I was the wife of a doctor of integrative medicine for over 30 years. We treated decades of different viruses and health catastrophes with vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids, Vitamin C drips, Meyer's Cocktail IVs, hydrogen peroxide IVs, chelation and lots of advice. We didn't think much of curing everybody. But in Ontario now, doctors who post about Vitamin D and its necessity for the immune system are threatened by Health Canada and censored. Naturopaths have been told that they cannot promote Vitamin D and C. The Public Health Doctor for Canada, Dr. Tam calls the use of these vitamins "Snake Oil". Your videos, Dr. Sam, are very dear to the public. I love to watch them.

If you consider the sources I am tired of government telling us what to do. For over a decade in America we were told climate change was bad that co2 was bad truth is plants which are our source of food for not only us but the animals we eat and plants including mainly green pigments convert carbon dioxide into oxygen by the way of photosynthesis which a scientist named Ian Isanhous born in 1730 and died in 1799. He claimed that with sunlight and water plants were able to convert co2 into oxygen but because of Obama's climate change models didn't fit that scenario photosynthesis was forgotten by our scientists. Why do you think they were called oxygen bearing plants .Carbon dioxide only becomes lethal according to a google search at about 110000 parts per million. Since confined spaces are already limited on oxygen and we use oxygen and breath out carbon dioxide in human respiration why confined spaces are so dangerous. Many have been talking about going to Mars the planet but looking up what NASA satellite have come up with no human could survive there. The atmosphere is 94.6 percent co2 and average temperature is about a negative 83 degrees Fahrenheit we would die of hypothermia in minutes.

Love your videos. I'm from Australia and have won the fight against diabetes when diagnosed end up taking 2000mg of Metformin and injecting insulin 3 times a day. Then my body began to breakdown etc.. not to mention overweight. But now I am 61 lost weight from 115kg down to 87Kg all naturally as soon as I gave up sugar and processed sugar. I feel better now than when I was in my 30's. I do weight training 3 times a week and am on a good diet.

Doc I love this video on vitamin D and it’s importance to our bodies immune system. I fell ill a while back with pneumonia and the flu. I quit smoking the day I went into the hospital and never looked back but even after a few years which included exercise I had episodes of my asthma that lasted days sometimes weeks. My doctor took blood and said my vitamin D was low. I live in Michigan so there’s that winter thing lol. Anyway I started taking vitamin D supplements and never stopped. I even felt good enough to get a scuba diving certification with the docs approval and hardly get a cold anymore. By the way it was 20 yrs ago I quit smoking.

Dee....that’s great news, so glad you’re there to help your dad keep well! I had the same problem, I had knee pain for three years after falling down stairs...I started taking 10,000iu/day for about 4 weeks then down to 5,000iu ongoing....knee pain has completely gone! I can’t recommend it enough to people, but some are sceptical and don’t want to take that amount! 😢

[@martinm8991]

YES, that is the right dosage! For example 10.000 IU Sept-Apr and 5.000 IU May-Aug (if You live above 42nd northern parallel). Lower dosage typically does not suffice. Also get a blood test every few years, 50-80 ng/ml is perfect, stay below 100 ng/ml.

Great video. I have first hand experience of D3 deficiency. For about 8 years I suffered from a constant viral state, bone and muscle pain, depression, chest infections, profuse sweating, damaged vocal cords, no energy and other symptoms. I eat oily fish, love vegetables and generally eat a healthy diet but live in the Northern hemisphere and apply factor 30 sunscreen when sunbathing. I was at rock bottom and couldn’t see a way forward with my life feeling this way - if you understand what I mean - which is totally unlike me. I was desperate and doctors weren’t listening. I finally saw a different doctor who took more bloods and discovered that my body was fighting at this point serious disease and quite rightly started with the more sinister things. I was sent for scans and x-rays but she also discovered that I had a huge Vit D deficiency and put me on high doses of D3 with monitoring. Within about 10 days I felt better than I had in years. I now have NONE of the symptoms described above and have embarked on a serious fitness campaign (because I now can). My life has totally turned round. So, thanks to people like you, people like me are living a much better life.

