do.
@Taiwo Omotosho Interesting. Now I take K2 5mg (mk4). My calcium level was in the normal range. What I heard the optimal level is slightly over125ng/ml to get the healing effect. Yes magnesium is importent, I take 400mg 3 times/day. I hope you cure the sideaffect. If I should take K2 mk7 I probebly shuld take >250ug/day. Good luck!
Super helpful !!!
Thank you for sharing
Great job!!!
Awesome, thank you!
Excellent discussion on vitamin D and adiposity. Thanks
Solid overview.
Thanks HIH
Great channel, great topics: keep up the great work. People have to hear about these non pharmacological ways to better health. From, a pharmacist 🙏🏻
Thanks Mike
Thank you for being my Health AI 😊
WHAT!!! you mean you’re a real person 😳
This makes total sense, ever since my vitamin D levels dropped this winter (we get very little sun here in Belgium) I found it harder to lose the stubborn belly fat, even with diet and exercise. Also my sleep got messed up
Vitamin D plays a big part since I have subscribe. To your channel I have learned alot thank you...
Great video today, would love to know which other nutrients one needs to take to make Vitamin D more effective?
Thanks Mike.
Great video
Thanks Mike, great video. If I may be so bold as to make a suggestion and that would be to translate many of the technical words into easily understood English. Thanks.
Dumb down you mean ??? Hmmm!!! Don’t you think that maybe you should make more effort !!
I remember having a cold one year back when I was a sunbather and it was the first warm day of the year and I got my cold sick self in the sun and I could FEEL the sun working and my cold just evaporated. It was the most powerful medical intervention for a cold I have ever experienced. This all inspires me to get my old body in the sun again this year to help protect me from covid. Sun bathing also helped fight the arthrtis from vaccine damage 20 years ago when I got Hep B vaccinated. Sun light is more potent than supplement forms, but I can do both. I had a neighbor whose was a crazy old sunbather, wrinkled weathered deeply suntanned skinny (drinker) who died suddenly of total organ failure in his late-mid sixties, the year before covid broke out, so you do need to take care of other things and it doesn't take THAT much time in the sun. Bare minimums are best.
Alcohol causes numerous deficiencies, damages the liver. One can even be a skinny Diabetic: TOFI
Thin Outside
Fat Inside
You don’t know what that person ate, or if they smoked.
Once that dark, that person would not absorb sun as well.
@@marlenegold280 He was a non-smoking vegan. I suspect he did not drink enough water. Alcohol really dehydrates and tricks you into thinking you are consuming liquids when you are just drying out. The Supersize Me documentarian proved that fast food is even worse than alcohol. Much of potential alcohol damage can be remediated by proper hydration . . . if it is not extreme or prolonged.
There is now recent research that the sun helps to generate both melatonin and Coq10. It’s not just about Vitamin D 🌞
@@OWK000 alcohol reduces the body's ability to absorb nutrients
@@thegratefulsteve Dehydration reduces the bodies ability to process nutrients . . . which is kinda the same thing. Dehydration is ONE of the things that alcohol DOES. Dehydration can be remediated to a certain extent by drinking water and cleansing, hydrating, fluids.
My father, a man of good shape, had issues for years with a bleeding rectum/anus.
I started having a similar issue in my forties during Winter bathroom pauses. I figured it was due to the 20 or 30 lbs weight fluctuation between Summer activities and sedentary Winter. I will also point out that prior to this, I was a monster consumer of milk. However, due to some other joint issues and such, I stopped with the milk consumption.
After years of experiencing a bleeding rectum/anus figuring it was an inherited due to my father's experience, I just thought it a getting older issue.
My seasonal weight increase/decrease tickled my brain since my Winter appetite is ravenous compared to Summer. So, I figured I'd try a Winter season with vitamin D supplements.
And let me tell you, the vitamin D supplements stopped the bleeding rectum/anus issue and my Winter appetite, although is higher than Summer, is far less than it was under no vitamin D supplement regiment.
