I was in the kitchen a few weeks ago making something to eat out of nowhere I got dizzy it felt like my head was wobbling around in a circle and my body was perfectly still it felt very weird I thought I was going to have a stroke I went to the Dr 2 days ago for my appointment and he said I was very deficient in vitamin D if I remember right it was like 7 or so he prescribed me vitamin D3 5000 hope it helps me with a lot of bad symptoms can't sleep feel bad all the time no energy headaches all the time
@@mikec6014 5000iu is pretty low. My Vitamin D level was 12 and the normal is about 22-25. My Dr prescribed me 50 000iu which is just 1 tablet a week. It absolutely helped me, zero symptoms for months. Check in with your Dr for a higher dose cos 7 is extremely low
I went for 1 1/2 years to doctors (yes, I said Doctors with an “s”) NEVER checking my Vitamin D level and I was finally told it’s Rheumatoid Arthritis. I said, WHAT? How did you come to that conclusion? I felt I did not receive any real answer as to why this conclusion, felt like it was a guess. I was told I needed to get on Methotrexate. I said, HOLD UP! After 1.5 yrs you all of a sudden come to this conclusion? I feel that you’re guessing. I need to do some research, maybe get a second opinion. The doc then said, YOU need to take this serious. I replied, I AM!!! Doctor then said, if you don’t start treating this, you will be in a wheelchair within 10 years. OMG, you have got to be kidding me who says that to someone? I replied, I went this long (1 1/2 yrs and six doctors) we can wait another month or so until I get second opinion and do my own research. I didn’t take the methotrexate…., I researched called my general practitioner, at the appointment I asked, did anybody ever check my Vitamin D level? Because thinking back I am seeing a pattern of my aches and pains, stiffness, etc. it starts around Nov and by January/February/March I am at my worse and then April/May feeling a little better and then the summer months, I think maybe it’s all in my head and I am nuts. I then told the Doc I believe I am at my BEST in the summer because of the sun. He checked my Vitamin D level, guess what, it was LOW, REAL LOW and that was in the beginning of June. I got myself on Vitamin D3 and never looked back, get levels checked just to make sure I am taking enough or not too much. I am healed! One last thing, it was 10 years ago this month I was told if you don’t take methotrexate you will be in a wheelchair in 10 years…, FYI, I am not even close to that happening, LOL. My Birthday is next week, 61 years young! Thank you Doctor Berry for your informative channel!
At age 35 I was diagnosed with osteo arthritis and, like you, was told I'd be in a wheelchair by 40. I'll be 80 next month and apart from.occasional twinge am in perfect health. At the time a neighbour recommended I take fish oil and vitamin E, which I did. 😅
I live in FL and am in health care. The number of people with low but D in FL astounds me since we are the sunshine state. I’ve never had low D. I’m always outside and I do take supplements along with magnesium and calcium. High grade fish oil 2400 mg with CoQ10. Stay active. Do not sit in front of a tv all day. It’s dangerous to your body.

I’m 59 and have suffered with all these symptoms mentioned for well over ten years !!!!! After being diagnosed with Moderate Osteoporosis, Arthritis, Fibromyalgia and questionable higher Blood Pressure & Blood Sugars, I only recently just checked my latest blood level numbers, plus the 5yrs prior. I was never told anything regarding said, but discovered, while still in “The Normal Range”,… that my Ferritin & Vitamin D levels were way in the low bottom end of our scale here in Ottawa Canada 😚 So I was more than pissed/annoyed, and have since started supplementation for both… After only one month, I already feel a good 75% stronger/better 🤗 So my Question to y’all is: What dose of Vitamin D3k2 is acceptable without being toxic, and how long before I could just coast @ a daily lower dose !?
I fell down stairs, tore my shouoder up, severed muscles, ligaments & tendons. The muscle in the back side of my arm was wadded up just above the backside of my elbow And my arm was Out Of Socket. I was outside of the city with no phone, all alone. By the time I recovered enough to get back to my doctor and went in. After I told them what had happened, the FIRST thing they said to me was "You're Not here for Pain Medicine are you?" I said hell, that would be a start. I got 20 pills that made me sick. The Doctor did not touch me. I finally got in to see an orthopedic surgeon, got an mri which showed all the damage. The doctor called and said your insurance said you dont have insurance. I called to make my 4th insurance premium payment for the year and they said, we dont show you have insurance. I said well, I paid it. I called the bank. Aetna had put all 3 premiums back in my bank account after getting the bill for the MRi showing I Had to have surgery. I finally got a letter saying they would pay for it if I had had the syrgery before the date I received that letter. How do you have a retroactive surgery? My arm was Out Of Socket for 2½ years before it jammed back in one day. No one helped me. I can not have anything for pain. I would have been better off going to a Country Veterinarian. I had zero surgery, zero pain meds. It ruined my life! Im still in pain. Aetna ruined my life.

