How much Vitamin D should I take?

[@GingerPeacenik]

A friend of mine who lives in New England, is obese and rarely walks outside finally got relief from his chronic depression by taking higher doses of vitamin D. One simple supplement did far more for him than countless hours of therapy and a whole spectrum of "antidepressants".

After some years, I finally took a vitamin D supplement (10,000iu) and I suddenly felt happy for no reason again.

[@LTPottenger]

Look into Dr Valter Longo and Prof Thomas Seyfried. Fasting and a low carb diet can help to a surpising degree with cancer, recovering from chemotherapy, and especially preventing the onset or return of cancer! Some benefits of occasional extended fasting and lowering carbs in the diet: High blood pressure is lowered to normal levels very quickly while fasting. Fibrosis/scarring is reversed over time, including in the heart and lungs. Vitamin D plasma levels are increased as fasting improves metabolic health, and vitamin D in turn increases autophagy. When insulin is high, vit D stays locked in the blood cells. Fasting stimulates phagocytosis, the ingestion plaques, growths and pathogens by the immune system. This will also remove spikes quicker, whether natural or unnatural in origin! Your body recycles up to 1/3 of all immune bodies in a 72h fast, rejuvenating your entire immune system. This helps prevent the onset of new autoimmune conditions, which develop through a leaky gut and damaged immune system. Blood sugar and insulin are lowered when fasting, reducing inflammation and allowing the immune bodies to move freely through the body. Blood clotting is lessened and clots and plaques are removed over time. Fasting restores your circadian rhythm to normal over time. T cells and T reg cells are vital in fighting cancer, autoimmune disease and infections but as we age the thymus stops making as many of them. Fasting releases stem cells, which then can become new T cells. It also releases growth hormone, which regenerates the thymus itself! Fasting restores NAD+ and increases nitric oxide release to open blood vessels. Reflexes and short term memory are increased. Fasting increases anti-aging Yamanaka factors and increases average telomere length in stem cell pools. Fasting can help with MS, Depression, BPD, Autism and seizures. When you move out of MTOR your body shuts down the building blocks of the cell required for viruses to replicate. The hunger hormone ghrelin also lowers with extended fasting and rises from dieting. What breaks a fast? Anything with protein or carbohydrates in it will break a fast but most teas and herbs are OK. Supplements and meds often break ketosis directly or contain a filler that will. Many meds are dangerous to take while fasting. Does fasting lower testosterone? No, it raises it when the fast is broken by increasing lutenizing hormone. Fasting also increases insulin sensitivity, which helps with muscle building. Fasting activates autophagy (literally self eating). This will cause cells to recycle damaged proteins and foreign matter such as viruses. Weight loss from daily caloric restriction has 1/4 to 1/3 of the weight lost as lean tissue while many studies show fat loss from 36 h fasts without losing any lean tissue! The obese will lose loose skin while fasting, but the frail will have increased growth hormone release, which helps to make more lean tissue and reduce frailness. Fasts of 36-96 will not affect short term female fertility or affect menstrual cycle. They also may increase long term fertility for some women. Fasting reduces pain and anxiety by stimulating the endocannabinoid system, just like the effect of CBD oil Just 24h of fasting can cut your leptin levels in half! This reduces leptin resistance, which impairs immune function. Stomach acid is reduced over time while fasting and can allow for the healing of treatment resistant ulcers. Some patients may need continued acid reduction medication while fasting. Your brain also prefers to burn ketones at a rate of around 2.5 to 1 when they are available in equal quantity to glucose. Except for brief periods of very intense exercise, your body mainly burns fats in the form of free fatty acids. It increases mitochondrial function and repairs mitichondrial DNA, leading to improved ATP production and oxygen efficiency. Increased mitochondrial function also has the added benefit of increasing your metabolism, fighting infection and cancer prevention! Fasting releases BDNF and NGF in the blood which stimulates new nerve and brain cell growth. This can help a great deal with diseases like MS, peripheral neuropathy and Alzheimers. When not in ketosis, the brain can only burn carbohydrate, which produces a great deal of damaging ROS the brain has to deal with. Fasting also increases telomere length, negating some of the effects of aging at a cellular level. When you fast, this stimulates apoptosis in senescent or genetically damaged cells, destroying them. Senescent cells are responsible for many of the effects of aging and are a root cause of the development of cancer. A fasting mimicking diet for 3-5 days in a row also provides many of the same benefits as water fasting. FMD usually has 200-800 calories, under 18 g of protein and extremely low carbs. Exogenous ketones can aid with fasting, making it easier in healthy people and allowing some people with specific issues to fast in spite of them without worrying as much about hypoglycemia. They also help with dementia and many other issues even if you take them while not fasting! Glycine and trimethylglycine can also be useful supplements while fasting that won't break ketosis and have many benefits. Children, pregnant or nursing women should not fast for periods longer than 16 hours. People with pancreatic tumors or certain forms of hypoglycemia generally cannot fast at all. Type 1 diabetics can also fast but it is more complicated and should be approached with caution as it could lead to ketoacidosis. If you experience extreme symptoms of some kind, especially dizziness or tremors, then simply break the fast and seek advice.

