so recently I had a question I want to

clarify relating to vitamin D and

calcium okay because one of the side

effects of too much vitamin D it’s

called hypervitaminosis D which is

vitamin D toxicity would be high levels

of calcium in the blood and of course

that could potentially lead to

calcification of your arteries okay so I

wanted to differentiate that from what

really happens and I’m gonna put a link

down below of some really great research

in this area vitamin D inversely

correlates to coronary artery

calcification which means when you

increase your vitamin D you actually

decrease the calcification in the

coronary artery okay that you would

think it would just be the opposite but

that’s not the way it works vitamin D is

a fat-soluble vitamin and it’s even

carried by lipoproteins like HDL and LDL

are lipoproteins that transports certain

fats cholesterol triglycerides and fat

soluble vitamins like vitamin A vitamin

E and even vitamin D since fat and

essential fatty acids and fats I bottom

ins don’t mix well with water they need

to be transported with these proteins

now you would assume that because

vitamin D has to do with calcium

absorption and increase in calcium in

the blood that that would automatically

just deposit and calcify your arteries

but calcium is very very tightly

controlled by a lot of different factors

one is vitamin k2 vitamin k2 works with

vitamin D in that it actually helps

remove excess calcium that vitamin D

created so it takes it out of the

arteries takes it out of the joints and

pushes it into the bone so let’s just

take for example an artery that’s filled

with calcium we have to understand in an

earlier beginning okay and the beginning

started with some type of oxidation to

the wall of the artery then you had

inflammation and that signaled the

body’s healing capacity to lay down

cholesterol in calcium well guess what

vitamin D is probably there to heal this

lesion not necessarily to lay down and

deposit calcium but

there is a part of the healing process

because it’s an anti-inflammatory

vitamin in fact taking vitamin D

actually reduces stiffness in the

arteries so it can really really help

someone the point I’m trying to make is

vitamin D is not the problem you you

need to look at the whole picture and I

always recommend if you’re taking

vitamin D also take vitamin k2 at the

same time and you’re not going to have

any problems with excess calcium even if

you have a large amounts of vitamin D if

you have vitamin K cube alright I’ll see

you later

so to prevent me from running out of

content I have a new survey I want to

find out what you are interested in so
