An accurate formula for dosage is to multiply weight in pounds x the desired lab level. For instance, 100ng/ml is my target lab level. I weigh 180 lbs. 180 x 100 is 18,000 iu daily. I have taken 20,000 for 3 months. The slightly higher dose calculated to an expected level of 111ng/ml. I was 113ng/ml just days ago. Very accurate formula without labs.
Lower heart rate is not better. In fact a healthy metabolism would yield a heart rate of around 80 beats per minute. The idea that a lower heart rate is better comes from a mechanistic idea of health. As if human beings were machines that have a finite span of operation before it breaks. We have the ability to replace ourselves however so the hayflick limit isn't necessarily applicable to humans. The other reason people think a high heart rate is bad is because most people are achieving high heart rates through the adrenaline system instead of the rejuvenative thyroid system. High adrenaline is catabolic and harmful long term so any associations made with heart rate here are moot since these heart rates are achieved through stress.
If your HRV has gone down, it could be that you are not taking enough magnesium. This mineral is key for heart function. In my experience, high levels of vitamin D3 means high energy levels. Your heart is involved in energy regulation. If you have made a big jump from very low levels of D3 to high levels, your heart needs to catch up. I take 10,000IU VD3 daily but with K2 and magnesium. Even with this dose I see big increases in energy levels and testosterone, both of which have a big impact on my heart.
@@CargoSlim yes it was daily, for 3 weeks, then I reduced to once a week and currently I take ince a week 20k IU or less and sometimes nothing, I have already filled up my D3 depot, I feel amazing, vest decision I made, but I would suggest you to start that high, some people cant digest such high doses, start low, maybe 5k IU daily then after a week 10k IU daily and so on, starting slow is always good, dont forget k2 and magnesium, its said that magnesium bysglicinat is very good, itherwise you will raise calcium too much in the blood
@@saintmaxmedia2423 I take about 400mcg K2 everytime I take D3, no matter what dose of D3 I take, magnesium I take about 100mg, my body doesnt tolerate higher doses of magnesium because I get dizzy and stomach cramps... I recently read that it is better to take magnesium bysglicinat or at least a magnesium complex, because it is absorbed better by the body
Wow..! healthcare really seems to be expensive in the west. I am from India, here we get 4 pills each of 60,000 IU, for about 1.5 dollars ~ ₹ 130 (approx). So, about 7 dollars' worth should last you a month if you are taking 30,000 IU every day. Any how, good content and advice! Thank you!
Do you get any from the sun or use something like mitolix to get natural d3 4000IU in 5 min plus the sun you could supplement less and the D3 you make behaves differently.
You must take magnesium and zinc supplements for you to fully metabolise D3 at the dosage your taking, else the D3 will not give you the benefits it could.
Really there is now ideal dosage. Its arbitary it depends on your blood level to begin with. I'd say optimal blood level 110 to 180 nm/l. Depending on your calcium and phospate levels. It should also ge noted that high bolus doses causes a decrease it blood d as body goes into panic and stops absorbing. Little and often is better.
