there’s another study that i read recently that  talks about vitamin d levels linked to depressed  

teens so i want to talk about that one of the  symptoms of a vitamin d deficiency would be  

sadness hopelessness but there’s many more too  loss of interest loss of concentration even  

thoughts of suicide is linked to a low vitamin  d level which is quite incredible the problem  

is that not only does this involve teens but it  affects everyone in fact 75 of the population has  

low vitamin d levels now specifically for teens  here’s the problem first of all they don’t get  

enough sun they’re indoors on the computer a lot  of times they don’t consume enough vegetables to  

get magnesium which is essential for vitamin d to  work so they usually have magnesium deficiencies  

as well teenagers tend to snack a lot that creates  insulin resistance which also blocks vitamin d  

they’re usually on a high carb diet which creates  insulin resistance which blocks vitamin d and if  

they’re consuming fructose as in high fructose  corn syrup that can block vitamin d more than  

glucose actually now if a teen is overweight or  obese that can increase the need for vitamin d  

so that’s going to exaggerate the vitamin d  deficiency and also if they have darker skin  

that can block vitamin d absorption from the uv  light now other symptoms of a vitamin d deficiency  

is achy joints low back pain lethargy insomnia  anxiety so this is a very very simple solution to  

a very big problem unfortunately a lot of kids are  then put on antidepressant medication when i think  

they should just take some vitamin d 10,000 IUs and i would also include magnesium with it i  

would also include vitamin k2 because all of those  together will enhance the absorption of vitamin d3  

and actually greatly elevate the mood in addition  to giving your teen vitamin d i would also highly  

recommend getting them to get out in the sun  consume more vegetables right stop the snacking  

there’s something called intermittent fasting  if you’re not familiar with this i put a link  

down below and get on a low carb diet  which is in that same link down below  

because that will greatly improve the metabolism  and help them lose weight and help them actually  

absorb vitamin d all right thanks for watching hey  before you go real quick i have a course entitled
