My wife had crippling sciatica pain last year for months. Endless blood tests. xrays they prescribed pain meds but did talk of adding in thyroid meds. As a retired engineer, I was concerned the effects on her liver. We got hold of her blood tests and using pubmed as my guide, worked out she just needed minor diet changes (primarily more fat, less sugar) and added modest doses of Vitamin D3, K2, some turmeric, magnesium each day. These are all commonly deficient as we age. In our case all pain was gone in 3 weeks. A pity they don't teach this basic stuff at med school.
the best surgical intervention was no surgery and delayed surgery but unfortunately this policy was described by hospital admin as negative revenue group of doctors with bohemian ideology and less progressive! early cataract operation of one eye was discouraged for total both eye vision , is a serious dilemma!
I got rid of my crippling sciatica with physical therapy. I devoted myself to follow the exercises and it just went away. I follow up anytime I feel the pain coming on. It really works!
time is a big element in our busy lives. A lot of us don't have the time or money to spend on whole foods. That's why we do supplementation where we can get a high concentration of nutrients as we can get in a multiple vitamin
The negative effects of concentrated/ isolated antioxidants have been known since I was in university 20+ yrs ago. Dr Colin Campbell’s book ‘Whole’ gives an extensively researched and experienced compelling argument against the reductionist strategy for nutrition.