I'm not telling anyone what to do. I'm just relaying my experience.
Wow!! This is absolutely incredible, thanks for sharing.
That sounds intense, well vitamin D is the good shit
Years ago I worked selling supplements in a health store. A woman came to buy her Vit D and explained to me at length how it had miraculously changed her life from being predominently housebound to being able to function almost 'normally' within a 6 month period of initiating Vit D supplementation. May I add I get out into sunshine at every possible moment too. So pleased it helped your condition . 👍💖
It has to do with fat intake...you need to increase healthy fat in your diet..such as Virgin olive oil, wheat germ oil, avocado oil, walnut oil, M CT OIL...etc. Or eating hemp seeds will also relieve this issue. May God bless your journey 🤗
what was the milk doing negatively?
Hi Mike. Thank you very much for this information. When you say diabetics (13:53), do you mean both types or only T2Ds?
Thanks, Maria. Mostly Type 2.
Mike, I'll bet many of your listeners are not obese. Thx for all you do.
Conversely, those who are under weight or anorexic have problems with low vit D & osteoporosis... they don't have enough fat for conversion to active form
I can see you've been hitting the biceps... Holy hell! 💪🏼
You are correct to emphasise getting your vit D level tested.
In February 2021 I had my vit D level tested 4 weeks after uping my supplementation from 2000 to 4000iu.
The result was 149.5 nmol/litre, at the top of the recommended range.
Fast forward to jan 2022 when I was retested. My level now is in exess of 250nmol/litre and I have hypervitaminosis D.
My serum calcium level is OK so hopefully I caught it in time before any damage done.
I am now avoiding vit D for the next 6 months whilste my level drops.
Did you experience any of the symptoms of hypervitaminosis
My level was 749..
Highest my doctor had ever seen. Calcium 2.2.
I'm busy getting lots of vit k2 to help with that 😬
@@bbjudyfit I have no appetite, A little constipation And some anxiety. I'm 69 bmi 22 ish.
@@donaldevanshennings7732ahh ok.. thanks for your reply! :)
250 nmol/litre equates to an American reading of 100 ng/ml. My testing lab reference range for NORMAL is 30 to 100 ng/ml. Some labs have a 30-80 ng/ml reference range. When you were at 150 nmol/l, you were only at 60 ng ml. I wouldn't stop taking your Vitamin D altogether. Who wants to be deficient when Covid is still with us. You need to have a minimum level of 50 ng/ml to protect against serious Covid consequences. That would be a minimum level of 125 nmol/litre for you. Just reduce your dose proportionally. I guess your doc hasn't "gotten the memo." You might want to take Vitamin K2-MK4 to make sure your calcium goes into your bones instead of your arteries or kidneys. I do. Do some more reading on Vitamin D. I understand that many of the researchers think that levels up to 150 ng/ml are safe, and possibly higher. Just get tested. Hope you do well!
During times of extreme stress ive found dosing 120'000 iu to be helpful as well with no side effects whatsoever
That's courageous
Loved it
Thank you for the information about vitamin D3 and the effects on fat in the body.
Thanks Mike, I'm curious how joint injury affects inflammation. I feel great in the summer, I am a stone mason in the North East and I get lots of sun in the summer. I take D supplement in winter, but I am now going to double my intake to 8K. I have inflammation in fingers of one hand, showed up in January.
If one is supplementing vitamin D, would you advise supplementing K2 and magnesium to offset the rise in plasma calcium levels? Some people are supper sensitive to elevated calcium levels
Thank you, Mike! Could you share info about too much vitamin D POSSIBLY causing bone loss??
U should talk about other vitamins/supplements and speak about the functions/symptoms of different vitamin / other deficiencys
Thanks for the information! Isn’t it best to take K2 with D3? What is the role of K2?