Dr. Campbell and Dr. Grimes This is the best in depth explanation of Vitamin D I have seen on YT. Having watched at least 50 videos on the subject. Not just throwing out doses willynilly with no sensible explanation or evidence. On vitamin K2: as far as I am informed so far, it helps to prevent Ca Calcium from becoming ionized and sticking to artery walls but taking too much calcium is still a bad idea. Thanks very much for creating this outstanding video.

1 IU (International Unit) of vitamin D is the daily requirement for a 10g mouse = fiction. Using vitamin D mouse data to advise humans = fiction. Establishing 60kg person needs 6,000 IU/d then advising 3,000 IU/d for six months = fiction. Vitamin D levels do not go above around 150 nmol/L = fiction. 20,000 IU is generally speaking a week’s supply = fiction. I think Dr David Grimes is unscientific and misleading in answering the question how much vitamin D should I take.

15 years ago I worked with a family whose 18 mth old who was not thriving. Not gaining weight, lethargic, always sleeping ,her hair was only as long as eyelashes. She was under all normal levels for height and size. Her doctors did nothing (always blamed the parents for the diet etc)until a locum from Poland saw the child and scheduled blood tests for vit D levels. They came back very low and Vit D was prescribed. A few months later with no other pharmaceutical medications she began to grow, gain weight, had energy, her hair grew and she started to catch up on normal scales for weight and height. As time went further on she became happy, healthy and energetic. A totally different child to the 18 mth old with no energy, who slept more than normal.

All depends on what kind of healthcare system you live in. Any kind of social welfare type system will require you to pay out of pocket for levels like Vitamin D, unless you are suffering from a condition that requires the level. However you can always go to a private lab and have the level drawn yourself, you simply have to pay for it yourself. Which can be quite expensive, especially if you live in a place with already very expensive healthcare costs.❤

[@DELEKEM]

In Germany, we have to pay for the test out of our own pocket. The fact that a doctor doesn't want to do this is quite something.

I live with my family in a VERY sunny city near the equator. All my family and I got sick of colds or caugh 1 or 2 times a year, nothing severe, but every single year we were at least once sick of respiratory issues. 3 years ago I had all tested for vit D. Not surprising we were all in the 8ng/ml-15 range, very very low. I started everyone on 5,000 vit D a day. In those 3 years we have not had one single cold in our family, not once. Yes, we had COVID but the symptoms were not bad at all and we had COVID after many months of taking vit D. I had my test done a few days ago and currently I am at 98 ng ml and taking 10,000 IU a day since maybe 4 months ago. I did not notice any other health benefit other than this dramatic improvement in our respiratory health. Will continue to take vit D forever.

