I had a horrible response to covid due to taking PPIs than tanked my magnesium & landed me in the ER needing an infusion. A month later I caught the alpha strain & I was about 3 days from going to the hospital for breathing issues - I could literally feel my lungs filling with fluid, but it finally subsided & I've had long covid lung & hearth issues since then (thich mucus mostly). I was taking D3-K2 (1000 IU/45 mcg) daily anyway. I haven't had covid since then, despite being in & out of doctor's offices & hospitals for GERD appointments & eventual surgery. Other than a multivitamin ever 3 days & the D3-K2 daily & magnesium & Iron once every 2 weeks or so & a pinch of moringa leaves every few days, that's all I take.

It's no longer a matter of educating your uninformed/resistant doctor, it's a matter of educating yourself and steering your medical treatment. While this is hard as it is time consuming to do, and a mental adjustment to the traditional culture of approaching healthcare by letting the doctor be the expert, we are being left with no other choice.

The standard blood test used in the UK only usually measures the inactive form of Vit D and even if this test showed good levels of Vit D by reference to what is recognised as "recommended" or " normal" levels it is still a very inaccurate indicator of Vit D levels. Also at the cellular level it does not make any allowance for Vitamin D resistance(VDR). The only way to accurately test is by measurement of the Parathyroid hormone test(PTH)

[@JonasKuehneMD]

In the US: Vitamin D3 in the blood is measured by a blood test that measures the amount of 25-hydroxyvitamin D, a form of vitamin D, in nanomoles per liter (nmol/L) or nanograms per milliliter (ng/mL):

[@DavidJones-gr1fb]

@@JonasKuehneMD Yes this is the same as UK. This form of Vitamin D, as I explained, is the inactive form. The active form is 1.25 (OH)2D3 calcitriol whose effectivity can be assessed,as I have indicated, by measuring the PTH. It is important to make sure first that the PTH glands are working normally. In Europe in some hospitals intravenous injections of calcitriol were given to Covid patients in intensive care and in those cases no deaths were recorded!!! In UK this treatment was not used. In places, I think Spain and Portugal, calcitriol is available in tablet form over the counter but not available in UK. I don't know about the US?

I'm glad you know that all vitamin Ds are not the same. There is no replacement for the Vitamin D you get from sun's rays. That's why Jesus said Time & Time again, to get up/lift yourself up and GO OUT into the sun. He also did this with the Paralytic man. [*Jesus Heals a Man Let Down through the Roof of a House* 17 On one of the days while Jesus was teaching, some proud religious law-keepers and teachers of the Law were sitting by Him. They had come from every town in the countries of Galilee and Judea and from Jerusalem. The power of the Lord was there to heal them. 18 Some men took a man who was not able to move his body to Jesus. He was carried on a bed. They looked for a way to take the man into the house where Jesus was. 19 But they could not find a way to take him in because of so many people. They made a hole in the roof over where Jesus stood. Then they let the bed with the sick man on it down before Jesus. 20 When Jesus saw their faith, He said to the man, “Friend, your sins are forgiven.” 21 The teachers of the Law and the proud religious law-keepers thought to themselves, “Who is this Man Who speaks as if He is God? Who can forgive sins but God only?” 22 Jesus knew what they were thinking.

Take your bed and go to your home.” 25 At once the sick man got up in front of them.

Possibly a stupid question: if calcium is the main risk of too much vitamin D (hypercalcemia) why not measure calcium blood levels to ensure that there the person doesn't take too much vit D, or not enough K2, Mg and Zn?

[@mannfahrtrad5773]