nah, just not good information, very out of date. if u watched.. always take D3 with K2 and never take Calcium without K2 (in fact Calcium is not a good thing to take unless u have to)
@@chrissmith7259 go to Google scholar and type k2 calcium D3 artery calcification . Just found this great researcher (if you too lazy to research) called dr Eric Eric Berg, he is a chiropractor, a very intelligent person, he researches a lot and add the sources. Type for example dr Eric berg k2 D3 or any topic , he has been the most accurate I found so far and has thousands of videos.
Masterkey thank you. I was on 'Dydrocal' (calcium) for some 12 years. Some 15 years ago I was driving from San Diego, Ca. to Palm Springs. This talk show radio guy was accusing the American doctors of poisoning the population with CALCIUM. As I was travelling through a mountainous area I was losing the radio contact. But nevertheless I stopped taking the calcium on my own. Lately is a lot on YuoTube about vitamin D. Out of dozens and dozens of shows that I listen to, this is only the second time that I hear that D3 should be taken with K2. And only for the first time I dead that calcium should be taken also with vitamin K2. So what is up? Ignorance or outright deceit?
@@paulsdancing5429 have a look into DHA (optimum quality cod liver oil) and magnesium. These are 2 other very essential nutrients we all require and don't get enough. I resume to watching videos of Dr Eric Berg (for english) now as he has been the best researcher on basically any topic, saves me time, he is on youtube
I don't understand the criticisms. We all know vitamin D should be taken with calcium and K2 but the point he is making that taking synethic vitamins in isolation (which is how most people take them) is either not effective or causes harm. Eat whole natural foods so there are cofactors for proper vitamin absorption where possible and supplement only for deficiency.
Watch out with taking calcium. It may harden bloodvessels and you probably get plenty calcium already. Just plenty of D3 plus K2 is probably better. Even 10.000 IU D3 plus 200mcg K2 daily, but without calcium. Oh, and magnesium and zink. Apparently basicly ALL people who get severely ill with the current worldwide affliction are low on 25 Hydroxy vit D. High dose D3 plus K2 might very well give plenty of protection. I wonder why governments are not interested in alternative treatments to prevent this disease.
@@DutchmanAmsterdam Why should "governments" be interested in, and/or responsible for your health? That is not the function of govt. Even if govts would be, or are interested in your health, that is never going to inspire you to be interested in your own health. ("You can lead a horse to water, but you cannot force him to drink") Believe me, we dont want govts which force us to do personal things which we should be free to do, or not do, for ourselves. That is the epitome of "freedom". Go to a maul, or a casino, in the US, and take a good look at the people there. Are they interested in their health?? Yet EVERY one of those people are (on some level) aware of what they are doing to themselves, and how to start to remedy the situation. The remedy has nothing to do with govt.
@@DutchmanAmsterdam that is the big burning question. In UK the drug that shall remain nameless is banned. WHY? The government sent its safety has not been proven. After 40 years and billionsof doses with only 26 deaths being attributed to it? Compare that to aspirin or paracetamol. But there is very little money to be made from generic drugs or vitamins. I wonder if that is why?
I feel its impossible to get all the supplments and minerals, etc, from just your diet cause you will have to eat all day and have a very well balance diet to get all you need. My mother took alot of different vitamins and lived a good healthy life till 92 yrs old. I followed her foot steps and I will be 70 yrs old and by fair do not look my age, and am not on any medication.
to sum up antioxidant section: more is not necessarily better. to sum up vitamin d section: stop wearing sunblock and go walk (don't drive) naked in the winter time.
Also, adding a little grass-fed beef or pasture-raised pork, chicken, and eggs won't hurt and will help the planet as these products come from farms that practice regenerative agriculture.
22:35 this is crazy information that I find hard to believe👆 I'm taking 6000-8000 mg vitamin c per day and I can now recover a lot faster from weight lifting workout while also feeling more energized. I don't supplement on A, beta-carotene or e but I eat a lot of carrots, orange, turmeric celery, broccoli, onions, ginger, garlic and so on, and by the way, he fails to point out that carrot consumption together with tobacco smoking, that's the real dangers of lung cancer and increased mortality from beta-carotene 👆
beta-carotene increased lung cancer but carrots, squash, and other yellow vegetables lowered it. Do not take vitamin c every day because you will become dependent. Take at least one day a week off. You seem to be doing a good job!
@@juliantreidiii I take vitamin C every day because I am already dependent. I don't think it would do much difference if I took 1 or 2 days off every week. The idea with vitamin c 3-4 times a day, is to increase blood plasma so that more nutritions will be carried around in your blood vessels, to increase supply to your cells.
I'm sure this doctor means well, but there is so much wrong with this presentation... For example, the section about calcium and vitamin D is mostly worthless. I'll address only that section, as follows: For healthy bones and healthy arteries and heart you cannot study just calcium alone, or D alone, or even just Ca and D together. The body uses MANY NUTRIENTS SYNERGISTICALLY!! The doctor mentioned there are indications that high calcium can lead to heart attack or stroke -- that is correct. Ditto if one gets extremely high doses of vit D alone. D is needed to absorb calcium into the blood -- BUT THEN VITAMIN K2 IS NEEDED TO GET THE CALCIUM INTO THE BONE WHERE IT BELONGS. If not enough K2, some of the calcium gets laid down in the arteries leading to atherosclerosis. Another factor in this: If there is insufficient Vit A, any excess calcium again tends to get laid down in the arteries (and other soft tissues). Vit A escorts excess calcium out of the body. Also vitamin C plays a role in proper bone maintenance -- for strong bones you need to make collagen (for connective tissue) and you cannot make collagen without vitamin C. So for healthy bones, arteries, and heart you need vitamins D3, K2, E, A, and C, (and more) all as a symphony. Why do medical people do trials focusing on one or two nutrients only at a time? Could it be due to conflict of interests? Could it be that if people are cured via nutrition they will need less drugs and medical interventions? Study what NUTRITIONISTS say about nutrition, not what the medical profession says about that subject. (Unfortunately even among nutritionists you'll find controversy... critical thinking required in all cases.)
Impossible for a layman to draw any conclusions. For every treatment advocated there will be a contrarian opinion. Both Big Pharma and the Holistic people are motivated by MONEY AND PROFIT. Good luck!
Large meta analysis and reviews now bringing into the question the role of supplemental calcium and or vit D in bone health in prevention or treatment of osteoporosis. Food sources are safe and needed. In that regard plant based sources have higher bioavailability and absorption.
I'm only into this 11 minutes so far, but I have to make a comment. The speaker says we shouldn't take a supplement if we are already healthy. Well, I've read that the majority of Americans are unhealthy metabolically, so I would think most Americans need supplements of some kind. Let's be honest, how many doctors will spend the time analyzing your labs to see any trends? They will only prescribe something if something is WAY out of whack, not just a little.
@@pattiday431 - We've been told that by the doctors who don't tow the company line, many who have been shunned and called "conspiracy theorists." Our MSM doctors don't really talk about low Vitamin D levels or other alternative therapeutics, they stick with "Get vaccinated."
Wow! This guy is Mr. pharmaceutical company number one. If you want to learn something of value I suggest seeing anything on RUclips by Dr. Levy or Dr. Lustig. You will be glad you did. They are both eminently qualified and of great value in their presentations. John L
D3 ptovides twice as much 25-hydroxy vit D in the blood than outdated, cheap D2. I am always amazed at doctors preference to give megadose D2 weekly or monthly while a smaller, daily dose of D3 gets better absorbed.
Umm hmmmm as you say it’s cheaper, less likely to get too much by ,mistake and oh yes it’s actually a vegan source of vit D. So very good reasons to use
Lol D2 halflife in the body is measured in days where as D3 is measured in months, doctors follow big pharma and big pharma doesn't earn money on people getting better by eating effective vitamins.
Prediction: studies will continue to come out saying supplements are either beneficial or detrimental to our health. It's impossible to definitively prove either way because it's impossible to completely control for the many other factors related to our health. Meanwhile, the researchers need something to do.
You must tell us where are your researches published in which journals. Who did those researches. Pharmacetical companies might like you. What is your CV (any epidemiology or medical statistics).
I Suggest everyone google “Number of deaths annually from correctly taken Pharmaceutical drugs. “ Then google “ Number of deaths annually from Vitamins” You will understand quickly. John L
Exactly... I turned around 3 serious disorders, one being A-fib, the least serious of the 3, with supplements. The pharma quacks - "we don't know what the cause is." At least they are honest. "But you'll need to take this drug for the rest of your life." They all want to use us as their personal ATM machine. So, to the 5 MDs that had no clue... I want my money back. Go into the journals - other than JAMA and you will excellent studies on nutrition reversing many disorders. Number one killer in the US - medical treatment.
Tina Hansen nutritional supplements.. supplements do work sometimes u have no choice to take supplements.. also mega doses do work these people that say less is more is bullshit
Science has shown vitamins and supplements cure all kinds of disease in animals. Thats why farmers use them all the time to cure their animals. In fact if they dont supplement in their feed, the animals die. .......but it seems to only not work on humans according to the "experts"...... lol....GTFOH
nonono you're not supposed to talk about drug risk lol, they make money on drugs! That podium he is standing on is made of drugs, drugs put food on the table! How dare you!
Good to know most nutrients come from food (where we should get it from) rather than the shortcut mentality that most people have. At worse, most people believe that if a little is good, a lot must be better. I use to think that way before I met my husband. He was a lecturer and veterinary surgeon. He doesn't put his animals on supplements unless they are deficient. They get their nutrition entirely from food. He himself is one of the fittest men I've ever met. He suggested I try stopping all the supplements I was taking and get my nutrition completely from food. I was against that idea but thought it should be okay to try for 2 to 3 months. The transformation was amazing. My skin became clear and supple (none of the natural supplements I took even came close to what a healthy diet has done for my skin). Inflammation went down. Blood test results came back even better than the results I had in 2011 when I was on lots of vitamins and minerals (yes even food based multivitamins). I use to take fiber supplements too, but don't need that anymore because I get so much fiber from food. It was challenging at first because cooking fresh food takes a lot of time, but now it has become a lifestyle habit - I MAKE time. Think of it as an investment in yourself. The sad part is, before relying entirely on food, I was already eating relatively healthy but still had heavy reliance on supplements and not gaining any positive effects from them.
The western medicine of supplement and allopathy had such negative connotation on indian AYURVEDIC that a cult society of western educated vs Indian AYURVEDIC (FOOD BASE NUTRITION) evolved ; ultimately govt effort to fund Ayurvedic has leased a new extension of life !