[@LTPottenger]

Fasting also helps a great deal with your immune system, and also allows you to make use of your vit D. As a fat soluble vitamin, if insulin is high it tends to remain locked within your fat cells. Some benefits of occasional extended fasting and lowering carbs in the diet: High blood pressure is lowered to normal levels very quickly while fasting. Fibrosis/scarring is reversed over time, including in the heart and lungs. Vitamin D plasma levels are increased as fasting improves metabolic health, and vitamin D in turn increases autophagy. When insulin is high, vit D stays locked in the blood cells. Fasting stimulates phagocytosis, the ingestion plaques, growths and pathogens by the immune system. This will also remove spikes quicker, whether natural or unnatural in origin! Your body recycles up to 1/3 of all immune bodies in a 72h fast, rejuvenating your entire immune system. This helps prevent the onset of new autoimmune conditions, which develop through a leaky gut and damaged immune system. Fasts from 36-96 h increase metabolic rate due to norepinephrine release! Blood clotting is lessened and clots and plaques are removed over time. Fasting restores your circadian rhythm to normal over time. T cells and T reg cells are vital in fighting cancer, autoimmune disease and infections but as we age the thymus stops making as many of them. Fasting releases stem cells, which then can become new T cells. It also releases growth hormone, which regenerates the thymus itself! Fasting restores NAD+ and increases nitric oxide release to open blood vessels. Fasting increases anti-aging Yamanaka factors and increases average telomere length in stem cell pools. Fasting can help with MS, Depression, BPD, Autism and seizures. When you move out of MTOR your body shuts down the building blocks of the cell required for viruses to replicate. The hunger hormone ghrelin also lowers with extended fasting and rises from dieting. What breaks a fast? Anything with protein or carbohydrates in it will break a fast but most teas and herbs are OK. Supplements and meds often break ketosis directly or contain a filler that will. Many meds are dangerous to take while fasting. Does fasting lower testosterone? No, it raises it when the fast is broken by increasing lutenizing hormone. Fasting also increases insulin sensitivity, which helps with muscle building. Fasting activates autophagy (literally self eating). This will cause cells to recycle damaged proteins and foreign matter such as viruses. Lowering insulin via fasting virtually eliminates chronic inflammation in the body. Weight loss from daily caloric restriction has 1/4 to 1/3 of the weight lost as lean tissue while many studies show fat loss from 36 h fasts without losing any lean tissue! The obese will lose loose skin while fasting, but the frail will have increased growth hormone release, which helps to make more lean tissue and reduce frailness. Fasts of 36-96 will not affect short term female fertility or affect menstrual cycle. They also may increase long term fertility for some women. Fasting reduces pain and anxiety by stimulating the endocannabinoid system, just like the effect of CBD oil Just 24h of fasting can cut your leptin levels in half! This reduces leptin resistance, which impairs immune function. Stomach acid is reduced over time while fasting and can allow for the healing of treatment resistant ulcers. Some patients may need continued acid reduction medication while fasting. Your brain also prefers to burn ketones at a rate of around 2.5 to 1 when they are available in equal quantity to glucose. Except for brief periods of very intense exercise, your body mainly burns fats in the form of free fatty acids. It increases mitochondrial function and repairs mitichondrial DNA, leading to improved ATP production and oxygen efficiency. Increased mitochondrial function also has the added benefit of increasing your metabolism, fighting infection and cancer prevention! Fasting releases BDNF and NGF in the blood which stimulates new nerve and brain cell growth. This can help a great deal with diseases like MS, peripheral neuropathy and Alzheimers. When not in ketosis, the brain can only burn carbohydrate, which produces a great deal of damaging ROS the brain has to deal with. Fasting also increases telomere length, negating some of the effects of aging at a cellular level. When you fast, this stimulates apoptosis in senescent or genetically damaged cells, destroying them. Senescent cells are responsible for many of the effects of aging and are a root cause of the development of cancer. A fasting mimicking diet for 3-5 days in a row also provides many of the same benefits as water fasting. FMD usually has 200-800 calories, under 18 g of protein and extremely low carbs. Exogenous ketones can aid with fasting, making it easier in healthy people and allowing some people with specific issues to fast in spite of them without worrying as much about hypoglycemia. They also help with dementia and many other issues even if you take them while not fasting! Glycine and trimethylglycine can also be useful supplements while fasting that won't break ketosis and have many benefits. Children, pregnant or nursing women should not fast for periods longer than 16 hours. People with pancreatic tumors or certain forms of hypoglycemia generally cannot fast at all. Type 1 diabetics can also fast but it is more complicated and should be approached with caution as it could lead to ketoacidosis. If you experience extreme symptoms of some kind, especially dizziness or tremors, then simply break the fast and seek advice.