I did everything to lose weight but nothing helped i never dropped any weight with diet exercise and what so ever so i got disappointed and stopped exercise as i had always been very achy and extremely tired after exercise. My dad told me to get my vitamin D levels check as i was over weight and not losing any fat. I found out i am extremely deficient so i took vitamin D and didnt do any exercise or physical activity specially to lose weight as i never dropped any weight with that and was disappointed. 3 months of taking vitamin D someone mentioned that i looked alot lean and suggested me to check my weight. I checked and was 8 kgs down without even trying first time in life i am just amazed to see the benefits of taking vitamin D in improving sleep , energy levels and good mood.
Great!
My grandparents were medical doctors, they practiced till they were really old. Their patients loved them very much. They always said that you get vitamin d only in tender morning sunlight. Is that true?? They always prescribed food and vitamins rather than allopathic medicine. There approach was very different than the new doctors . You remind me of them.Thanks.
My doc recommends a Vit D shot every six months. Is there any reason/advantage/disadvantage for supplementation orally vs. I.M.? (Love your videos! Thank you!) A thought; this would very much tie to alcohol-liver disease, and undermethylation-thyroid (rT3) issues(?)
I think people dismiss the actual degree of importance D3 has. The key is taking Alot to get your levels way up for optimal performance. 1 a day does nothing
I have done that
with purchased mushrooms for years, ie putting them in the sun prior to eating, I figure every little helps and i like that it is natural.🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞
Good morning, it is 9:10 a.m. Pacific time. I noticed you have a link for vitamin d3, and I do notice that you do sell vitamin D3 K2 and the only reason I looked for it is because I know about K2. From what I know about all that I don't think I would ever want to buy just a vitamin D3 by itself. Unless I did eat natto or something else that has the vitamin K2.
I would love to support your work on your channel. I've been getting my d3k2 from another source. So I assume that the myoxcience is your company, I think I remember hearing you say something about that years ago.
I just recently got my vitamin D levels from the myoxience test. 32.2; on the low side of what is considered normal. That is with using a Sperti D lamp 3x/week. I’m now doing high D loading per Jeff Bowles with cofactors (k2, magnesium, boron, zinc, beta carotene.). I’ll check it again next year
I currently take 10,000 of vitamin D a day. My tested level was only 55 on that much D. I am overweight, and as i understand it, that interferes with absorbing vitamin D.
Vitamin D3 is best..over D2
Add K1 and K2 also 😉
@@kathleenking47 that's what i take.
@@8675-__ i do that too.
Awesome thank you so much! The d3 k2 blend, that was made from lanolin and what? Been looking for a good lanolin only (mainly no fish no nut) d3 supplement. Is it organic? What is the k2 from? I used to take k2 all the time but stopped when I stopped being able to drive hours to the nearest health food store. Thanks again
How are K2 D3 supplements? I know i should shop around vs relying on Wal-Mart
Can you comment on whether a short tanning bed session would also help with Vit D production?
I just found this site, so thank you for the helpful information!!!
So if I have fatty liver, which I'm pretty sure I have, as well as quite a bit of visceral fat, will taking vitamin D suppliments help or not? I wasn't sure since it sounds like having those problems to begin with, inhibit the body's conversion of vitamin D into a workable solution for the body. Or did I miss the point entirely?
I truly am interested because in the last three years I have packed on the weight due to taking a certain anxiety prescription and probably due to this lovely pandemic. I want to drop the pounds and get healthy again! Please help!
You mentioned exercise, but didn't distinguish between strength training or cardio.
Dr Micheal Holick book The Vitamin D Solution will save your life...as always great information thank you..
My Vitamin D level was 169. My Doctor freaked and told me to stop supplements. I’m getting rechecked end of month so I don’t go low. I was doing 5,000 IU with K2 plus ate 95% Carnivore.
Were you experiencing any negative side effects?
@@XyZ98768 No not at all. I just went for my annual bloodwork.
Actually felt better before I stopped the supplement few weeks ago.