K3 is a synthetic variant of k2 though and no longer legal in human nutrition, but still used for animal feed. I've been making natto for a little while in order to get mine
The lipid hypothesis is just that…a hypothesis and has not been proven by a double blind study. Why then do most doctors as well as the AHA promote a low fat diet?
Thank you so much for a long complicated video. I ask one simple question how much it cost of vitamin D and vitamin C in comparison with Pharmaceutical prescribed drugs? You ask for double blind research? Who is going to pay for these researches which proved vitamin work well, all of doctors, hospital employee will out of job! Pharmaceuticals only pay for study to prove vitamin don’t work. I am scientist, I know there are so many wrong design, or wrong translate statistic info to get what benefit for the sponsors. Since I took vitamin from 2011, all of my doctors, dentist out of job from me. I’m sorry but my health is more important!
Federal funding for research on vitamin C has been mostly blocked for many decades and then they say "it isn't substantiated by [the kind of] research [we prefer]."
dano9008 I did experiment megadose vitamin C, D on myself because after many years follow treatments i got cancer, the cost of medical treatments for my health problem may destroy our finance future, nothing to lose I thought i’m going to die...why not try. Instead of dying, I cured all my chronic diseases and be healthy confidence with my life since 2011 and still go on.
This video isn't complicated in the least... As a scientist, as you claim, you should have been able to absorb this information with minimal effort. A single day in any university level biology class is more daunting..
Interestingly, most comments are in favour of supplementation and many people, myself included, have reversed medical conditions suffered for years either by learning on our own or consulting a professional other than an MD. $$$$🤫
Clear presentation of data study. Medicine really is a form a statistics these days. Two comments: there is the clear principle that is ignored in our culture, especially in politics: correlation is not causation. Here, correclation is called "observational study" Same thing. Correlation provides a hypothesis not a conclusion. Second: D3, it turns out is clearly related to the power of the COVID reaction. Dr. Tice shows a map where we do not get sufficient D3 in winter; hypothesis: infrections are higher in winter, so take D3 supplement.

