Years back I was sleepy 24/7 Would sleep 18 hours, wake up and make it to the couch and fall right back asleep. No matter how much I slept it felt like I hadn't slept at all. I also had horrible sleep paralysis. Got diagnosed with narcolepsy. It took almost a year and many doctors until one finally tested my vitamin D and they said I pretty much had none at all. Was put on 50,000ius a day for a week and was a new person. Then I took 5,000ius a day after that and was completely back to normal within a month. It saved my life.

I started taking vitamin D during my treatment, and my tumours completely disappeared during chemo, even before surgery or radiotherapy.

[@blackishpariah]

Take that shit boi

[@chaosswa-ee-ty5911]

What i do as a black person is use my melanin to my advantage. I stay in the sun all day, just 1-2 days a week. I just read, walk, watch Netflix no sunscreen. Bc that slows the absorption through the skin for everyone. I won't get cancer or get burned. so I just hang out. Drink lemonade. And my levels are optimal. This way I get everything I need in one day. Supplements can linger in the body and cause you problems later. Look it up. A good nap in the sun is everything. Wake up and the sun is down, you are charged up like a battery.

[@DopamineMVWM]

Lester Lester I hear what you’re saying, but me as a very active person who is outside all the time, I can promise you, you will never get anywhere near enough vitamin D if you’re high up in the northern hemisphere without vitamin D supplements. I really recommend that you get on that shit. Just consider for a second the fact that our ancestors were outside ALL the time and yet they were still so goddamn vitamin D deficient that they evolved to have WHITE SKIN, that’s fucking insane! It just shows how crucial vitamin D is and how effective melanin is at blocking it out.

[@chaosswa-ee-ty5911]

@@DopamineMVWM I live near DC. I birthed twins and I was never deficient. And they were feeding on me the entire time taking my nutrients for them. Lol What you are forgetting is how your body is also efficient at storing things you need for later.this means having good habits in the sun can literally prepare you for the winter when you will be out less. So yes you have to eat well, do somethings you would sit around and do in a/c outside. I have built up good habits/lifestyle for years regarding being outside. Therefore I have built up a storage of vitamin D. I must admit I do have a sweet job, I work in the park for 8 hours in the sun. Nap and dine in the sun on weekends and my stress level is pretty low. You helped me realize that even among black people, different people need different amounts. Stress can zap your vitamin D. Someone could be going through something that might cause you to need more and supplements might be necessary for them. But I encourage those who are younger to start these habits bc by me spending years leisurely in the sun has allowed me to develop enough to store for bad times. And my diet is pretty good too. But please take K with your D, bc the excess calcium from D will cause you problems with mobility later in life . Look it up. Be well and Take care!

[@rkstevenson5448]

I discovered nearly a year ago that my vitamin D levels were extraordinarily low. I'm a redhead and I live in Arizona, so I avoid going outside, especially when it's sunny (which, for this state, is most of the time). I got started on an vitamin D supplement, the same amount Joe is taking, 5,000 IUs. And it dramatically changed my life. I'd been dealing with depression for most of my adult life; gone. I'd been dealing with severe nerve pain; gone. My mental faculties felt like they were finally working properly again. I could control my temper, which had been an issue for years. As it turns out, vitamin D plays a lot of roles in your system, and if you are deficient, it can cause serious issues. Not just physical, but mental and emotional problems. That blood test was the smartest thing I've ever done. $120 out of pocket for a slew of tests that were important, and it changed my life for the better.

[@bluceree7312]

That is great news, thanks for sharing. Same here, about the test. I suspected I was deficient for years, with similar symptoms like you, and more besides. Wanted to take the test but never did for laziness and various other reasons. Just found out on Friday I have low levels (more insufficient than deficient). Will see my Dr on Tuesday and we'll see how he suggests to deal with it.

If I miss it for 3 or 4 days I find my mood drops and anxiety increases. I've not had a cold or anything like that in 2 years, despite people around me at work getting covid again recently (although I've had 1 jab and 2 boosters since they came out). I'm a strong believer in this.

[@LeanneCaster-np8xi]