Oh also (knock on wood) I didn’t get jabbed and didn’t get sick at all the past few years~~ no colds, virus or flu
@@Bevygirl Thanks for replying. I know everyone is different, so I'm always curious to hear people's negative side effects when their D is high.
My 94 year old father in law had blood work and he was at 125. The Dr flipped out and told him not to take D for 6 months. His labwork showed his kidneys and liver were fine. He felt really good and hadn't been sick for over 3 years and he had severe RA. He didn't get jabbed and has never gotten Rona. He takes a multivitamin, D3/K2, Electrolytes and Emu oil. He also eats carnivorish.
Where can I find a chart for Vitamin D3 dosage compared to BMI? I have been stuck in weight loss and I am adjusting this one variable.
Wild caught Cod Liver Oil, Baby!
great video. could you please talk about vitamin k in relation to vitamin d? there are some claims that if vitamin d is taken without vitamin k that the calcium could be redirected to places like the arteries and less wanted areas but if taken with vitamin k that it will direct it to places like bones and where it wants to go... making people question whether they should even take vitamin d if they dont have any vitamin k on hand.
Would it be wise to take vitd3 during a fast? I've been using metabolic mondays to better my health. More so than regular fasting. I've lost 30lbs by cycling 36hour fasts over a period of time.
My triglycerides are off the chart they are so high. Does this mean taking Vitamin D3 supplements are dangerous for me? Should I discontinue them? Thank you!
Increase triglycerides is good??
I think it is BOTH vitamin D and exposure to sunlight.
10,000%!!
Yes, Sunshine is a miracle healer for me , i take Vit D in the Winter but sunshine is something else entirely 🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞🌞.
Had high hopes for this, already did 10-15 thousand units for a year
With vitk2, no changes noticed
It seems like IU 5.000-10.000 D3, 200 mcg Vitamin K2 and 400 til 800 mg good quality magnesium daily, is a good combo. But, ask your GP or get your levels checked. Also a 50 vitamin B complex each day is good.
Getting your own brain next level
Dr judson sommerville and Jeff bowles have great books on vitamin d
I was stationed at Fort Drum NY, (upstate) and i did a small experiment with myself.
I did 3 months of just regular eating, training(long ruck marches) etc. I didn't feel terrible but i did not feel optimal. I went 3 months of an increased uptake of vitamin D3 from Walmart and my performance increased significantly as well as how i felt during recovery. It was comparable to when i was stationed at camp Pendleton California. I felt amazing. Is the generic vitamin D3 that's available at Walmart the same "vitamin D" that's being discussed in this video? Like, is "vitamin D" just a blanket term for D3,D4,D5 etc? Are they interchangable to a certain degree?
I'm in MO. north of Georgia. What time of the year can we get vitamin D from the sun?
I’m planning on doing the test do I need to stop taking vitamin D a few days prior to the blood test?
In addition to Sunshine mushrooms supplements isn’t there a fair amount of vitamin D to be derived from Green leaf vegetables?
Does anyone know if the body can produce adequate levels of vit d from sunlight if a person is underweight or does not have much adipose tissue? Just curious.
Any idea in your opinion/thoughts what would be the reason as to why I get extremely sleepy everytime I take vitamin D3 50,000IU (once a week) 1 hour after the dose I get drowsy and sleep for hours. This also happened with D3 5,000IU. I take K2 and Magnesium along with these doses but only get drowsy mainly when I take my D3 I’ve noticed. I hear that I should be getting more energy rather than being lethargic after the dose ..
I’ve got diagnosed with D deficiency 3 weeks ago at a level of 16. Suffering from chronic fatigue, brain fog, anxiety & panic attacks. After the first dose it seems my brain fog and anxiety has lightened but the fatigue is still lingering. after my first dose I felt energy but it’s been downhill with fatigue ever since my 2nd week dose of 50,000iu, seems odd as how my fatigue symptom is on and off but now flares up with d3 supplement..
I have 12 year old twins. Which blood works should I truly check to see that everything is fine with them?