My late fiance was an internist. He said that they taught nothing about nutrition and vitamins/supplements in medical school. He did his own research. I was smoking at the time. He believed in antioxidants and vitamins. He told me to take at least 500 mg every day because I had bruising. I took the vitamin C and I stopped bruising. This guy doesn't know what he's talking about.
um what? He states multiple positive vitamin outcomes, including that women who could become pregnant or are pregnant should take folate and that there's a vitamin D deficiency in Americans and everyone needs 600 IU's and older people should have 800 IU's a day.
@@RobVollat He doesn't know squat. If he did, he'd recommend getting serum testing to determine the amount of D needed. Health is derived from maximum amounts, not the minimum to keep you alive.
For 50 years now, we are getting fatter and sicker, and the Doctors are still in denial. The AG, dept tells us what to eat, they may be good at growing it, but that has not translated into good for us. The number of confounding issues in these clinical trials are huge. Every one on the internet has an opinion, and that is all it is. Maybe people should just be quiet.
The Caret study on beta carotene is from 1996. Are you kidding me, 24 years ago (20 from this speech)? Also, there were many doctors who stated the studies were extremely flawed, such as using synthetic forms instead of natural, also using toxic food coloring dyes inside the supplements, also relying on questionnaires asking people what they were eating in addition to the supplements in the past 8 years, etc...
Whenever a medical expert, whether it's this guy or any other mentions the word study, they need to start off with who FUNDED THE STUDY. I grew up, thinking that scientists where all looking for the truth. That belief has been shattered in so many ways, so many times since then.
Exactly. My daughter learned this when she began her first research paper (on education technology, not medicine). She told us the conclusion that was expected by the sponsor of the research before the work even began, it was that obvious.
Only shattered ? Totally destroyed. Only one week ago result on 900 studies having been checked on seriousness: 14 out of 900 could stand this examination...
Listen and listen to these , I think they can be useful , but the most important thing is mental healthy.. I was nursing 31 years . So many very healthy thin people die the most slow agonizing deaths , the body was so efficient that if faught disease to the hilt. Then less rigid health people go quickly .enjoying life to the last minute. I think quantity is not quality. The key is each person needs to live the life that gives them quality . And balance , spiritual growth is most important. I am really not convince we control it that much. Ecclesiastes , there is a time to be born and a time to die. I tend to think our exit time may be guided by a power greater than our own.
OK, so, I like most of his presentation, however, I don't agree with his assessment that there is minimal benefit of eating organic foods. There certainly has been an increase of cancers in the population since all these chemicals have been introduced. The incidence of cancer years ago when people grew their own food was clearly significantly lower. Just an observation.