When C19 hit, we were told to stay indoors, the exact opposite of what should've been recommended. Then we were told to take the "safe and effective" jab, which is anything BUT safe and effective. Why? Because big pharma cannot make a profit on sunlight. Do not trust big pharma, mainstream medicine, MSM.

Thank you dr Berry for your valuable information! I heard something very interesting on a talk with Dr Paul Mason , he says the best time to be in the sun is when the shadow you cast is about the same length as you are tall, at that time a half an hour is ample exposure ...
Amen doc Ken Berry. I agree whole heartedly. I also need to get out in that sun 🌞 for the sun vitamin ☀️ of D3 !!! Thanks for your natural based news reports......🌞
I just got my blood work done and my vitamin D is at a 12! They said minimum should be at like a 30. Also been feeling depressed and anxious a lot more. I got antidepressants prescribed but i havent took them yet. I think im going to try to skip the antidepressants and start taking the vitamins everyday and work out a little more. Just dont want to get on something i will have to ween off of later
I eat cod liver in a tin , 120 grams . It comes with cod liver oil , is not rancid . It’s made in Island , has lots of Vit D . The Nordic people were eating codliver for centuries and suffered no Vit D problems. One tin lasts 2 days, it is also high in omega 3 …. My mum is 96 and was eating the same codliver from Island for several decades , every day …no dementia whatsoever. Still doing crossword puzzle.
When I was a kid mom gave me cod liver oil. I loved it. Fast forward 40+ years. I bought some and went for a tablespoon. Ohhh ick. I love sardines though in oil. ( After a fishing trip, I was the kid that had dibbs on the fish eggs.)

Ah, man! The pain is SO real and bad! I also have a permanent spinal fracture with no idea how I fractured it - so this makes sense to me. I have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and it sounds like Vit D us super important to us because our bodies cannot heal well already. Thank you for this video.
Be sure to get your levels up to 80- most drs don’t know anything about vit d… but all your pain will stop but no reason to take months- do mega doses with vit k2 and magnesium
I’m soooo happy I’m on a supplement now!!!! I can’t wait to feel better! I finally have some answers and I knew what was wrong before I mentioned it to my doctor! Thank GOD! I’m so excited!
I live in uk so the sun is a rare thing here, even now in July it's cloudy and dark and raining all the time, only 16 C, more like autumn weather, the only thing with vitamin d supplements is they always have vegetable capsules, will this ruin my Carnivore diet?
I suddenly started having pretty bad fatigue over a week ago. I have hypothyroidism already and was thinking it was out of range or maybe low on iron. Got blood test back today and vitamin D was 19! I sat in sun today about 12 minutes and drank milk. Dr hasn’t got back with me yet. Last time it was low, she prescribed those strong vitamin D. Can’t wait to take it because I’m tired of having no energy. My thyroid and iron was normal by the way.
Why would you wait? Just go get some D3 at the drugstore right away. You don’t need a doctor’s prescription. Be sure to take K2 and magnesium as well, in order for the D3 to work properly.
My doctor found low D via blood work. Prescribed D2. When I went back I asked why D2 not D3. She silently changed it. (She pushes vegetarianism.) Not my doctor anymore.
I eat 3 eggs everyday and work in and outdoors and been taking D3 for 2 years prescribed by my Dr. Which I don't understand because I ate Vit D rich whole foods long before that. I've suffered with arthritis in hip and back really bad for 6 years. Now my legs ache all over most days.
I started getting symptoms of seronegative arthritis back in December. I started taking vitamin D3 since it was indicated that I was deficient. It's made so much difference that my pain went away, my mood and libido improved. I'm still very tired but I'll get there.
I have (UC) inflammatory arthritis and popped a few (5) vitd3 (635% RDA each) and it was like a miracle drug. All my little aches and pains seemed to almost instantaneously disappear. It was amazing. I’m a physician and I realize Vitaminosis can occur with the fat soluble vitamins, but it really was an invigorating night and day difference. Now I can just take normal doses and get labs checked periodically.
