Vitamin D: The evidence for higher doses with Dr Michael Holick 

35,000 daily, i didn't think that was safe to take large amounts daily, I'm on 40,000 but only once a week.

I want to take more myself i find it more effective but don't want to overdose

@@revert2islam2005 I can't find any real evidence except for warnings about vitamin D toxicity. I learned that it's very hard to get in trouble by taking too much vitamin D. Massive doses of vitamin D3 can cause magnesium deficiency, but if you take magnesium too it's almost never a problem, and vitamin D can cause blood calcium levels to go up, but I found out that it is pretty rare, and can be mitigated by taking vitamin K2 at the same time, and that is what I do, take magnesium and K2 with my high dose vitamin D.

Make sure to take 200mcg of K2 for every 10k IU of D3 to avoid toxicity (too much free calcium)

@@revert2islam2005 yes its safe. AS LONG as you take magnesium and vitamin K2 with those high amounts. 😎

Crazy

Same here! 20.000iu ED and 100.000 every Sunday

It's cool. Low dose prevents rickets and high doses turn genes on and off!

Gee whiz I could never ever afford a quarter of that. Just 4 would push me out of my budget. How do you afford that.

@@wellinever1558 That all costs about $5 a day so it may be worth checking it out

@wellinever1558 most important magn glycinate, d3, k2mk7, no much!

@@danaking3592what?? Did you mean TO much?? Or…

@@george.s.8491TOO much.

@@ingram4896 2 to 3 weeks, in my case it was only 3 or 4 days.

Yes and most use caffine, you piss the magnesium out in a few days, living in a constant state of deficancy

I made an official proposal at my workplace to recommend and even pay for vitamin d testing. The idea being that healthier employees will have less sick leave and thus increase profit for the company - there should be an interest in that. But obviously our company doctor is so convinced that vitamin d deficiency is not a problem that the idea was dismissed. In any case, it is documented, so when and if evidence emerge, at least I can say "I told you so". And what more do you really need. 😅

@Dennis O'Donnell...Initially my reaction was the same. I was surprised that Dr Holic would be saying that, so I had to listen again. However, the question Michael asked was, "should we be screening everyone?" Dr Holic's answer was, in general, "if there are other serious causes, then testing would be necessary". Then he gave the example of institutionalised patients. In their case, there are usually good reasons for testing. However, generally requesting Vit D testing (screening) for everyone who goes to the Dr with some/any complaint of pain, will naturally end up being very costly for governments that subsidise pathology costs. This is what Dr Holic was referring to. As passionate as he is for treating the cause of many health complications with increased levels of Vit D, he does not see good value in requesting screening for everyone. This is already the practise for testing by GPs, if you live in Australia, and Drs do not refer everyone for costly pathology tests, of any kind, unless really necessary. Now, public can always debate whether this is fair or not. Quite rightly so. However, governments also have a duty in making sure that the funding for health (and other services) is spent in a balanced manner. But I'm not advocating for governments here. Only pointing to the status quo of things, that's all.

Maybe trying to get your GP to be on board for high doses of vitD is the reason? Most of the medical profession recommends supplements that are way too low.

@@mc-nw1rk 700 million on a sports stadium and ramping ambulances is slightly out of balance.

@@lastjellyontheplate8828 they would have to do some research of VitD before they did that. I'm not sure there are many doctors willing to do that.

Your right, according to Jeff T Bowles, author of Vitamin D3 Miracle, high dose Vit D uses up magnesium and boron at a fast rate,supplementation advised

@@alancameron6937 read that book! Gave me the courage to up my D dose to therapeutic levels!

Caution on this guy advised. His loyalties lie elsewhere.

Pro tip : you can watch series at flixzone. Me and my gf have been using them for watching lots of of movies lately.

@Garrett Davion Yup, I have been using Flixzone for since november myself :)

Yep and some doctors never do it

Agree. You have to have a baseline. I would say it takes 3 months to get it up to optimum. What say the experts?

It is not that expensive to get tests privately - last time I looked, it was about £25

Wait, doesn't Vitamin D itself come from animal source ?

Caution advised. This is the deceptive voice of Big Pharma. Use the K2.

Scary

@@onlyhis5870 let me share my experiences , i was deficient in vit d .. Last 6 yrs. When Covid 19 pandemic occurred understood it will protect hence was more regular in taking it started to give extended family the suppliments. In 2021 understood that Vitamin D in India is considered normal if it is 20/30 ng/ml understood it can be above 50 to 60 ng/ml above 60 nl/ml it helps reduce covid lung . Due to covid 19 more forms of Vit D supplements were available in market hence in March or april started using a vit d with k2. My mother who is having arthritic changes in fingers (small joints. ) was taking it weekly 4 times 5000 iu vit D. But MAY end i noted she after 20 yrs was able to have rice by her hand (fingers) no spoon required to have few morsels.. Here food MUST be taken by hand she was able to have food by hand was unbelievable to me. Hence K2 with vit d important. . she took as covid19 prophylaxis and as bed bound last few yrs.

@@jazzyjazz9872 trolling for medical cartels will land you in Hell. Now THAT’S scary!

@@onlyhis5870 are you saying this gentleman in the video is part of big pharma?

Divide by 2.5

According to Jeff T Bowles, author of Vitamin D 3 Miracle, you're right, high dose Vit D uses up magnesium and boron at a fast rate, causing heartbeat irregularities, supplementation advised

Careful with ‘doctors.’ They are Pharma stooges or they wouldn’t still be practicing.

@@alancameron6937 my my it's so scary

@@jazzyjazz9872 don’t be afraid of D3 in large doses. It’s not scary at all. That’s the lie!

@@onlyhis5870 so too high will cause toxicity you're saying ?

He can't change the quality of the phone line, now can he?

There are natural sunscreens.

I was a brick mason for years my partner would cover himself with sunscreen every day,me id use zero , he died of cancer

It could be a hat and clothing

That depends on what it is made of. Zinc sunscreen is not poison, but if you are blocking the sun with sunscreens then I would think that you would be preventing you from getting Vit D. I only use sunscreen on my face and chest.

Read info by Jeff T. Bowles. I have learned to also check your calcium levels . Important to supplement with Vit K as I understand it keeps Calcium out of the blood.

@@terrylynncreel19 I I have his book and I have his website too so I’m all educated on him very smart guy thank you

@@terrylynncreel19 vitamin K2

Not according to Dr. Holick re depleting magnesium and he has over 40years of research under his belt. Why would D3 the natural source from the sun deplete magnesium? So supplementation wouldn't either. It's not logical.

I heard it from other drs not my opinion

YES

150 nm. Weren't you listening?

@@Noor-jw2tn What time frame

@@bobcocampo that is D levels in blood when tested. It's not dosage. I'm not sure what you mean by time frame.

@@Noor-jw2tn What part based on time in the video did you hear the levels of vitamin D for kids

@@Noor-jw2tn Read my question carefully. What is it that you don't understand?

Huh????