Each supplement has an irrefutable role in the human body. I hope that this video does not stifle people's curiosity or resourcefulness about health.
When no correlation with Smoking or Vit D or Sunshine is given, the study is void to me. There must be more comprehensive studies to track 10 variables or more with Design of Experiments (DoE) Taguchi Methods applied to statistics. Do Nurses Smoke more in old studies?
Highly highly overdependent on so-called statistical trials. Not to say that legitimate trials are useless, how did humanity exist before the random controlled study???
Good talk, as supplements should be considered by strength and quality of evidence just as with prescription medication and diets. However, part of this talk demonstrates how pervasive the misunderstandings of p-values continue to be. Even this physician researcher misinterprets p-values. Beginning at 19:10, he states this p-value indicates "the probability of this happening due to chance..." P-values do not and cannot confer this. They are probability of the data given the null hypothesis being true. In other words, they rely on the null hypothesis. Also, the "probability of this data given my hypothesis" (p-value) is much different than the "probability of my hypothesis given this data." Also, p-values tell you nothing about effect size. Basically, it's discouraging that the overuse, misuse and misunderstandings of p-values exist even at a place of scientific excellence like UCSF.
People are going to Vitamins, yoga, meditation, massage, exercise, etc because people don't trust Big Pharma. People don't trust Big Pharma's high over priced drugs & the side effects.

There is a very big problem here: the body is so sophisticated that everything relies on a lot of different factors working together in the right balance. You give Ca++ but the body can't do something with it: other electrolytes are needed to work with at the right moment with the right ratio (he does not mention the ratios P/Ca++ and K+/Na++) insuline level (active at the bones) and insuline resistence (very common), other hormones, movements and strength exerted on the bones (use it or lose it) etc. I read once that low sodium intake can lead the body to destroy bone tissue to get the missing Na++. I was shocked!!

If very gigh quality and organic if possible then its good, after seeing the GP i was offered vitamins but they were pharmaceutical products and not easily digested if at all, for example vitamin D, thiamin again crap quality supposed to be taken with a source of vitamin c or there is no absorption thus eventually becoming deficient!

There is no good excuse for eating poorly. If you're still alive, you can and should change your diet to start improving your health. If you eat a balanced diet, you won't need supplements, and if you eat poorly, supplements won't save you from a lot of the issues accompanying a bad diet.

And this amount along with 5,000 iu vitamin D plus 30 mgs zinc is protecting me against colds (that I no longer get) and from covid. At 64, my skin no longer converts sunshine to vitamin D very well but I still get sunshine regularly. Those with serious cases of covid have low serum levels of D.
Humans, like animals, know instinctively what foods to eat. Or they did in their natural state in harmony with the planet. That is the problem with our materialistic evolution. We have lost so much in instinctual and spiritual ways of living.

You need to do your own research .NCBI site and you will find out that supplements work in proper dosage and good quality products.
He clarifies, not contradicts. There is a difference between observational or survey trials versus randomized trials. It has been a common theme to see that what we THOUGHT was truly based on observations has shown, by better science to be just the opposite of what we thought. Funny thing, our whole dietary guidelines are based on poorly controlled observational studies and not on real science-based evidence. Not contradicting, but clarifying. There is a hierarchy of science.

Lately is a lot on YuoTube about vitamin D. Out of dozens and dozens of shows that I listen to, this is only the second time that I hear that D3 should be taken with K2. And only for the first time I dead that calcium should be taken also with vitamin K2.
So what is up? Ignorance or outright deceit?
@@paulsdancing5429 have a look into DHA (optimum quality cod liver oil) and magnesium. These are 2 other very essential nutrients we all require and don't get enough. I resume to watching videos of Dr Eric Berg (for english) now as he has been the best researcher on basically any topic, saves me time, he is on youtube
I don't understand the criticisms. We all know vitamin D should be taken with calcium and K2 but the point he is making that taking synethic vitamins in isolation (which is how most people take them) is either not effective or causes harm. Eat whole natural foods so there are cofactors for proper vitamin absorption where possible and supplement only for deficiency.
Watch out with taking calcium. It may harden bloodvessels and you probably get plenty calcium already. Just plenty of D3 plus K2 is probably better. Even 10.000 IU D3 plus 200mcg K2 daily, but without calcium. Oh, and magnesium and zink.
Apparently basicly ALL people who get severely ill with the current worldwide affliction are low on 25 Hydroxy vit D.
High dose D3 plus K2 might very well give plenty of protection.
I wonder why governments are not interested in alternative treatments to prevent this disease.
@@DutchmanAmsterdam Really, why? - is it that hard to guess?
@@DutchmanAmsterdam Why should "governments" be interested in, and/or responsible for your health? That is not the function of govt.
Even if govts would be, or are interested in your health, that is never going to inspire you to be interested in your own health. ("You can lead a horse to water, but you cannot force him to drink")
Believe me, we dont want govts which force us to do personal things which we should be free to do, or not do, for ourselves. That is the epitome of "freedom".
Go to a maul, or a casino, in the US, and take a good look at the people there. Are they interested in their health?? Yet EVERY one of those people are (on some level) aware of what they are doing to themselves, and how to start to remedy the situation. The remedy has nothing to do with govt.

