Wow! I started having some scary health symptoms and decided to check my vitamin D levels. I was at 16!!!! Took 5,000 ui a day for 2 months and rechecked. I’m up to 31 and continuing to supplement with 5,000 ui a day. Will have another retest later on this month! Thanks for the video!!
So glad you got your Vitamin D levels tested and are continuing to check them! Adequate Vitamin D levels are so important.
@@DrSusanBrown hi I jist got my vitamin d3 tested twice this year.. I was tested back in June 141 nmol / 56.6 ng
I tested again this week I was 181 nmol/ 72 ng.. I was taking as most recent 7000-8000 iu daily with 100 mcg of k2
So now that I’m at a peak range how do I maintain it?
I’m 40 male 155 lbs
What were your symptoms because mine is 17 and I feel tired a lot and like I just want to sleep lol
@@katie0698 constant anxiety and panic attacks, super fatigued, low motivation and when I tried to jog or run my bones would ache (specifically my shins) haven’t had a panic attack since I brought my levels back to normal.
@@DrSusanBrown update.. got my most recent blood work and I’m up to 43! Super excited as I feel much better, my goal is to get to 50 soon!
All my Dr. Said is that my in a healthy range.So basically that doesnt answer what I need to know.Thank you Dr.Susan Brown for the video.I appreciate all your videos,except for the fact I cant hardly hear you!
My level is at 9! How much do you suggest and do you suggest I take it with vitamin k?
Hello! Dr. Brown typically recommends that people have a vitamin D level of 50-60 ng/mL. For every 1000 IU increase in the vitamin D you're taking, your score will go up around 10. Be sure to increase your vitamin D IU enough to get you to 50 or 60. As for vitamin K, Dr. Brown recommends taking 180-200 mcg of MK-7 per day.
Rest advice. Can I ask. My result was 83. How do I keep it there or even towards,100. What dosage for maintenance of 83 or higher? Bless you.
Great video🙏
I’m deficient and have been for some years. I am taking 1000 iu right now daily. I find if I take more my body doesn’t feel well.
Would this still raise my levels over time? I don’t know what else to do.
Mine is 21 ng/ml (54 nmol/l)
I am Bewteen 74-80 ng
So I don’t need to go much higher
But to maintain this it seemed I needed 6000-8000 iu
I don’t want to over due it or I under due it

How long does it take for the body to be depleted of Vitamin D?
Its depleating pretty fast. 2 months without strong sun or supplement will aproximatly half your levels (from 40 to 20 etc.) Even 1 month without anything can be 30-40% loss. When it gets really low, like 15ng/ML, futher depletion will go much slower.
@@endgamepyeah i had 150nmol/l at the start and two months later without taking it was at 70
I've got 99nmol UK which I think is 40 Ng ml is that right and is that enough I'm healthy 35 male Asian indian
Hi Mo,
Your calculation is correct. Typically, we recommend people to have vitamin D levels around 50 ng/mL. To learn more about vitamin D, check out our blog, "How much vitamin D should you take?": bit.ly/33zZIXp
Me levels are 27 range,currently taking 2,000 units vitamin d3 once a day..my bones ache mostly my legs for months,not sure if it's because my levels are low..how can I raise my levels to a higher level? And do you believe if once my levels are high this achy feeling i have will go away? Thanks!
Hi Puchipatas Patas, Dr. Brown answered your question in her Q+A video on Facebook which you can view here: facebook.com/betterbonesbetterbody/posts/10156327962028865
Mine Vitamin D is 118 😊 and I live in the UK
Isn't it vitamin d intoxication?
@@shubhamvibhuti No, I’m within the normal range just closer to the upper limit.
@@Juicingwithmaddy how much d3 do you take? Mine is 54 nmol/l, I'm also from the UK
@@AnthonyDuggan-t8i Oh cool! I was taking 10,000 IU.
@@Juicingwithmaddy thanks, do you take k2 with it?
My Dr tested me and my blood level is 4.6.He said to take 4,too a day. My old endocrinologist put me on 50,000a week and 5000 a day. Is my Dr doing enough?
lauren bahr 50000 a week is around 7000 a day.
@@DrSusanBrown My Vit D is now 3.7. I've just decided to let it go. I have so many more problems. Half my foot is amputated and I believe that is a lot of my problems. Saw my orthopedic surgeon yesterday. He says my knees ar majorly messed up
Having scope to them in February. The pain is excruciating. I fell yesterday and hurt my shoulder and neck. So I'm putting my vit D on the back burner for now. Thank you so much for responding. I appreciate it
. Have a Merry Christmas.
lauren bahr Majority of your problems that you're facing could be coz you have almost no vit D in your body. Vit D strengthens your immune system and therefore help your body fight off diseases. You gotto fix your vit D before fixing anything else.
@@eliorinfologies5020 what about d3 supplement increases calcium thru intestines into blood by 25 times! RUclips Rhonda Patrick MD tells Joe rogan d3 supplement increases calcium absorption by something crazy like 40%!
Thomas levy cardiologist says too little vit d kill you, too much vit d kill you!
How get vit d3 supplement levels u without flooding coronary arteries, all arteries everywhere, liver, kidneys with calcium???
@@radiojoehead Very Simple, through SUN. You never Overdose on that. 30 mins of Daily Sun Light and you are up again. Use Nature first and then hop onto the Pills.
I just got some labs done at the Cleveland Clinic. It was discovered that my Vitamin D was at 23.2.
The doctor had called me and suggested I immediately begin taking 1000iu a day. Wouldn't this be almost not enough? Hope to hear back from you!
I have been taking 6000IU for the last 5 months and my levels were tested last week and were only 33.7ng/ml.
@@thmphll but what were they before taking that?
@@markv2012Never had it checked, but I think their 10ng raise per 1000IU/day is a little off as I should be much much higher.
@@thmphll brother what were your level of vitamin D before starting vitamin d supplement
@@allaboutentertainment939 No idea as I have never had it tested before, but I started taking 2000 a day in march of 2020 then upped it to 6000 a day around September of 2020 and the test was in January 2021.
I take 40,000 IU every day roughly. Sometimes every other day. My level is at 78.
That's great!
@Geovany Franco There must be something going on here, your body is not absorbing the Vitamin D and there could be several reasons for this.
@Geovany Franco She's not your personal doctor. Stop acting like a child. But since you asked, take your Vit. D with K2 and Magnesium. That will help absorption.
@Geovany Franco That’s inaccurate. My levels were 19 ng/ml back in May. Started supplementing with 5,000iu / day plus K2 and my levels have to risen to 45 ng/ml. And I’m out in the sun maybe a total of 10 minutes per day with nothing but my face exposed.
@Geovany Franco Yeah, science is a placebo effect. Good one. Lol!
I got a 8 smh
Hi Victor, with this level of 8, you might consider taking 5,000 IU of Vitamin D. This should get you around the recommended 50-60 ng/mL level.