Dr. Ken Berry This is only my opinion and it is what I do ! A good way to know if you are low in vitamin D is to take your PH level with PH paper that you can buy at a health food store but it is not available at drug stores! Why don't drug stores sell it ? Why does OHIP ( in Canada ) not cover the cost of the vitamin D test? If your PH is around 7.2 that is good and if it is 6.2 or less you have a serious illness or are developing one! If your PH is good that also means your immune system is good as well ! If I take my PH level a few days in a row and it is 6.5 I use another method to get it to go up as much as 3/4 of a point overnight ! When I do this method it is more like a jump start and I only do that once in a while ! My PH level is stable now and it is always around 7.0 or higher! I take vitamin D3 and calcium with magnesium but 2 parts calcium to one part magnesium is VERY IMPORTANT ! I would not take one without the other! Coral calcium is best but only if it is marine harvested! Unlike drugs that have bad side effects my only side effect has been good health ! I am not a Doctor but I have spent about 5000 hours doing my own research to find out what I think is the answer to good health ! Cancer does not scare me ! I actually think a virus can be much harder to get rid of! If I had an extra 10 million dollars I would do a case study on what I believe to be true! There is a lot more but I don't want to write a book !
@@jewelofwisdom8279 Any coral calcium is good as long as it is MARINE HARVESTED ! I just use the Walmart Jamesons or there no name brand of Calcium with magnessium for around $10 a bottle of pills and I use it to help maintain my PH level ! The goal in my opinion is to achieve a stable PH level that may vary week to week from say 6.5 to an 8.0 ! I would not let my PH level go over 8.0 for more than a couple days but I dont consider that to be a problem and if you have a stuborn virus it could be a good thing but not longer than a couple days ! It can take months to get your PH level up but once you are stable you should check your PH maybe once a month ! I am not a Doctor or a health food expert and I only know what works for me ! I always take my PH in the morning before I have anything to eat or drink ! If you are trying to get your PH level higher you need to take your PH every morning for the first couple weeks to monitor how it is doing ! Maybe once every couple weeks for a month and then once you are stable maybe once a month ! Hope this helps !
I always wondered what it means if you don't ever show visible bruising at all? I used to bruise when I was a kid, but I can have hit or hit something pretty hard in just about any area that you would normally bruise and it will become swollen and tender but I don't remember having an actual visible bruise in the past 10 years.
Sometimes the body doesn't store what it doesn't need. Fair-skinned people in cold climates usually don't need vitamin D supplements. Too much of a vitamin can often cause similar symptoms to a deficiency. We should perhaps tread with caution when it comes to supplements.
It is very difficult and uncommon to have vitamin D3 toxicity. Most people are deficient. Doctors fear monger toxicity so much, when in reality over 50% of North American population is deficient.
My doctor prescribed 100 iu of vitamin D2 per week. I also have hypothyroidism and hyper parathyroidism. Plus psoriatic arthritis. I have had fatigue since high school and I’m 67. What can I do? I’m gaining weight due to a constant lack of energy and aches and pains.
This is crazy man.. I fractured my rib from twisting my body working under a car dash like 9 months ago and it shouldn't have happened.. I work inside all day almost every day, I have the fatigue. I told my primary doctor, they did blood work and saw nothing wrong. They didn't even test my vitamin D levels. Just last week I requested it be done and they go oh yeah we can add that. I'm at 28, which seems low, who knows what I was at when I fractured the rib. Just blows my mind how many in the medical field I've come across and none said to check my vitamin D levels. One said go to a bone density doctor. I'm gonna have to get another pcp.
Mines came back extremly low from years of no milk( milk allergies) also was prescribed supplements......I've had 3 fractures so hes telling the truth......
Hold on. My doctors told me we do not actually feel pain in the bones?! I complained of a deep pain in my legs, feeling like my bones were going to explode, and asked if this was related to my bone density level being a bit low (proven with a dexa scan). They said unless I fractured something it’s not actually a pain in the bones, it’s only muscular. And that conditions like osteopenia and osteoporosis do not feel painful except in the joints and surrounding muscles. True?