I feel its impossible to get all the supplments and minerals, etc, from just your diet cause you will have to eat all day and have a very well balance diet to get all you need.

I followed her foot steps and I will be 70 yrs old and by fair do not look my age, and am not on any medication.
This guy's info on Omega-3 benefits seriously needs updating.
Hello, please explain, is it not beneficial?
to sum up antioxidant section: more is not necessarily better.
to sum up vitamin d section: stop wearing sunblock and go walk (don't drive) naked in the winter time.
The angle of the earth will not allow you to manufacture Vitamin D north of Atlanta, even if naked at noon.
Sum up nutritional science: No money in it for big pharma so let's make every trial fail and get people on some real good statins!
Very little VitD from the sun in winter. Possibly need to supplement.
Also, adding a little grass-fed beef or pasture-raised pork, chicken, and eggs won't hurt and will help the planet as these products come from farms that practice regenerative agriculture.
22:35 this is crazy information that I find hard to believe👆
I'm taking 6000-8000 mg vitamin c per day and I can now recover a lot faster from weight lifting workout while also feeling more energized.
I don't supplement on A, beta-carotene or e but I eat a lot of carrots, orange, turmeric celery, broccoli, onions, ginger, garlic and so on, and by the way, he fails to point out that carrot consumption together with tobacco smoking, that's the real dangers of lung cancer and increased mortality from beta-carotene 👆
beta-carotene increased lung cancer but carrots, squash, and other yellow vegetables lowered it. Do not take vitamin c every day because you will become dependent. Take at least one day a week off. You seem to be doing a good job!
@@juliantreidiii I take vitamin C every day because I am already dependent. I don't think it would do much difference if I took 1 or 2 days off every week. The idea with vitamin c 3-4 times a day, is to increase blood plasma so that more nutritions will be carried around in your blood vessels, to increase supply to your cells.
Yes true with the smoking and beta carotene
I'm sure this doctor means well, but there is so much wrong with this presentation...
For example, the section about calcium and vitamin D is mostly worthless. I'll address only that section, as follows:
For healthy bones and healthy arteries and heart you cannot study just calcium alone, or D alone, or even just Ca and D together. The body uses MANY NUTRIENTS SYNERGISTICALLY!! The doctor mentioned there are indications that high calcium can lead to heart attack or stroke -- that is correct. Ditto if one gets extremely high doses of vit D alone.
D is needed to absorb calcium into the blood -- BUT THEN VITAMIN K2 IS NEEDED TO GET THE CALCIUM INTO THE BONE WHERE IT BELONGS. If not enough K2, some of the calcium gets laid down in the arteries leading to atherosclerosis.
Another factor in this: If there is insufficient Vit A, any excess calcium again tends to get laid down in the arteries (and other soft tissues). Vit A escorts excess calcium out of the body.
Also vitamin C plays a role in proper bone maintenance -- for strong bones you need to make collagen (for connective tissue) and you cannot make collagen without vitamin C.
So for healthy bones, arteries, and heart you need vitamins D3, K2, E, A, and C, (and more) all as a symphony.
Why do medical people do trials focusing on one or two nutrients only at a time? Could it be due to conflict of interests? Could it be that if people are cured via nutrition they will need less drugs and medical interventions?
Study what NUTRITIONISTS say about nutrition, not what the medical profession says about that subject. (Unfortunately even among nutritionists you'll find controversy... critical thinking required in all cases.)
Impossible for a layman to draw any conclusions. For every treatment advocated there will be a contrarian opinion. Both Big Pharma and the Holistic people are motivated by MONEY AND PROFIT. Good luck!

