Vit D serum levels vary by latitude, weather, lifestyle, body size, body fat levels, starting serum levels, co-factor levels, etc. Therefore a single fixed dose given to a variety of folks will have a variety of results. The most useful D variable versus any outcome is the serum level. The next methodological issue is the outcome criteria...... rickets, heart disease, etc. Each disease may respond to different serum levels. Rickets might be prevented at fairly low levels (e.g. 20-30 ng/ml) while infectious diseases might require much higher levels. Since natural levels at the equator are 40-60 ng/ml, a safe serum target is 50 ng/ml. The final issue is loading dose versus maintenance dose. Someone with a low D level will need a temporary high dose to raise their levels while a maintenance dose can be lower (Dr Heaney suggests 35IU/pound of body weight daily). The loading dose (see also Holick re "filling the tank") could be 10,000 iu/day for 4-5 weeks, re-test, adjust. If serum levels do not respond to dosing, then suspect a co-factor deficiency, usually magnesium. See also co-factors. Cheers.
The immune cells all, AFAIK, lack the 'molecular pump' that bone, kidney and other tissue do possess. They rely on passive diffusion to move D in to the cell. 15 ng will fend off rickets, but proper immune response seems to require levels around 60~80ng, and perhaps above. And that assumes the patient doesn't have a VDR mutation or other malfunction in their VD pathway. Monitoring PTH is a good way to determine D sufficiency. Ramp D until PTH is driven into the low-normal range (

I've been taking 10,000iu for a few years now and around flu time every year I catch something but the symptoms are much much less severe. I had flu about 10 x years ago and couldn't barely walk for a week. People in our office a few years ago, pretty much everyone came down with it and my friend got pneumonia. The virus just bounced off me. I went home one night got the shivers and had to go to bed early feeling sick then next day got up and was symptom free. D3 works absolutely. Now given the comments above, onto the main point. I'm convinced myself and the wife have had covid earlier this year. We had a cough solid for 3 x weeks, which felt like itchy cotton wool in the solar plexus and extended to our backs. No phlegm would come up at all but it sounded like there was something there. The taste in my throat was completely unnatural and every night after about an hour or so laid flat, I'd wake up and cough constantly for a good 10mins, to the point one night I had to hover over the sink with the feeling of going to be sick, but panicking at the same time. It did eventually subside after 3 x weeks of hell. The wife was coughing one night for 30mins non stop and was shouting what the hell is this, what is wrong with me. I truly believe that without D3 this covid would have taken us both down badly. A lot of money can be made when a vaccine is found for this covid, so why would we be advised to take D3 which is superbly effective and enhancing the immune system.
Can we have a source on evidence that vitamin D can reduce cytokine storm? In talking to my brother who is a researcher at St Jude's, he said there is great evidence that vitamin D can reduce chronic inflamation but the evidence for it reducing cytokine storms in particular is lacking. (incidentally he thinks 2000-4000 IU a day is still a very good idea as the risks of supplementation are extremely low and vitamin d deficiency is a wide-scale problem in the US)