Thank you John. You're a massive benefit to society. I'm in Canada; there are a ton of blood tests that could be saving the health care system billions by keeping us all healthier. Instead my GP tells me she can't order half the tests I want because the provincial health care system thinks it's saving money by banning GPs from ordering them. And because all the labs work for the provincial health care system (OHIP, in my case, in Ontario) I can't even ask for & pay for the testing myself. Oddly enough, a specialist CAN order them. But the whole point of ordering them - for me, the patient - is to ensure I don't need the specialist. It's bloody daft. Damn. My British heritage is leaking out. Oh hell, I'll say it: they're penny-wise & pound-foolish. Keep up the good work, John. We're all grateful.

The ambulance took us to Charring Cross A&E ,The Dr said she her bloods were clear and she was dehydrated,put her on a drip for an hour and told me I could take her home. The day after she collapsed again while I was getting her into bed...this time she didn't recover! My mother's GP said she was surprised they didn't take a urine sample and also that her white blood cell count was raised. I feel Dr Campbell would have been alot more thorough and kept her in the hospital.

I am 78 and have been taking Vitamin D for 25 years. I take Vitamin D3 (125 mcg) with K2 (2100 mcg) and my blood level averages 80 to 100 which is way above normal here in the US. Normal recommendation is above 40. My doctor was upset when I was at 110 so I lowered the dosage. My CRP is .03 which indicates low inflammation. I changed my primary doctor 20 years ago because he did not believe vitamin D level was important! I should add that I still work full time, am not overweight and walk 2 miles per day.

[@stephencarr68]

I'm 77 and of similar health. I lost my appetite for 10 days around this Christmas. This had never happened to me before. I had already lost all my fat and worried about losing muscle. I found a good doctor but consultation showed no causes. I felt fine but agreed blood should be drawn (12/26/2023). Two days later her office called me asking to have me stop taking the 5000 IU D/K2 supplement. My appetite quickly returned but the stress my body underwent when it was desperate for fuel was still there. New Year's Eve I went to a party at a resort. At one point I noticed that my leg muscle would start losing the automatic signal to keep me standing. This was short lived but I remember it happening a few times. Then after Midnight I am on the dance floor and all of a sudden I collapsed even though I was not dizzy. I got right back up on my feet but now scared. All January I suffered from chronic fatigue and brain fog. The middle of the month I finally made it to the YMCA and my additional muscle loss was confirmed. I also finally accessed the complete analysis of my blood taken on the day after Christmas. My D level was 103, all my hemoglobin and RBC results showed I was still quite anemic as always, but my C reactive protein was 23 and I didn't even know I had an infection!! Then I saw Dr. Campbell's interview with the retired Australian researcher on Ivermectin and Covid. I had taken the two Moderna shots 3 years ago. I went to the local livestock supply store and bought a tube of Ivermectin gel, sufficient to deworm a 1250 pound horse, for just $8. I believe my high CRP was due to a viral infection in my gut. I have been taking it daily ever since. I feel better than I have in 3 years. Ever since my vaccinations, I thought all my dysfunction was the result of stress dealing with a collapsing society, the need on moving, loneliness and the censorship when I tried to speak out. Now I have a lot of energy and my brain is functioning better every day (I made and use a high intensity NIR helmet).