Hi Joe, I just started watching you. I am glad you ventured into this subject. I used to work outside all the time then had to switch inside due to a job change. I was only getting 4 hours average on most days then my health went down. Went to my doctor who pain pills and it continued to get worse. I went to a wellness doctor who took my metabolic blood work and checked my back and neck X-ray. He did. An immediate adjustments in my neck and and back followed by therapy and 5,000 units of D3 with fish oil and a multi. I added carrot juice and aloe Vera juice to my daily regimen. Not only did I feel better prior to Covid but I never had Covid and never took a shot and never will. I am so pissed off that to this day it is not a regular standard to check your metabolic bloodwork. They do not tell you about D3 let alone how much and that you need magnesium for it to work and there are different kinds of magnesium so you have ti check. My theory is they make a ton of money on keeping the chronic just that chronic and chemical dependent. The FDA needs to be sued or someone held criminally liable or both! I can tell you that I am working with Dad right now that is 93. He had two spine surgeries at 88 due to a bone infection but gave me no name for it. They also said he has vascular dementia. Long story short, the more I looked at his health history the more I believe I found some of the root causes. He had been taking large amounts of calcium each day for years thinking it was helping his bones when in fact it does the opposite when you have too much and your not getting the other vitamins to help process it. The excess goes to you arteries where it causes blockage and guess what? I had a vascular study performed on my Dad a year after his surgery and he had 50 percent occlusion in his artery in the back of his neck. Also he had been taking PPIs for decades because he had an ulcer and acid reflux but yet the doctor allowed it. You are not supposed to take it for more than two weeks! I found out that as people get older they make less stomach acid and now you are purposefully blocking it. Without enough stomach acid certain foods cannot be broken down to be broken again in the small intestines which you become deficient in magnesium and other essential vitamins. Read the effects of magnesium deficiency and others and you see they have a host of physical and emotional effects on someone especially at 93. I am venting here but I am really pissed that in this year we are still figuring this out . He is doing better since we made some changes on our own. We just changed it over the last month and will probably take months to see significant changes. His doctor started to tell me well what about his quality of life? I just about dropped kicked him. Really? Quality of life???Whose quality? His or others? My guess is he would like to absorb what little he can eat and remember! Thanks for listening but I hope people realize dementia can caused by medication and lack of D3 and magnesium. It’s not just, oh well that’s it for you.

[@rchergarrett]

I completely understand your frustration and concern about the state of healthcare and the need for a more holistic approach to wellness. It's clear from your personal experiences and the care you're providing for your father that nutrition, lifestyle, and understanding the impacts of various medications are essential for overall health. You've highlighted the importance of checking metabolic bloodwork, Vitamin D3, and magnesium levels, and how deficiencies can lead to various health issues, including dementia. It's true that a more comprehensive approach to healthcare, considering individual needs and factors, is crucial. Your dedication to your father's well-being is commendable, and I hope that your efforts lead to significant improvements in his health. It's crucial to advocate for better education and awareness about these issues, so people can make informed decisions about their health and well-being. Thank you for sharing your experiences, and I hope that others can learn from your insights and experiences as well.

I thought I was dying and didnt have the energy to panic. I couldnt even feel my pulse. I made myself get up out of bed and just walking slowly to the car felt like I had ran 100 mile marathon at full speed. Once got to the clinic and into the room my BP went to 70/60 and at rest my pulse was at 55bpm. Once I got my blood work back they told me I was VitD deficient. They told me normal levels is 30 and above and mine was 12. They told more I was literally in stroke zone. I got VD2 they prescribed and not even in a day the recovery was felt progressive that whole day. By the end of week I had energy. It was then I didnt realize how important VD to every part of the body, specifically the organs. Another thing is many of the deaths from Korona the patients were found deficient in VD.

My wife spoke with a doctor at length when COVID19 appeared, mostly for my benefit due to lung disease. We started taking vitamins B complex, C, D, and zinc. We got COVID19 in January of 2022 and while it caused weakness, sore skin and difficulty wanting to eat, we didn't have any problems with lungs/breathing. I thought if I caught it I would probably die due to lung complications with my emphysema and COPD. While it took us 1-3 weeks to recover, none of us had the breathing complications that were so prevalent with COVID19. I attribute this to the vitamins my wife insisted that we have been taking for the last 18 months prior to our illness. This video confirms that the vitamins were instrumental in us surviving the disease with minimal complications.

Dude….I just found out today I’m deficient and thinking back to both times I had Covid, I felt like I was dying. My breathing was so bad…my partner was so scared for me. I’ve had nonstop sinus infections for 2 years now, complete sinus surgery (8 hours) and the infections persist. And I’m not talking about a little bit of sinus congestion, mine always turn into bronchitis or pneumonia. Antibiotics help but within a week of finishing them the infection is back. After my last go with Covid, I suffered with major breathing problems. I was put on symbicort. No one fkn checked my blood for vitamin d until I started showing symptoms of lupus, as it runs in my family. I go to a rheumatologist and she was the one who ran ALL the tests. 8 vials of blood, pee and a chest X-ray. Vitamin D deficiency. I have other health problems that have popped up over the last 2 years and I strongly believe this is why.