You expect the hysterical media to spoon feed useful information? FYI, The covid infection fatality risk is less than the all cause mortality risk with the same comorbidities as the leading causes of preventable death every year. Heart disease, high blood pressure, respiratory, kidney disease, diabetes, obesity, ... If you want to live longer, healthier, happier: eat more fruit and veggies, breath fresh air, exercise, sleep, relax, and socialize.
Depends on where you went to school, the classes you took, and the quality of your health care. I have the VA (Veterans' Admin care) and they have checked my Vit D levels as part of my regular checkups. Fee for service care based on what a insurance pays for, so many don't get it tested.
Every vitamin/minerals/trace substances works together, so one should not only rely on only Vitamin D3 - we need a good balance of all that stuff. But it's makes most sense to start taking at least Vitamin C, B-complex and Vitamin D3 at some higher dose first week(s). And at the same time start to eat better food, and exercise. Let's say you do that for a month, then you only need to take the absolute lowest recommended dose. But in countries with less UV-light during the winter, a higher amount of D3 is wise - 30-50 ug/microgram should work fine
Yes but there is one huge difference. You can get enough minerals / vitamins from a healthy diet. You can't get enough vitamin d from a healthy diet. So it can be totally fine to just supplement vitamin d but nothing else.
and most people who are freaking out.. are people refusing to change lifestyle to improve THEIR health.. keep wanting to have someone give them a magic pill or bandaid instead of trying to fidx theirself.. one word.. spoilled and selfish.
everybody should be taking vitamin D which I always have been, but people also shouldn't';t be thinking they can just take vitamin D, that they are immune from getting a serious illness from covid
Hi there, thanks for the video. It would be very helpful if you link the studies mentioned in the description in future videos if its not too much trouble. Thank you!
Dosage is critical, and some studies have shown that doses over 2000 cause worse outcomes. Bolus doses are shown to actually be negative, and not just ineffective. I'm going from memory of studies I saw, but it seems that many people suggest pretty high does of around 5000, which are not toxic, but still seem questionable. I don't have the final answer, and I'm hoping to find out more in these types of videos.
So why have doctors at Beth Israel in Boston been so resistant to simply test my brother for his Vitamin D level? He is hospitalized for Covid-19 and I have asked them from the inception to test him and their only response was to get annoyed that I was asking them to do something out of their "protocol".
SARS-CoV-2 seems to cause blood clots and affects the ACE receptors in capillaries. One needs to discuss the role of vitamin and minerals in the blood immune system.
Covid is not a respiratory infection. The largest concentration of Ace 2 just happens to be in the lungs.By attaching to Ace 2 and taking it out of action a oxidative (inflammatory ) response throughout the endothelial lining of the vascular system occurs. Thus causing clotting...heart attack, stroke, pulmonary embolus etc. You still want to take your Vitamin D.
@@dirkmoore4224 That was the point of my comment. Most of the videos on SARS-CoV-2 are treating COVID19 like a respiratory disease that cascades throughout the body through an inflammatory response. The reports of blood clotting and replication in the ACE receptors in capillaries indicates that it attacks multiple systems. As I understand Vitamin D, Vitamin K and certain minerals play an important role in regulating blood thickness and clotting. For example this 2018 link ( www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6164284/ ) talks about vitamin D as a regulator of inflammation and cytokines . But I think there is a lot more to the story because there are different forms of Vitamin D. UV B rays hitting the skin form one type. Kidneys produce a second type, etc.. The balance of the different types seem to matter. To make things more complex. Vitamin D interacts with Vitamin K. (K1 = phytonadione, K2 = menaquinone) . These interactions seem to affect both bone health and blood health. Unfortunately, most of the information I've come across about these interactions are from health food stores trying to sell people supplements. I am hoping to find actual medical channels that examine the role of Vitamin D in blood health. I think the role it plays is quite complex.
It's a matter of time but somebody will publish an article discussing the question if, given the absence of a vaccine, it would not be best to get everybody infected in summer, while we have high vit D.
@@northnsouth6813 Multiple causes; poverty leading to nutritionally poor/cheap foods leading to a less effective immune system and combine that with having to take jobs with greater exposure to the virus (care workers/meatplant workers can't work from home).

@@demos113 “The results show that the difference between ethnic groups in Covid-19 mortality is partly a result of socio-economic disadvantage and other circumstances, but a remaining part of the difference has not yet been explained,” the ONS said. Taken from the Google, Melanin, which causes skin pigmentation, lowers the skin's ability to make vitamin D in response to sunlight exposure. Some studies show that older adults with darker skin are at high risk of vitamin D deficiency.
@@chillycharles910 I live in upstate NY and we are encouraged to go out and get sun and exercise albeit at a safe distance from others. There isn't some conspiracy to make people sick and die with Covid-19. The lock downs lower the R0 or how transmissible the virus is. If people aren't coming into contact with other people, they can't give them the virus, it's as simple as that. All these BS conspiracy theories just make people not want to listen to the government and will make the lockdowns last longer, the economy shrink further and things will continue to get worse. If we all wore masks, stayed away from each other and washed our hands properly and regularly this virus would disappear all on it's own. Instead we have protestors arguing their rights to be stupid and give this virus exactly what it wants, fresh idiots to infect.

@@katiecole4956 Vitamin K is not needed (it is required for clotting, precisely the wrong thing in this setting), and 4k of ergocalciferol a day should be ok but I stress that blood levels should be checked. Vit D like most fat soluble vitamins can be toxic. Ergocalciferol, which is more active and does not require sun exposure to work, can be more toxic and more effective, but doses of 4k a day to even 10k a day should be safe in most cases.