This ^ indeed. A calcium- in-serum test costs pennies, a Calcidiol(Vit-D)-in-serum test costs 25-30 Euros (in Germany). You could also test for parathormon. High PTH and low calcium indicate a vitamin D deficiency. If your calcium is is normal and you have low or not elevated PTH your Viamin-D intake may or may not be sufficient - but it is at least NOT TOO HIGH. Its also good to know the human body makes around 20,000 IU of Vitamin D from sunlight per day (and within 20-60 minutes in case of variations of white skin) if sun is available at the needed UV-level of higher than UV-index 3 (4 and upwards, that is), after the limit has been reached the conversion rate dramatically drops. So, in the absence of sunlight taking 20,000 IE of vitamin D per day most likely is safe if you have no other existing health conditions contradicting it. However, take cofactors Vitamin K2MK7 and plenty of Magnesium as well. Toxic dose for K2 was looked for, but was not found and is not known, ther eis one, no doubt, but it must be damn hiogh . Magnesium gets consumed aplenty when activating Vitamin D from your reserves, so you need plenty of it, and you need the more of it the higher your vitamin D consumption is. You can get magnesium-deficient if taking too little magnesium but high doses of vitamin D, and then get symptoms of magnesium deficits! K2 should be MK7, Magnesium at least should not be Mg-oxide, but other forms of Magnesium. I know this stuff, but I am no doctor, so i do not tell anyone what he should do and take. I only say what I do, within my own self-responsibility: I take 20,000 IE Vit D, 3000 mg K2 MK7, 4500mg of Magensium in five different formulas, split on three times per day. Since many years, since before Covid 19 arrived. No digestive problems with the Magnesium this way: zero, none. Have not even had a single flu since I started, never got ill at all, since many years. Before I started to supplement this and some more: I caught a cold every 6 weeks, a feverish infection once or twice per year, and soem other issues. All health issues are blown away. Last blood test had Calcidiol at 88 ng/mol. Have no intention to change anything. I am male, 57 years, BMI slightly too high according to theory, 25.2. Note, some products combine Vit D and K2 in one pill. That usually means 150-200 mcgr of K2, no matter how much vit D is dosed in that pill. That is WAY TOO LITTLE! Get a separate K2 pill and then think not in micrograms but high milligrams or low grams ranges. Again: its very, very unlikely you can do harm there. The risk of doing harm if not taking enough K2 while tkaing high levels of vitamin D imho is decisively greater. I attribute my health mostly to the high vitamin D consumption and the fact that my diet is carnivore and carbohydrate-avoiding (lost 17 kg of overweight, gained 5 kg, and then turned stable at that level), however, i also consume - amongst other supplements - 3000 mg of liposomal vitamin C per day, and literature makes me strongly assume that this vitamine also plays a very dominant role. Every body's metabolism is slightly different, varies in nuances, so a dose of something that is perfect for one person must not be the same that is perfect for somebody else, while the basic rules of our biochemical nature remain unchanged for all humans. Get informed a bit and offside the mainstream medicine, dont trust the mainstream media, and then use your brain.

[@marilynroper5739]

You should consider creating D3 from sunlight rather than a pill if possible. This D3 will be sulfated and make it more efficient since it becomes water soluble. Same with cholesterol. This too will be sulphated and actually reduce the requirement for ldl. So in effect the concentration of D3 in your blood can be lower if created from the sun, but be better.

He’s told me to by D3 from the chemist at 1000IUL. I tried to talk to him but was dismissed as I was beyond my double appointment of 10 mins

[@JonasKuehneMD]

Sorry about your experience there. I agree that 800 IU is very low. Once you are on your correct dose, it would be great to do a blood test to confirm that you are in the right range. I also strongly recommend to take it together with K2.

[@mandograssable]

I have been taking my Vit D and K2 together each morning, and in my last blood work, my calcium was high, and my doctor said to stop taking it. I don't take any calcium. I will stop the K2 with the D3 each morning and take it in the evening to see if that helps.

[@JonasKuehneMD]

You could try to decrease the D3 and increase K2. K2 helps to direct calcium to bone and should decrease blood calcium.

Hypercalcemia, is far less of a concern than the missing co factors, zinc, mag, K2MK7

[@barrylaurent6485]

Having practiced general dentistry for 45 years, I have always been very conservative and honest with my patients. That said, a dental prophylaxis or cleaning is TREATMENT defined as the removal of hardened plaque and other tooth accumulated debris at or above the gum line in the absence of periodontal disease (the inflammation of the connective tissue and bone due to subgingival calculus and endotoxins on the root surface). To the patient, this is rarely symptomatic but can result in loss of the supporting structures and the tooth itself. It is diagnosed by a set of dental radiographs and a full mouth measuring of the gum pockets around all erupted teeth. Are you advocating that DOCTORS of DENTAL SURGERY perform a treatment (cleaning) based upon a patient's demand, and not review the medical history, oral cancer exam, tooth and gum evaluation and without consulting radiographs? Dentists have been successfully sued for acquiescing to what you are advising when there was underlying decay or periodontal disease which resulted in serious infection and tooth loss. As a physician, would you allow a new patient to dictate treatment without your thorough diagnosis based upon your examination and recommended tests and imaging? Of course, I am against excessive radiography, but I would never jeopardize my good name and career because I allowed a patient to demand I violate the standards of care!