Depends on age and location - much easier to supplement D but there are still advantages to sunshine when possible- some I’m sure we don’t even know about but red light is known
I have OA in my joints so it aches. I take all the supplements you mentioned and I don’t really have any of the other signs and symptoms. I do use Tiger Balm for aches and pains in my joints and it helps tremendously. I also do yoga for 30 minutes and ride my road bike.
i had very low vitamin D after going through Dengue fever. all these sympthoms. The family doctor did nothing. i found out after 2 years of suffering that i have very low D vitamin levels. i had to take 50.000IU for a year every day! Now its normalized
I am on my fourth day of carnivore and my hip pain (which lasted a year and was making me consider going to an orthopaedic surgeon) is GONE. I will add the vit D3+K2+magnesium. The magesium helps the other 2 to work. Greetings from South Africa
I wonder if there's a difference in vitamin D absorption from the sun, when our cells are saturated with PUFA's or Saturated fats. There has to be something to this.
The other symptom of really low levels of vitamin D is vertigo

When C19 hit, we were told to stay indoors, the exact opposite of what should've been recommended. Then we were told to take the "safe and effective" jab, which is anything BUT safe and effective. Why? Because big pharma cannot make a profit on sunlight. Do not trust big pharma, mainstream medicine, MSM.
I was very fatigued. . Told the doctor I love sleep. She checked it. I started taking d3 and Cod liver oil capsules.
And also keep away from The suntan lotion..
Apparently there are more skin cancer cases than ever, despite (or because of?) the prolific use of sunscreen. Makes you wonder...
I recently looked into the common ingredients of sunscreen lotion. Its a house of horrors list of toxic chemicals - blocking vitamin D is the least if it!!
@@janetblanc7658all these skin care companies are bogus anyway. Skin colour is normal and shouldnt be treated like some kind of disease unlessn its some rash
I have all these symptoms.Will go get vitamin D3.Thanks Doctor.
d3 with k2
I take a D3-K2 vitamin everyday!
Dont forget some magnesium for that. Research has shown magnesium helps with the transport.
How much vit D d0 you take? How much K2?
Anyone know how much to take??
@@Dee-ee3lpHi Dee. Vit D3 5000Ui, K2(mk7) 100mcg, Magnesium 500mg… all three daily. Cheers.
@@Dee-ee3lpyou need blood test
I have a vitamin D, on 231 !. And in my country Denmark, a normal level, is considered to be, between 50-160 !.
My own personal view on D vitamin D is….take all you need, as long as you dont feel worse by taking it !
@@karinaninkahjortholt4667 you can overdose on vitamin D... A man in the UK recently died because of it , and I accidentally had toxic level. Please be careful.
I’m a redhead. We are well known for burning. Also my lineage runs heavy with melanoma. I gotta go for the supplement. 💊
I've heard the carnivore diet with organ meats included can allow even the most sensitive to get plenty of sun without burning!
@@ianstuart5660 I’m a fan of the carnivore diet, and have even moved to ketovore this month! But this claim sounds like bunk to me. I haven’t heard it from a reliable source, much less any research on it.
@Fiery154 Could be bunk but who knows. I was only repeating some anecdotal evidence I've heard!
I live in the high desert of Texas. I’m 53. I take vitamin D3 and I make myself lay half naked on a lounge chair everyday for a minimum of 10 minutes. In addition to watering my garden and greenhouse. Getting sun and a significant amount of vitamin D has changed my life. Plus carnivore diet.
I have heard that if you have hearing ringing in your ears at night its a D3 deficiency
Vitamin D goes together with magnesium as magnesium activates vitamin D
Totally accurate, we do have to be careful here in Queensland, Australia though.
Be sure has K2 so calcium gets to bone
How much D3
How much k2
Anyone know???
Thanks

I absolutely love you Sir for caring enough to share your most😮 beneficial knowledge
Thank you dr Berry for your valuable information! I heard something very interesting on a talk with Dr Paul Mason , he says the best time to be in the sun is when the shadow you cast is about the same length as you are tall, at that time a half an hour is ample exposure ...
Amen doc Ken Berry. I agree whole heartedly. I also need to get out in that sun 🌞 for the sun vitamin ☀️ of D3 !!! Thanks for your natural based news reports......🌞
Someone really needs to inform DOCTORS!
they wont care. they will even stop seeing you.
I eat liver.