This is association but not causation. It is fine to take Vitamin D in moderation since the risks of taking it is so low. But there aren't great studies providing definitive evidence that vitamin D works.
Someone mentioned (Common Knowledge). 370 Million Americans do not have all the information one assumes they ( Should Know). Really, I know what I know and do not know what I do not know.

well its never too late......pls add olive extra virgin oil as well.......drink 1 tea spoon in the morning and one at bed time as also u can put 1drop in each nose for ur block nose......when u put in ur both nastroll just hold ur nose and breath deep from nose it will be like u have a anti virus spray...my 2cents
Awesome, simple to understand explanation. Interesting
Good to see that people talk about this
So why have people known about this for years, but here in America they haven’t told us. They’re on,y starting to tell us now that RUclips has let the cat out of the bag.
Exactly
The sugar lobby.
You expect the hysterical media to spoon feed useful information?
FYI, The covid infection fatality risk is less than the all cause mortality risk with the same comorbidities as the leading causes of preventable death every year. Heart disease, high blood pressure, respiratory, kidney disease, diabetes, obesity, ... If you want to live longer, healthier, happier: eat more fruit and veggies, breath fresh air, exercise, sleep, relax, and socialize.
Because there is no money in health only in ill-health.
Depends on where you went to school, the classes you took, and the quality of your health care. I have the VA (Veterans' Admin care) and they have checked my Vit D levels as part of my regular checkups. Fee for service care based on what a insurance pays for, so many don't get it tested.
Every vitamin/minerals/trace substances works together, so one should not only rely on only Vitamin D3 - we need a good balance of all that stuff. But it's makes most sense to start taking at least Vitamin C, B-complex and Vitamin D3 at some higher dose first week(s). And at the same time start to eat better food, and exercise. Let's say you do that for a month, then you only need to take the absolute lowest recommended dose. But in countries with less UV-light during the winter, a higher amount of D3 is wise - 30-50 ug/microgram should work fine
very very nice as well as wise advice!God Bless!Amen!
@Kevin Richards absolutely true!God Bless Everybody!Amen!
Yes but there is one huge difference. You can get enough minerals / vitamins from a healthy diet. You can't get enough vitamin d from a healthy diet.
So it can be totally fine to just supplement vitamin d but nothing else.
Nice video
Everyone scared of covid, needs to watch this.
Tired of these people freaking out extremely making people's life crap.
and most people who are freaking out.. are people refusing to change lifestyle to improve THEIR health.. keep wanting to have someone give them a magic pill or bandaid instead of trying to fidx theirself.. one word.. spoilled and selfish.
@@npcimknot958 Some people do not have the ability to change their health. What an incredibly naive and childish sweeping statement. Grow up.
Mrs G yes you can. You can help people by giving them healthy diets, vitamins, exercise. You grow up.
@@npcimknot958 and I've been a health professional for over 30 years. Whats your qualification apart from being a class A troll?
everybody should be taking vitamin D which I always have been, but people also shouldn't';t be thinking they can just take vitamin D, that they are immune from getting a serious illness from covid
All of this material was taken from a video by MedCram posted like two weeks ago
Med cram is the best. He seems to be ahead of everything. He was talking about Hydroxychloroquine and zinc in early March.
deenobrown1 yup. His best video actually may be the daily regime he’s using (quercetin, vitD, vitC, zinc). Im on the same cocktail right now.

Could you provide the link? Thanks!
Thank you, neighbor to the north (if I am identifying the accent correctly), for your informative presentation.
Hi there, thanks for the video. It would be very helpful if you link the studies mentioned in the description in future videos if its not too much trouble. Thank you!
Like si vienes por el doctor Vic.
Dosage is critical, and some studies have shown that doses over 2000 cause worse outcomes. Bolus doses are shown to actually be negative, and not just ineffective. I'm going from memory of studies I saw, but it seems that many people suggest pretty high does of around 5000, which are not toxic, but still seem questionable. I don't have the final answer, and I'm hoping to find out more in these types of videos.

