I never believed supplementation could help with my chronic insomnia. But I started reading about it and the first recommendation I came across was to start taking magnesium glycinate. That helped. But then I added Vit D with K2. To my surprise I started sleeping far more than in the past. While it’s not a perfect night’s sleep, it has improved and I’m grateful.

Add a B 50 for a while and this should get you into REM if you are deficient in Bs - then the biome will start producing the B's you need after reseeded - check out Dr. Stasha Gominak... a real sleep doctor lol .

Yes, that's excellent. I was on for several years, but as I was recently diagnosed with mild demtia I have switched to Magnesium L-theonate, as it's supposed to help your brain too.

I want to emphasize the overusing point you made. It does not take much for Vit D to build up to toxic levels within your body and cause hypercalcemia. They say taking K2 and Magnesium can help but in my own experience it did not help.

@davewhipp50514 ай бұрын
The amount of D3 required to get correct levels varies very widely between people, there is no one standard dose for everyone. If you are supplementing then you need to get your blood levels checked and adjust the dose accordingly. Google "Rightsleep" to find out how to fix your sleep issues. It fixed my insomnia.
@lmyers99994 ай бұрын
D is not going to cause Hypercalcemia at any reasonable level of supplementation up to 100k a day...for months... you had something else going on.. There are studies with people who got to 400ng and only then did they have a slight problem.. I take 50k of Vit D and have NO problem... I took 500k in one day to get the level up= and 30-50k a day now for several years....

Everyone in the comment section, You need adequate amounts of magnesium to actually absorb any minerals or vitamins at all! There are 7 different kinds of magnesium. I'm sure this Dr. Has a video on magnesium under his channel! On a side note; cell salts and pure liquid vitamin are the WAY TO GO! It goes under your tongue and into the blood stream. When ingesting a vitamin, you have to metabolize it through the gut. This can disturb the gut microbiome and throw your good bacteria off causing other issues within the body! Gut microbiome is life. The absorption rate also becomes lower and if you have inadequate amounts of magnesium within the body... you won't absorb or store what's properly needed.

@DonaldGaron8 ай бұрын
Like I said, I mixed vit D3 with dairy! You can use butter cause even if the calcium is highly bioavailable, there's only low amounts of calcium in it. But I would definitely avoid yogurt and cheese and even milk if you're gonna take Vit D, especially if it's high vit D3 intake. For example, if you don't eat dairy, sure, go for 5-10k IUs of vit D3 during winter. I wouldn't do that mixed with dairy though.@@Bulletproofyourhealth