I just got my blood work done and my vitamin D is at a 12! They said minimum should be at like a 30. Also been feeling depressed and anxious a lot more. I got antidepressants prescribed but i havent took them yet. I think im going to try to skip the antidepressants and start taking the vitamins everyday and work out a little more. Just dont want to get on something i will have to ween off of later
Get vit D to 80
Check Dr.Eric Berg's youtube on vitamins D3 & K
Psoriasis is another symptom of low vitamin D. As is other autoimmune issues like alopecia arieta.
"Get more sun" Seattle has left the chat 😂
I was bed ridden for 8 months do to low vitamin D
@Jennie Adams yes that was in 2008 they thought I had lupus. I couldn't walk up steps even .My bones were soft
@Jennie Adams me to 💞
Good lord! I didn't know that could be a thing these days 😮
No judgement, but that sounds like a remarkable & unusual case of self-neglect.
@@_Solaris well I have a kidney defect and I don't absorb the vitamin D correctly. Sorry you judge before knowing facts .

You neglected to mention the most important part of your comment.
Context, Laney. Context.
I eat cod liver in a tin , 120 grams . It comes with cod liver oil , is not rancid . It’s made in Island , has lots of Vit D . The Nordic people were eating codliver for centuries and suffered no Vit D problems. One tin lasts 2 days, it is also high in omega 3 …. My mum is 96 and was eating the same codliver from Island for several decades , every day …no dementia whatsoever. Still doing crossword puzzle.
When I was a kid mom gave me cod liver oil. I loved it. Fast forward 40+ years. I bought some and went for a tablespoon. Ohhh ick. I love sardines though in oil. ( After a fishing trip, I was the kid that had dibbs on the fish eggs.)
What brand?
@@user-ii4zf5iq3t OFFICER , Smoked Cod Liver , from fresh WILD cod-in own oil . Product of Iceland . Here in Australia it is $ 5 .00 a tin , 120 grams . I AND MUM DID NOT GET ANY CLOT SHOT FOR A CERTAIN VIRUS , AND NEVER HAD AS MUCH AS A SNIFFLE THROUGH OUT THE PLANDEMIC. MY DAUGHTER DID GET THE CLOT SHOT AND DID GET COVID VERY BAD .

Yes i want to know what brand as well...please...
Hi me and my mom if I’m following you for a very long time thank you for all you do both you and your wife are an inspiration to many people opening peoples eyes and helping them get a hold of their own health instead of leaving it to Buncha (practicing )doctors
Nice to see your videos again hope to see more
thank you

MD told me decades ago to take vitamin D. He was right.
Ah, man! The pain is SO real and bad! I also have a permanent spinal fracture with no idea how I fractured it - so this makes sense to me. I have Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and it sounds like Vit D us super important to us because our bodies cannot heal well already.
Thank you for this video.
Just got blood test back and I’m 12.8 lol super low! I have all the symptoms, I thought were fibromyalgia! Working with my dr now for best treatment ❤
Be sure to get your levels up to 80- most drs don’t know anything about vit d… but all your pain will stop but no reason to take months- do mega doses with vit k2 and magnesium
None of these since carnivore. 3 years.
Watching this while lying outside house sunbathing 💃
You just described MDS !
I’m soooo happy I’m on a supplement now!!!! I can’t wait to feel better! I finally have some answers and I knew what was wrong before I mentioned it to my doctor! Thank GOD! I’m so excited!
I live in uk so the sun is a rare thing here, even now in July it's cloudy and dark and raining all the time, only 16 C, more like autumn weather, the only thing with vitamin d supplements is they always have vegetable capsules, will this ruin my Carnivore diet?
Great information on the need for vitamin D3. 👍
If you're on a GOOD diet you need less than the RDA .
I suddenly started having pretty bad fatigue over a week ago. I have hypothyroidism already and was thinking it was out of range or maybe low on iron. Got blood test back today and vitamin D was 19! I sat in sun today about 12 minutes and drank milk. Dr hasn’t got back with me yet. Last time it was low, she prescribed those strong vitamin D. Can’t wait to take it because I’m tired of having no energy. My thyroid and iron was normal by the way.
Why would you wait? Just go get some D3 at the drugstore right away. You don’t need a doctor’s prescription. Be sure to take K2 and magnesium as well, in order for the D3 to work properly.
Exactly
Thank you sir great information, 👍
Super advice Thanks 👍
Not sleeping is another one thanks Dr Berry you're the best ❤
If you live in Oregon, you need a supplement.