Did the doc tell you to drop the sunscreen? That cant be good for you either, go out in the morning to catch the sun, the evening as well, and the mid-day wear a hat! In NZ we have the worst rates for UV exposure due to the ozone hole, but still, I use SPF6 for three months of the year when its at its worse, also a loose longsleeve shirt, and wear a hat for half the year...

[@Craigdna]

What I like about your videos, is your prefrotnal cortex utilization. You are not attention seeking, nor over dramatic, which is probably the more laid back New Zealand influence, and you are very thorough and informative. Sometimes in nutrition, in the US, people will only talk about one thing and they will continually plaster it over and over again. You do an excellent job in covering the most current research and it is very much appreciated. It is important for people that get less sunlight, to take supplementation, and vitamin D helps to metabolize cholesterol as well, which is important. You definitely have a long term patron from me and the most important topic for us to learn is nutrition. Thanks for all your efforts.

[@lizcutajar9352]

I had bad sciatica and back pains early last year. Drs (tried 3) had me on strong pain killers (side effects) for months, talk of thyroid meds, maybe surgery. Tried chiropractor. My husband, a retired engineer, got hold of my many blood tests and xray report. Spent a day on pubmed and then told me I needed some Vitamin D3, K2, magnesium and some turmeric for the inflammation. 3 weeks later I was well and improved every day since. Oddly, didn't get a cold last year. First time ever.

My son is a doctor who deals with hormone issues with his patients and vitamin D is his BIGGEST problem and we live in southern NM. His next biggest issue with his elderly patients is low DHEA hormone levels. Look it up, but taking 25mg a day makes a huge difference in how you feel.

Look into Vitamin C also....a lot of information on this. (My background before medicine was genetics....need for VitC is due to a genetic defect in humans....and only 4 other species...all other species make it in liver and it is up regulated in disease states. It's as important as VitC.) Keep up your good work. Cheers.

I live in the UK and it's not known for it's sunshine, to put it mildly... I also suffer from psoriasis (a skin disorder). During our autumn and winter months I become lax and disenfranchised and my motivation falls to a very low level. A number of years ago I discovered a remedy for this. I went to South East Asia, to a tropical country which has almost all year round sunshine. Let me tell you a little bit about what happens when I step into my chosen country. I feel instantly better... I'm covered from my feet to my neck with very bad psoriatic plaques... I discovered that exposing my skin to sunlight cleared up my psoriasis as though I'd never had the condition but let me tell you an even more amazing discovery than that. I once went to my tropical retreat and within a couple of days of getting there, ventured to a remote beach... Making sure there was no one around I took off my tee shirt only, but kept my jeans, socks and shoes on... to my astonishment, the psoriasis on my lower body (that remained covered in heavy clothing) ALSO cleared up within a week ! even though I'd never had sun exposure to that area. It proves that vitamin D produced by your own body from sunlight is not localized, but will travel all around your body. I enjoy watching Dr. Sam's videos and learn something new every time I watch one. Thanks for that Sam, if you're reading this..... keep up the good work.

My son's dog consumed an entire package of 13 rodent killer tabs. We found out from the vet that the new style of rodenticide is not based on arsenic as we thought, but of concentrated Vitamin D. It has the effect of drawing Ca and Potassium from the bones and clogging the liver. The dog finally got straightened out but only after a long series of treatments and many $$'s. At the same time, I was taking Vit D supplements, suggested by my doctor. The dog's condition prompted me to look up Vit D overdose symptoms in humans and one is unexplained itching, which I had. I stopped the Vit D and the symptoms decreased by a lot. I have been since tested and have normal Vit D readings. So, I am not condemning taking Vit D supplements, but it has to be taken with caution.

One pill in the AM and one at supper time. We do take a variety of other things too.

we had to adapt as we moved north: the same pigment that protects from UV hinders vitamin D production - women with low vitamin D have a poorly formed pelvis and are less successful in child-bearing: this (over time) selects for whiter skin as you move north (better vitamin D production = better calcium absorption, more successful birth rate). other coping mechanisms: eating fish, red meat, mushrooms growing (or dried) in sunlight... nowadays we supplement dairy, but if you're a vegan and don't eat dairy, meat or fish...