Large meta analysis and reviews now bringing into the question the role of supplemental calcium and or vit D in bone health in prevention or treatment of osteoporosis. Food sources are safe and needed. In that regard plant based sources have higher bioavailability and absorption.
Can't agree more!!!!!
Dont forget magnesium, it keeps your calcium moving and flowing
I'm only into this 11 minutes so far, but I have to make a comment. The speaker says we shouldn't take a supplement if we are already healthy. Well, I've read that the majority of Americans are unhealthy metabolically, so I would think most Americans need supplements of some kind. Let's be honest, how many doctors will spend the time analyzing your labs to see any trends? They will only prescribe something if something is WAY out of whack, not just a little.
This is a year after you commented. We've since been told that Americans are particularly low in vitamin D3 and K2 which is crucial for immune system.
@@pattiday431 - We've been told that by the doctors who don't tow the company line, many who have been shunned and called "conspiracy theorists." Our MSM doctors don't really talk about low Vitamin D levels or other alternative therapeutics, they stick with "Get vaccinated."

D3 ptovides twice as much 25-hydroxy vit D in the blood than outdated, cheap D2. I am always amazed at doctors preference to give megadose D2 weekly or monthly while a smaller, daily dose of D3 gets better absorbed.
what do you think about that?
Umm hmmmm as you say it’s cheaper, less likely to get too much by ,mistake and oh yes it’s actually a vegan source of vit D. So very good reasons to use
More difficult to overdose on d2 .
Lol D2 halflife in the body is measured in days where as D3 is measured in months, doctors follow big pharma and big pharma doesn't earn money on people getting better by eating effective vitamins.
Bolus doses are useless.

Prediction: studies will continue to come out saying supplements are either beneficial or detrimental to our health. It's impossible to definitively prove either way because it's impossible to completely control for the many other factors related to our health. Meanwhile, the researchers need something to do.
Many people are regaining their health through vitamin and mineral supplementation without toxicity.
You must tell us where are your researches published in which journals. Who did those researches. Pharmacetical companies might like you. What is your CV (any epidemiology or medical statistics).
I wonder if people taking vitamin supplements don't think they need to eat as carefully, so their diet counteracts any benefits?
Honestly yea often
Before taking anything there needs to be a few hundred year double blind study we can all then tear apart once it’s released.
I Suggest everyone google “Number of deaths annually from correctly taken Pharmaceutical drugs. “ Then google “ Number of deaths annually from Vitamins” You will understand quickly. John L
Good point
And how many deaths if clinical condition remains untreated?
Did you consider that?

Good to know most nutrients come from food (where we should get it from) rather than the shortcut mentality that most people have. At worse, most people believe that if a little is good, a lot must be better.
I use to think that way before I met my husband. He was a lecturer and veterinary surgeon. He doesn't put his animals on supplements unless they are deficient. They get their nutrition entirely from food. He himself is one of the fittest men I've ever met. He suggested I try stopping all the supplements I was taking and get my nutrition completely from food. I was against that idea but thought it should be okay to try for 2 to 3 months.
The transformation was amazing. My skin became clear and supple (none of the natural supplements I took even came close to what a healthy diet has done for my skin). Inflammation went down. Blood test results came back even better than the results I had in 2011 when I was on lots of vitamins and minerals (yes even food based multivitamins). I use to take fiber supplements too, but don't need that anymore because I get so much fiber from food. It was challenging at first because cooking fresh food takes a lot of time, but now it has become a lifestyle habit - I MAKE time. Think of it as an investment in yourself. The sad part is, before relying entirely on food, I was already eating relatively healthy but still had heavy reliance on supplements and not gaining any positive effects from them.

The Caret study on beta carotene is from 1996. Are you kidding me, 24 years ago (20 from this speech)? Also, there were many doctors who stated the studies were extremely flawed, such as using synthetic forms instead of natural, also using toxic food coloring dyes inside the supplements, also relying on questionnaires asking people what they were eating in addition to the supplements in the past 8 years, etc...
Whenever a medical expert, whether it's this guy or any other mentions the word study, they need to start off with who FUNDED THE STUDY. I grew up, thinking that scientists where all looking for the truth. That belief has been shattered in so many ways, so many times since then.
Exactly. My daughter learned this when she began her first research paper (on education technology, not medicine). She told us the conclusion that was expected by the sponsor of the research before the work even began, it was that obvious.