Moved in, could get up first 5 stairs, struggled with next 15 or so. Was always super tired, around noon just hung in there trying to staying awake. Slept 8 hours, still no energy. Thought the moving broke me? Went to doc, blood work, had extreme Vitamin D deficiency. He said i would experience extreme fatigue and short term memory loss. He was so right! I backed my business bus up, saw a car behind me, but ran right into it having forgotten about it being there. Made a wde turn into my driveway and ended up not moving as i banged into my neighbors car forgotten it was there, just tired, plus sun was in my eyes. Many dumb mistakes and memory glitches. Started to take 10k units of D for 7 years now. All symptoms improved fast, regained energy and short term memory back. 2020 had elevated V D, doc said to reduce intake. Got Covid April 2022 right when mask mandate dropped now on less around 5k units D. Wasnt bad, 3 days fever but fatigue and longer cough prevailed. I swear by vitamin D and will always supplement. How one Vitamin can screw up my energy and memory so bad is amazing to see how the body needs a full balance to function. Pescatarian for 5 plus years now. Best energy levels where at start of my new diet, only needed 4 to 5 h of sleep, still not sleeping much more than that now. You are what you eat.

@Davit M i just use the Sam's club brand. Don't think it matters that much. 5000IU per pill. I'm frugal. 😂

[@Thomas-1976]

Been taking 8000iu of vitamin d3 (among other vitamins) since January 2021. In October 2021 my wife was hospitalised for 2 weeks with severe covid-19 but survived and very luckily didn’t go on a ventilator. We tested her d3 level when she came out and it was 185nmol/l so we certainly believe it helped her to survive.

There's probably underlying deficiencies she also had if her symptoms were bad enough to be hospitalized.

Take more! I started with 2000IU's, then 5k, then 12k, now 15k. My blood tests proved I needed that much. I work at a desk job and only get sun on the weekends. Since doing this, I've felt much better overall. You can't really overdose on it with 20k. I don't know where her studies came from but several doctors say otherwise. So don't be afraid to increase it to 10 or 15k IU's.

@@babytt8487 bro you're not supposed to take 50k a day. That's 350,000IUs a week. 700k in two weeks whilst 20k a day will only amount to 280k. Do this for months and you're taking much more than someone taking only 20k

Started vit d3 5 years ago for anxiety as suggested by my therapist. Not sure but I haven't seen my therapist for 5 years. Haven't had a panic attack in 5 years after suffering with them for 20 years. So I can't 100% say its vit D, but I'll never quit taking it. Also wise to take d3/k2 together as the k2 helps the d3 get to where it needs to go. I also suggest Magnesium.

[@lilibee3443]

I also take D3 and k2 together. It’s even better to add a vitamin c/zinc Supplement.

[@ChrisFromNY]

I need a good supplement, can you recommend anything in particular?

[@djdc81]

Please elaborate!!

[@bobbyt9431]

Cod liver oil has active A, D, and K2. Though A and D compete for absorption. I take beef liver pills and eat mixed nuts in the morning and D + K2 in the evenings.

How much vitamin D3 do you take each day ?

[@stygianapproach]

Who else just went and popped 5k IU of vitamin D after watching this?

[@hayman122]

No

[@essel23fly]

That’s very dangerous. The normal daily intake of vitamin d is a few hundred iU a day. 5000 is many times over. Vitamin D is fat soluble so it gets stored in your body, if you take more than you need it’s toxic and has no quick way of being used by the body like water soluble vitamins. Also it’s a hormone not a vitamin so it can have a big negative effect if you miss use it. The best way to get the vitamin is by the sun. But be careful if you do the oral method because your system can’t convert it as efficiently as getting it through the skin.

[@rocketman99]

@essel23fly to overdose on vitamin D you need to take 20k iu a day for 3 months

[@essel23fly]

Bercan Beschadigun Kılıç you’re not going to die I’m just saying you’re going to damage your system as you get too much and calcify your body because it’s not water soluble. Rat poison for example is made out of vitamin d. There’s a big difference in ingesting it vs making it from the sun.

[@cameronmiller6240]

essel23fly did you listen to the podclass? Dr Patrick acknowledges the best way to get vitamin d is from the sun however........some people have really dark skin and woukd need to spend an absurd amount of time outside to make enough from the sun, some people (like me) live in northern parts of the world where for most of the year you aren’t getting much, if any uv b from the sun anyway and finally lots of people spend lots of time indoors nowadays.

[@Ag112493]

During the pandemic i was working contruction out under the blaring sun 10-12 hours a day along with around 6 thousand other workers and it was really rare to hear about a worker catching covid and the ones that did it wasnt anything worst than a regular cold. We all rode on and off the worksite in busses and we got tested weekly. I my self never got sick.

Vitamin D we always understood it to be the sunshine / happy vitamin. You don't hear that anymore. Also when you have MILLIONS of people MISPLACED in other COUNTRIES and not getting the proper health analysis or diagnosis. It can be heartbreaking. All cultures are different and diet is different. This is really a great time to lead and heal a lot of people.