Hey, Great info, JJ, Thanks a Million. You're the MAN!!✌
Excellent sir
So why have doctors at Beth Israel in Boston been so resistant to simply test my brother for his Vitamin D level? He is hospitalized for Covid-19 and I have asked them from the inception to test him and their only response was to get annoyed that I was asking them to do something out of their "protocol".
no need to test, just take the right dose of vit D.
SARS-CoV-2 seems to cause blood clots and affects the ACE receptors in capillaries. One needs to discuss the role of vitamin and minerals in the blood immune system.
Covid is not a respiratory infection. The largest concentration of Ace 2 just happens to be in the lungs.By attaching to Ace 2 and taking it out of action a oxidative (inflammatory ) response throughout the endothelial lining of the vascular system occurs. Thus causing clotting...heart attack, stroke, pulmonary embolus etc. You still want to take your Vitamin D.
Dr. Seheult gives a great explanation it this. ruclips.net/video/Ja-jhcXMGj0/видео.html
@@dirkmoore4224 That was the point of my comment. Most of the videos on SARS-CoV-2 are treating COVID19 like a respiratory disease that cascades throughout the body through an inflammatory response. The reports of blood clotting and replication in the ACE receptors in capillaries indicates that it attacks multiple systems.
As I understand Vitamin D, Vitamin K and certain minerals play an important role in regulating blood thickness and clotting. For example this 2018 link ( www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6164284/ ) talks about vitamin D as a regulator of inflammation and cytokines . But I think there is a lot more to the story because there are different forms of Vitamin D.
UV B rays hitting the skin form one type. Kidneys produce a second type, etc.. The balance of the different types seem to matter.
To make things more complex. Vitamin D interacts with Vitamin K. (K1 = phytonadione, K2 = menaquinone) . These interactions seem to affect both bone health and blood health. Unfortunately, most of the information I've come across about these interactions are from health food stores trying to sell people supplements. I am hoping to find actual medical channels that examine the role of Vitamin D in blood health. I think the role it plays is quite complex.
It's a matter of time but somebody will publish an article discussing the question if, given the absence of a vaccine, it would not be best to get everybody infected in summer, while we have high vit D.
Could it be why blacks or ethnic patients have a higher risk of death with COVID-19 as their skin produces less vitamin D?
Or maybe because they are more likely to have comorbidities associated with poverty?
Sleekoduck research shows that if you are black or ethnic you are twice as likely to die from Covid-19. I was just trying to fathom it out.
@@northnsouth6813 Multiple causes; poverty leading to nutritionally poor/cheap foods leading to a less effective immune system and combine that with having to take jobs with greater exposure to the virus (care workers/meatplant workers can't work from home).
It's a perfect storm hitting the people in the most difficult situation.
@@demos113 “The results show that the difference between ethnic groups in Covid-19 mortality is partly a result of socio-economic disadvantage and other circumstances, but a remaining part of the difference has not yet been explained,” the ONS said. Taken from the Google, Melanin, which causes skin pigmentation, lowers the skin's ability to make vitamin D in response to sunlight exposure. Some studies show that older adults with darker skin are at high risk of vitamin D deficiency.
And they know this... so they are making everyone stat inside... they have blood no their hands...
I really think they know this and the negative affect of staying indoors getting less sun.
@@chillycharles910 I live in upstate NY and we are encouraged to go out and get sun and exercise albeit at a safe distance from others. There isn't some conspiracy to make people sick and die with Covid-19. The lock downs lower the R0 or how transmissible the virus is. If people aren't coming into contact with other people, they can't give them the virus, it's as simple as that. All these BS conspiracy theories just make people not want to listen to the government and will make the lockdowns last longer, the economy shrink further and things will continue to get worse. If we all wore masks, stayed away from each other and washed our hands properly and regularly this virus would disappear all on it's own. Instead we have protestors arguing their rights to be stupid and give this virus exactly what it wants, fresh idiots to infect.
@@St1ngerGuy Getting exercise and sun are rarely mentioned by govt officals or doctors as a method to build your immune system.
@@chillycharles910 So if you get fat and Vitamin D deficient it's the government's fault? You don't want them to tell you to lockdown, but you want them to tell you to exercise and get sun? That's just stupid.
@Jigga. Well said. One of this is new, I’m 67 and remember like yesterday my mom making me go outside and get exercise. Not sure what’s going on with our population with blame and entitlement, but it’s killing the country.
Great