My mood has improved amazingly since just starting some D3 supplementation ....it's so amazingly satisfying
My doctor found low D via blood work. Prescribed D2. When I went back I asked why D2 not D3. She silently changed it. (She pushes vegetarianism.) Not my doctor anymore.
I eat 3 eggs everyday and work in and outdoors and been taking D3 for 2 years prescribed by my Dr. Which I don't understand because I ate Vit D rich whole foods long before that. I've suffered with arthritis in hip and back really bad for 6 years. Now my legs ache all over most days.
Wonderful!! I feel like death. Everyone of these list just check every box.
Just what I needed to hear thank you
Thank you, Dr. Berry.
I started getting symptoms of seronegative arthritis back in December. I started taking vitamin D3 since it was indicated that I was deficient. It's made so much difference that my pain went away, my mood and libido improved. I'm still very tired but I'll get there.
You forgot vertigo
Thank you Doc!!🥰
What’s an appropriate range dosage for D3?
You need A LOT more than they say.... look it up.... and remember it dont get well absorbed without K2
Totally, every one is different but I take 5000 a day and more in the winter
I have (UC) inflammatory arthritis and popped a few (5) vitd3 (635% RDA each) and it was like a miracle drug. All my little aches and pains seemed to almost instantaneously disappear. It was amazing. I’m a physician and I realize Vitaminosis can occur with the fat soluble vitamins, but it really was an invigorating night and day difference. Now I can just take normal doses and get labs checked periodically.
You can't get your levels of Vit. D up that fast- If you research it, it takes months & months, if your deficient.
Thanks Doc.
Thanks Berry...from VA. USA
Thank you Dr
Dr. Ken Berry This is only my opinion and it is what I do ! A good way to know if you are low in vitamin D is to take your PH level with PH paper that you can buy at a health food store but it is not available at drug stores! Why don't drug stores sell it ? Why does OHIP ( in Canada ) not cover the cost of the vitamin D test? If your PH is around 7.2 that is good and if it is 6.2 or less you have a serious illness or are developing one! If your PH is good that also means your immune system is good as well ! If I take my PH level a few days in a row and it is 6.5 I use another method to get it to go up as much as 3/4 of a point overnight ! When I do this method it is more like a jump start and I only do that once in a while ! My PH level is stable now and it is always around 7.0 or higher! I take vitamin D3 and calcium with magnesium but 2 parts calcium to one part magnesium is VERY IMPORTANT ! I would not take one without the other! Coral calcium is best but only if it is marine harvested! Unlike drugs that have bad side effects my only side effect has been good health ! I am not a Doctor but I have spent about 5000 hours doing my own research to find out what I think is the answer to good health ! Cancer does not scare me ! I actually think a virus can be much harder to get rid of! If I had an extra 10 million dollars I would do a case study on what I believe to be true! There is a lot more but I don't want to write a book !
Thank you, makes sense! What coral calcium
brand do you recommend and although you state it is preferred, what brand of supplements do you find best?
@@jewelofwisdom8279 Any coral calcium is good as long as it is MARINE HARVESTED ! I just use the Walmart Jamesons or there no name brand of Calcium with magnessium for around $10 a bottle of pills and I use it to help maintain my PH level ! The goal in my opinion is to achieve a stable PH level that may vary week to week from say 6.5 to an 8.0 ! I would not let my PH level go over 8.0 for more than a couple days but I dont consider that to be a problem and if you have a stuborn virus it could be a good thing but not longer than a couple days ! It can take months to get your PH level up but once you are stable you should check your PH maybe once a month ! I am not a Doctor or a health food expert and I only know what works for me ! I always take my PH in the morning before I have anything to eat or drink ! If you are trying to get your PH level higher you need to take your PH every morning for the first couple weeks to monitor how it is doing ! Maybe once every couple weeks for a month and then once you are stable maybe once a month ! Hope this helps !
Been taking D3 and zinc since covid started. Supposed to be good for your immune system also.
Thank You 😊 You just described me. I am taking D3 with K but I don’t notice any difference.
Not enough....look up Dr. Berg for details
Double up or triple
Love ya Dr Berry ! ❤❤❤
Hello Doctor:
What is the best D3 supplement brand you would recommend?
Thank Dr. Berry.