[@remkojerphanion4686]

In Dutch psychiatry, the blood level of vitamin D, is a routine check. The recommended daily dose of vitamin D is, in my view, wholly inadequate - only 200 IU. I'm 64 y.o., male, healthy, 187cm (6' 1") tall, and my weight is 98kg. I have been taking 12000 IU vit. D each day, as well as 75 mcg vit K2. for about 2 years. It seems to work just fine for me. Over the last 4 years, my 83 year old mother had many minor aches and pains, and she suffered from regular bouts of low mood, but seemed healthy enough. She was on the recommended daily dose of vitamin D (200 IU). I tried to convince her to take more, but she was adamant that she would not. Her GP was against taking more vit. D, so it was a lost cause. Only 7 days ago, she contracted the flu (slight fever), and 5 days later, she passed away. It is 100% obvious to me: my mother had next to nothing in reserve, and her body simply couldn't deal with the infection. A decent level of vitamin D in her blood probably would have saved her - or so I'd like to think anyway.

[@olafstorbeck4777]

On the topic of Vitamin K2: According to my understanding, Vitamin D is a transcription factor for - among others - the so-called Vitamin K depend proteins like osteocalcin and matrix GLA protein. These proteins need Vitamin K2 for so-called post-transcripional carboxylation, where carboxylic groups are added by the Vitamin K2 in order to make them fully functional. As with high D levels the concentration of these proteins are upregulated, so Vitamin K2 is used up. If the double carboxylated osteocalcin is missing, the calcium can't be fixated in the bones, stays in the blood resulting in hypercalcinemia. So adequate Vitamin K2 prevents this by activation of the osteocalcin and matrix GLA protein (which removes the calcium from the soft tissue). So adding 100 mcg Vitamin K2 per day to your 5000IU Vitamin D3 is a good idea (that's what I do). Plus the K2 ramps up the proteins S and C, both are expressed in the blood vessels endothelium and are antithrombotic molecules. Isn't the human body amazing?

In his recent video about the ONS's change in methodology for the baseline of excess deaths, Campbell only showed a sheet of equations not the nine page explanation from the ONS. This was a deliberate attempt to paint the ONS as deceptive when it is Campbell who is duplicitous.

​​@@williamlee6079 "Pharmacokinetics of vitamin D toxicity" by Glenville Jones "Although current data support the viewpoint that the biomarker plasma 25(OH)D concentration must rise above 750 nmol/L to produce vitamin D toxicity, the more prudent upper limit of 250 nmol/L might be retained to ensure a wide safety margin."

Also was your vitamin d level this high because of UV exposure or supplements or sun? Please share your source

Over an hour of pure intelligent honest doctoring (in the best possible way). For those who have the attention span of a gnat at least this video is incredibly useful, unlike JR whose 3 hour videos are filled with bilge. I loved this and have ordered the book. Thank you Dr. Campbell and Dr. Grimes and much Love to all 👍💪🤗❤️

I don't do needles I'm afraid, so I have edged my bets and have been taking 5000 ius daily for months now and feel great. Haven't used my asthma inhaler since taking it nether. This information is so powerful and a real eye opener. Thank you both so much.

1 IU (International Unit) of vitamin D is the daily requirement for a 10g mouse = fiction. Using vitamin D mouse data to advise humans = fiction. Establishing 60kg person needs 6,000 IU/d then advising 3,000 IU/d for six months = fiction. Vitamin D levels do not go above around 150 nmol/L = fiction. 20,000 IU is generally speaking a week’s supply = fiction. I think Dr David Grimes is unscientific and misleading in answering the question how much vitamin D should I take. Did anyone listening to this have a good idea how much vitamin D they should take or did they find his advice confusing?