There are many videos by other doctors who teach on vitamin K. My personal thoughts are that it is important and something like Natto consumed weekly seems sufficient to help. My thought is taking it close to bedtime would be best because the regeneration of bone occurs when we sleep.

Lovely presentation. As a teacher indoors l suspected l was D3 deficient and had my levels tested and was below 20 ngmol. After that l took supplements and have done for ten years. I too suggested to parents that they have the D3 levels of their darker skinned listless chikdren tested. Inevitably they were, as were light skinned kids to. The slip slop slap campaign also ensures kids during summer don't get enough D3 in the summer months. Studies have shown that kids in the US come back from summer camp because of the sunscreen, hat and long sleeves campaign. Many dermatolgists are vitamin D3 deficient it turns out, being the champions of the slip slop slap campaign. During covid l am on 3000 iu's daily.

Apologize for all the comments as I know you have a lot of guest mail to read through, but think it's great you're considering a video on skin care. Don't know that enough of us give it the care it deserves considering it's the largest body organ. If you do present a video on this topic and you have time, can you consider addressing preventative maintenance and self skin checks? Always learn a lot from you and appreciate your investment in these health tutorials. Also looking adorable in the red sweater. . . you always look adorable, but the red accentuated your hair color and is a perfect contrast to your soft skin tone. Not sure how you do it, but coupled with your presentation and delivery, your videos are works of art!

What is your take on sunscreen lotions that is made with those harmful chemicals? And which one do you recommend?

[@marioarias9942]

Sunscreen will block the vitamin D3 from the sun. I would say if you have light skin dont get so much sun you get sunburned, only half the time .

[@philipwakeford6923]

I was diagnosed with low vitamin D and given booster doses and told after completed to take a supplement but not told how high this supplement should be. I come from often cloudy Wales in Britain but tan easily. What you said confirmed my own research and I shall be taking 50 micrograms daily from October through to the end of April. Thank you.

Love your videos, they’re very informative!!! Love the breakdown on the various vitamins your body needs, and the the reaction to less or more needed in the body. Also, please cover more female hormone issues.

Ok, thanks for your suggestion Becca M :)

My fav is 5:18, when you talk about going out in the sun to get melatonin.... that really made me think about what other experts have said. Thanks

[@patrickdavidson3544]

Good talk as always. I would appreciate it if you could express the vitamin D3 in IU or list the conversion factor as well as mcg. thank you

[@DrSamBailey]

Thank you! I have done this now :)

[@march1326]

Good to see you back. You are always so informative and wonderful!

[@ernienucup3703]

I like this because you mentioned my similar situation when my physician placed me on a Vitamin D3 daily regimen when I turned 70... 10 years ago. Thanks so much.

What I enjoyed the most about this video “Kiwi accent” noticed one thing more Hollywood is alive & kick’n in Kiwi Land, you know I’m just been facetious, my first time it’s informative, talking about sun, I am from beautiful Huntington Beach CA weather is always good. All in all it’s informative video!

New Zealand seems like a wonderful place...

[@Rayblondie]

What the whole country because of Dr Sam?

[@georgewatson6622]

She looks a lot like my co worker,and I had a crush on both. Lol.....

[@drnaveedjaved]

Hello Dr. Sam. Dr. Naveed here from UK. You look awesome in the video and the information was also very effective and accurate. I really like you very much.

[@DrSamBailey]

So nice of you

[@drnaveedjaved]

@@DrSamBailey It's a Pleasure ❤️

[@lechatel]

It isn't accurate. She said fish oils were D2 (they are D3) and she burbled on about toxic overdoses. It seems people are judging this woman on the fact she 'looks awesome' rather than her medical knowledge.

Hi Dr Sam, I have recently been reading about the benifit of berberine. I am at the moment taking metformin for what I call very borderline diabetes. I was wondering if there would be any benifit or down side to taking berberine along side the metformin. Many thanks, love your channel, very informative. All the best, Barry.

[@barcrrt850]