I always wondered what it means if you don't ever show visible bruising at all? I used to bruise when I was a kid, but I can have hit or hit something pretty hard in just about any area that you would normally bruise and it will become swollen and tender but I don't remember having an actual visible bruise in the past 10 years.
Sometimes the body doesn't store what it doesn't need. Fair-skinned people in cold climates usually don't need vitamin D supplements.
Too much of a vitamin can often cause similar symptoms to a deficiency. We should perhaps tread with caution when it comes to supplements.
It is very difficult and uncommon to have vitamin D3 toxicity. Most people are deficient. Doctors fear monger toxicity so much, when in reality over 50% of North American population is deficient.
Thank you I NEEDED to hear this do I have to take anything else to make sure my body absorbs the vitaminD3???
God bless you, Dr. Ken. I'm doing great, 2 years into low carb. However, coffee enima's? We gonna table that one. My best to your family, sir.
Coffee enemas! Excellent choice..be prepared for the heavy metal to come out. It's wild !
Good advice!
I take 300 micrograms daily with cod liver oil. i think I need to increase that dosage, because my wounds take forever to heal
Get to 80ng
I take 10k D3 and K2 every day unjabbed and have been and staying very healthy
Awesome!!!
This is so true.
Thank you
I have almost all these symptoms including breaking a bone and they put me on high D2 not D3. I’m asking about this on Friday when I go in.
Love the BCG Doc😀
Yup a blood test won't pick it up. You need to do a vitamin deficiency test separately
Almost 50% of Americans are deficient. It is awful.
I think number one should be heart palpitations I've my fair share of that it's no joke.
Doc the subtitles are overlapping and we can’t read anything
My doctor prescribed 100 iu of vitamin D2 per week. I also have hypothyroidism and hyper parathyroidism. Plus psoriatic arthritis. I have had fatigue since high school and I’m 67. What can I do? I’m gaining weight due to a constant lack of energy and aches and pains.
Thank you❤
Help! Saw video saying vitamin D3 is same ingredient in D-Con mouse poison. What kind is safe?
This is crazy man.. I fractured my rib from twisting my body working under a car dash like 9 months ago and it shouldn't have happened.. I work inside all day almost every day, I have the fatigue. I told my primary doctor, they did blood work and saw nothing wrong. They didn't even test my vitamin D levels. Just last week I requested it be done and they go oh yeah we can add that. I'm at 28, which seems low, who knows what I was at when I fractured the rib. Just blows my mind how many in the medical field I've come across and none said to check my vitamin D levels. One said go to a bone density doctor. I'm gonna have to get another pcp.
Thanks
I have a severe vitamin D deficiency and they put me on 50,000 IU weekly of vitamin D2, so should i be taking D3 instead??
Yes. If you take lots of D2 you might get kidney stones.( they prescribe the D2) i took it too ☹️
Mines came back extremly low from years of no milk( milk allergies) also was prescribed supplements......I've had 3 fractures so hes telling the truth......
Hold on. My doctors told me we do not actually feel pain in the bones?! I complained of a deep pain in my legs, feeling like my bones were going to explode, and asked if this was related to my bone density level being a bit low (proven with a dexa scan). They said unless I fractured something it’s not actually a pain in the bones, it’s only muscular. And that conditions like osteopenia and osteoporosis do not feel painful except in the joints and surrounding muscles. True?
Sun will not come close to providing enough D3 unless you can spend 4hrs in it.
Depends on age and location - much easier to supplement D but there are still advantages to sunshine when possible- some I’m sure we don’t even know about but red light is known
I have OA in my joints so it aches. I take all the supplements you mentioned and I don’t really have any of the other signs and symptoms. I do use Tiger Balm for aches and pains in my joints and it helps tremendously. I also do yoga for 30 minutes and ride my road bike.
What if you are a Melanoma patient?? How can you get more sun??
What about your face being red and dry what would this be ? Thank you
DR.Berry I been doing the low carb for over a year now but my face is red and dry never was before the diet why is this?
Cheers mate love it
i had very low vitamin D after going through Dengue fever. all these sympthoms. The family doctor did nothing. i found out after 2 years of suffering that i have very low D vitamin levels. i had to take 50.000IU for a year every day!
Now its normalized

What kind of meat do you eat ?
I wonder if there's a difference in vitamin D absorption from the sun, when our cells are saturated with PUFA's or Saturated fats. There has to be something to this.
