you know at one time I had zero

awareness

about the importance of vitamins and

what they did on our bodies especially

vitamin D I’ve maybe heard about it

maybe you get it from the Sun from the

foods I just had zero data on vitamin D

and it just wasn’t even on my radar but

over time when I gained more knowledge

about Vitamin D it is the most important

vitamin out of all the vitamins because

if you’re deficient but your immune

system doesn’t work you’re going to have

inflammation you can have all sorts of

issues with sleep and digestion and the

list goes on and on and on but they may

know some of the common reasons why the

majority of the population is deficient

in vitamin D

gut inflammation no gallbladder as we

age our skin becomes thicker we can’t

absorb vitamin D from the Sun the darker

the skin is the less vitamin D

absorption because of the melanin the

pigment in the skin the more obese

someone is

the more diabetic they are the more

insulin resistance they have the less

vitamin D they’re going to absorb and

also where they live if they live at a

high latitude in the north they’re not

going to get much deep and it’s

virtually impossible to get vitamin D

from your diet people are also more

aware that their genetics have a big

play in vitamin D too there are many

different genes that a person can have a

problem with that either makes it

difficult to convert into the active

form of vitamin D or just absorb vitamin

D and I have that problem myself then

you have if a person has an infection

microbes can downgrade vitamin D

receptors and block the absorption

vitamin D as their strategy to overcome

your immune system if someone has a

fatty liver or they smoke or they

consume sugar or they go through stress

they’re going to absorb less vitamin D

if they’re on a Statin or on a low-fat

diet they’re not going to get as much

vitamin D if there’s pollution in the

air or even if they’re getting too many

Omega six fatty acids with the soil oil

the corn oil the canola oil that will

block vitamin D but I want to talk about

seven things that you probably have

never heard of before and they’re very

interesting and they’re very important

to know number one

the majority of side effects that may

occur when you take vitamin D okay and

I’m going to list them fatigue insomnia

constipation diarrhea skin rash nausea

headache pain all could occur if you’re

low in magnesium magnesium is such an

important mineral in relationship to

Vitamin D it helps it work better and if

you’re deficient in magnesium which a

lot of people are vitamin D may give you

additional issues so in other words if

you take more Vitamin D it can

exaggerate an already deficient

situation with magnesium now of course

the side effect from very large amounts

of vitamin D over many many months

potentially creating hypercalcemia could

give you kidney stones but this is very

very rare and this I think is the

probably the biggest fear they don’t

realize that you’d have to take a lot

more over a long period of time before

you got kidney stones or hypercalcemia

and if you’re taking magnesium and other

factors related to this vitamin D like

K2 the odds of you getting hypercalcemia

too much calcium in the blood even go

even lower but drinking a little bit

more water like 2.5 liters of fluid per

day can really almost eliminate the

formation of kidney stones because

kidney stones form when there’s a super

concentrated amount of this calcium in

the urine so if your urine is so diluted

it can never be super concentrated

number two taking vitamin D

infrequently Works a little bit better

than on a regular basis so if we compare

taking 10 000 IUS of vitamin D every day

as a maintenance dose and you instead

did 50 000 IUS once a week or twice a

week that might work a little better for

you and this is good because sometimes

people forget to take vitamin D and they

think is it going to do any good if I

take it if you few times a week and the

answer is yes remember vitamin D is a

fat soluble vitamin so when it goes in

the body it gets stored in the fat cells

and it’s it can be released over time

it’s not like a water soluble vitamin

like some of the B vitamins and vitamin

C that you would want to take those on a

daily basis the next thing that people

don’t realize is this when you consume

like farm-raised fish which I mean it’s

so so common in restaurants and you just

need to start reading the labels

farm-raised fish has four times less

vitamin D as well cod fish grain-fed

animals compared to grass-fed animals

have much less vitamin D and chickens

and pigs that roam outside and that are

able to get out of the barn and they’re

exposed to the Sun have much more

vitamin D then these pigs and chickens

that are confined to a a structure in

fact when a pig or a chicken and doesn’t

get to see the daylight they’re like

three times less vitamin D all right

number four and this is really really

interesting

out of all the factors that can improve

your health okay vitamin D is behind

eating a healthy diet and exercise all

right number five

vitamin D2 which is mainly you have to

get a prescription for

is very different than vitamin D3 in

fact vitamin D2 actually in some Studies

have worsened MS okay versus vitamin D3

has greatly improved Ms lupus another

autoimmune disease is not affected by D2

but it is with D3 the studies in vitamin

D2 do not decrease mortality but the

studies with vitamin D3 do and taking

vitamin D2 can actually inhibit the

absorption of vitamin D3 all right next

Point okay some people when they go out

and get exposure to the sun they think

that they’re getting a lot of vitamin D

when they’re getting exposed to the Sun

for like 10 minutes so let’s say Best

Care scenario you’re young you don’t

have any of these other barriers of

absorption vitamin D and you’re exposing

a lot of your skin to the Sun for about

10 minutes you’re only going to get 400

IU use the vitamin D that is very very

low amounts so just realize that it

takes a bit more exposure to Sun to get

enough vitamin D alright and last point

that I think is very very important

because a lot of people take vitamin D3

and they don’t realize that

manufacturing companies are adding corn

syrup to vitamin D in fact the

manufacturing company that I work with

in Europe basically told me with a high

level of certainty I was the only one to

ask or request a vitamin D product

without corn syrup and I would suspect a

similar thing is happening in the U.S

but I don’t know for sure so when you

get a vitamin D product make sure they

don’t add the corn syrup or the

maltodextrin now that you know those

seven factors I want to take your

awareness even higher if you haven’t

seen this video in vitamin D you should

check it out I put it up right here