Thank you so much for the video!!! Much love and peace :)
Here in the philippine we are tropical country lots of sun. Thank God.
Vitamin D with daily Sunlight
oral vitamin d3 is not the same as from sunlight on skin.
Nice
Great info but too complex- Dr Mikes çharts far better to understand.
Thank you for making this video, you are a life saver
Which would be more beneficial vitamin D from the sun or from suppliers?
Be careful of megadoses please. More than 50k units a week wo monitoring calcium can be dangerous. Too much is as bad as too little. Notice the best effects were in those already deficient, and yes, much of the population is deficient due to our indoor life.
is 4000 per day ok? without having to add extra vitamin k?
@@katiecole4956 Vitamin K is not needed (it is required for clotting, precisely the wrong thing in this setting), and 4k of ergocalciferol a day should be ok but I stress that blood levels should be checked. Vit D like most fat soluble vitamins can be toxic. Ergocalciferol, which is more active and does not require sun exposure to work, can be more toxic and more effective, but doses of 4k a day to even 10k a day should be safe in most cases.
@@JRRodriguez-nu7po thank you for your reply, the ingredients on the vitamin d supplements i bought today is 'Cholecalciferol' not ergocalciferol. is that wrong?
@@katiecole4956 No problem, I had to edit my response. Cholecalciferol is the more active one.
@@katiecole4956 I beg to differ from JR. Vit k2 (both mk-4 and mk-7) are important. Vit k1 is for clotting - vit k1 may be converted to k2 (which sub type, i forgot)in the body. According to dentist stevenlin, vit a, vit D, vit k2 are very important for Dental health (carries, microbes in mouth, etc)

Everyone that is talking about risk factors for COVID-19 like Type 2 Diabetes do not mention if the diabetes was under control or not. I have type 2 diabetes and lupus with an A1C of 6.7. Obviously I am doing everything I can to stay inside and have very limited contact with friends (family members are either dead or far away). But every time they mention that I am in a high risk group for COVID-19 I wonder if I would survive the disease. I am very active (meaning I walk 45 minutes or bike 17 to 20 miles most days) but 58 years old, overweight and my diet is not the best since I don't cook and there are no healthy restaurants around me for take out. I guess when I get the disease I will know (notice I say when and not if based on how things are going in the US).
Nobody mentions this, but D3 + k2 is the way to go:)
Fasted Aesthetics If you desire K2 in a food form, the Japanese fermented food “natto” has the highest amount available. Ten times the amount found in the next closest source, European cheeses.
Came to the comments for a conclusion
1000-2000/d is not enough. 4000-5000 iu/d is required in winter formost people living far from the equator.
4-5 daily tablets?
👍👍👍👍
But what about inflammatory bowel disease ?? IBD.
2020 anyone?
I have CLL, a Doctor from the lymphoma research foundation recommends vitamin D daily to help your compromised immune system.
Is it possible that some of the studies with increased infection rates were using D2 supplementation instead of D3?
joeconsumer or perhaps did not supplement enough. It can take time to build vitamin levels up, especially if you were severely deficient.
@@allyd5021 - my D3 was 29.4on 23rd july 2019... took 2000IU dont exactly rmbr daily or alternatedays for a month, & tested again.... 45.3 on 23rd Aug 2019... 15.9 ng/ml in a month acc to my body. then kept a gap of 45 days and restarted again ... 45 days alternate on and the 45 days off till Oct. Haven't checked till date whats the levels ... But since march again taking 2000IU daily and have up the dosage to 4000IU .... aim is take 60000IU once a week. I dont wish to hammer 60000IU of D3 in my body immediately. Cse, m not sure how will my body react to that high dosage.
@@lazyfingrz need to take co-factors. ok? vit k and mag and zinc ok?
D2 is a more active version but with a very much shorter half-life so clears the body too fast.
And our "smart" leaders close the beaches, where sunbathers would make vit.d for free
Maybe
How many dose that we needed to cover immunity sistem to fight covid ?

This is association but not causation. It is fine to take Vitamin D in moderation since the risks of taking it is so low. But there aren't great studies providing definitive evidence that vitamin D works.
Who's going to pay for the studies. No money in them. The proof is in the 100000s of real life testimonials..Ah
There are many studies about vitimin d3 Research ?