Good talk, as supplements should be considered by strength and quality of evidence just as with prescription medication and diets. However, part of this talk demonstrates how pervasive the misunderstandings of p-values continue to be. Even this physician researcher misinterprets p-values. Beginning at 19:10, he states this p-value indicates "the probability of this happening due to chance..." P-values do not and cannot confer this. They are probability of the data given the null hypothesis being true. In other words, they rely on the null hypothesis.
Also, the "probability of this data given my hypothesis" (p-value) is much different than the "probability of my hypothesis given this data."
Also, p-values tell you nothing about effect size.
Basically, it's discouraging that the overuse, misuse and misunderstandings of p-values exist even at a place of scientific excellence like UCSF.

For sure! I finally figured out how to stop the hives I was getting (never could find the cause). Vitamin C! Then I experimented with the amount and determined I need 3,000 mgs per day. And this amount along with 5,000 iu vitamin D plus 30 mgs zinc is protecting me against colds (that I no longer get) and from covid. At 64, my skin no longer converts sunshine to vitamin D very well but I still get sunshine regularly. Those with serious cases of covid have low serum levels of D.
@@OceanFrontVilla3 Very interesting. Just added another Vitamin C based on your post and reading more online. Thanks for the tip!
Vit c is amazing .intervenous Vit C completely took away all opiod withdrawal ...look it up its true....and Dr Pauling was right . This Dr is off base
everyone knows folic acid is barely metabolized and that methyfolate is needed by 40% of population or even folinic acid. This guy is an ignoramous.
A proper diet is all that is needed. Many ladies I know sail right thru menopause without any discomfort at all.
Not true. Vit d supplementation is typically needed.
And many you do not know don’t sail through. You have a sample of 10, 20, 100 people? That’s irrelevant
Humans, like animals, know instinctively what foods to eat. Or they did in their natural state in harmony with the planet. That is the problem with our materialistic evolution. We have lost so much in instinctual and spiritual ways of living.
These results don't make any sense. Nutrients are making us strong and healthy through our life with food but nowadays, the soil are depleted of these nutrients and that is reason why supplements are very important and he tells us that they don't have any benefit for us??? This guy is still a MD and he can't say without the board of medicine agreement that supplements work. It goes against the pharmaceutical business. You need to do your own research .NCBI site and you will find out that supplements work in proper dosage and good quality products.
Are you people sure that this guy is a real doctor ?
Vit D and covid-19!
I did
Too many uh's and um's in his speech. I couldn't even get through the 1st 10 minutes. Annoying.
Doc, don't take vitamins and minerals, I'll take mine!!!
He constantly contradicts himself. His intention is to create doubt by saying ummmhuuum, and "it's complicated. I don't believe him
And just when does he contradict himself. Make a few citations if they're so numerous as you claim..
He clarifies, not contradicts. There is a difference between observational or survey trials versus randomized trials. It has been a common theme to see that what we THOUGHT was truly based on observations has shown, by better science to be just the opposite of what we thought. Funny thing, our whole dietary guidelines are based on poorly controlled observational studies and not on real science-based evidence. Not contradicting, but clarifying. There is a hierarchy of science.
Didn't the tobacco scientists tell us tobacco is healthy? And for pregnant women too.. yep, calms you down.. BUT DON'T YOU DARE TAKE THOSE SUPPLEMENTS 🤣🤣🤣💰💰💰💰💰💰
@@OceanFrontVilla3 hahaha spot on!
Doc say's watch out for the side effects with that miniscule vitamin D dosage!
Which has side effects like better mood, less cancer, more energy and so on and so forth
Meanwhile he prescribes statins like candy, and you know you will get a taste of those effects.
And it's not better mood lol.
What does ummm mean?
Um a um a um um aaaah... ffs, learn public speaking, join toastmasters
Hard to listen to this with all his um a aaah's
Liars use those studders. In Canada we hear them from our idiot PM whenever he opens his mouth.

Oh, but his hair is so pretty! Look how long it is now!!!🙄🙄🙄🤫🤫🤫
Does this doctor recommend leaches too. Three types of lies: lies, damn lies, and statistics quoted by allopathic doctors.
Allopathetic doctors.