Can you say how your comment relates to vitamin D?

[@stevecollins6694]

Am I thick ….what has this got to do with vitamin D and K2?

[@JonasKuehneMD]

I am not sure you are referring to the correct video here. I am very much in favor of preventive dental care and teeth exam and cleaning. I highly value the diagnostic evaluation of dentists in the oral area. X-rays are usually minimal radiation exposure due to the small area examined. So again I’m not sure you’re referring to the Correct video here.

[@barrylaurent6485]

@@JonasKuehneMD Thanks for your reply, you are correct, my comment was placed under the wrong video by KZbin. It was meant for Dr Suneel Dhand's video warning new patients to avoid a full exam with x-rays by a dentist and demand that only a cleaning was necessary. I have profound respect for Dr. Campbell, his guest and your channel for highlighting the need for strong blood levels of Vit D. During Covid-19, I advised my patients to get their levels tested and supplement when appropriate to reduce their chances of getting infected. I was amazed how few PMD's were putting emphasis on this simple, inexpensive and safe therapy. Again, my apologies for the first posting.

[@JaneDennigner]

I have heard several Dr.s Recommend d3,k2,mag and zinc but never tells you what kind to take? So many to choose between oxide,citrate,on and on HELP!

[@JonasKuehneMD]

Magnesium glycinate has a high absorption. Citrate is ok as well

[@JaneDennigner]

Thank you for your quick response, now how much of each to take k2? Zinc?magnesium? I already take 10,000 d3 ,.and 😊

I had a lot of trouble with restless legs syndrome for decades. Started taking D3 at the beginning of the pandemic and my restless legs are a distant memory.

[@JonasKuehneMD]

Amazing! It’s shocking how a deficiency in such a cheap vitamin can cause so many physical symptoms.

Any research on Coimbra Protocol with Cancer?

[@JonasKuehneMD]

I was not familiar with this protocol, but it seems to require a very high dose of vitamin D3. It is mostly used in conditions like auto immune disorders. I would have to do more reading to really get a better grasp on this topic. Found this on the net: “Coimbra and co-workers, after two decades of clinical experience, state that the therapeutic approach of the protocol relies on doses of vitamin D that range from 40,000 IU to 300,000 IU per day [17,18]. The conventional starting dose in multiple sclerosis, for example, is approximately 1.000 IU vitamin D3 per kg body weight [19]. In Germany, this therapeutic protocol for autoimmune patients has been used since 2016 [20]. Underlying the CP is the hypothesis of the non-hereditary, but acquired form of vitamin D resistance and insufficient biological activity of 1,25(OH)2D3, which both may be overcome by high doses of vitamin D3, compensating the resistance. “ My concern here would be that those doses, even with low calcium consumption that could be a high risk of hypercalcemia in some people. This protocol should be used together with frequent lab work under the supervision of a physician in my opinion.

[@Roberto-cg2gr]

@@JonasKuehneMD Cancer is far worse than hypercalcemia. Besides my intuition tells me that Mega dose Vitamin D can help. Hope RFK Jr will support a trial. No harm if doctors are giving up on stage 4 cancer patients. Or maybe at least half of Coimbra protocol say 500 IU per kg weight or even 250 IU per kg weight

[@auldburdlaughin]

I am 73, female living in Scotland and I take D3, K2, Zinc, Magnesium since before covid. Never had covid despite looking after my sister. She is frightened to take d3 etc, as she had her thyroid removed some 10 years ago and during the op her parathyroid was damaged so she now has to take a raft of medication daily. Would she be able to add d3 etc safely? She is 70 and in reasonably good health, walks lots, goes to the gym regularly.

[@JonasKuehneMD]

I would recommend to check with her endocrinologist, but generally vitamin D3 + K2 is recommended. From NIH: The results of this study support a change in clinical practice and suggest that all patients undergoing thyroidectomy should be discharged with continued calcium and/or vitamin D supplementation for 1-2 weeks.

[@auldburdlaughin]

@JonasKuehneMD Many thanks for answering, I'll show her your reply.
