i want to talk about vitiligo vitiligo  that’s how it’s pronounced what is it  

it’s a deep pigmentation problem you’re losing  your pigment in certain areas of the body the  

cells in control of adding pigments to the skin  called melanocytes have stopped working correctly  

now this condition is associated  with autoimmune conditions so  

a lot of times people with vitiligo have  other autoimmune conditions but there’s still  

a lot of unknowns about whether it is an  autoimmune condition or not what we do know  

about vitiligo is there’s a huge amount of free  radical damage okay there’s a lot of something  

called ross it’s creating oxidation free radical  damage and hydrogen peroxide okay now it just so  

happens that these two trace minerals zinc  and copper are involved in a very powerful  

antioxidant super oxide dismutase okay so zinc and  copper are needed to make this antioxidant also if  

a problem has a vitamin d receptor problem it’s  called a polymorphism for the vitamin d receptor  

they are four times more at risk of getting  vitiligo now one treatment they use for vitiligo  

would be using certain light therapy and we do  know there’s an association with light or even  

the sun and vitamin d and lastly there’s a  very interesting pilot study which i’m going  

to put a link down below that showed that  when a person took 35 000 ius of vitamin d3  

there is significant improvements in this  condition 14 out of 16 patients had a 25 to 75  

percent re-pigmentation that’s huge i did  another video on vitiligo but i didn’t talk  

about the dosage recommended for these three  supplements so this is what i would recommend  

if you have this condition i would recommend  taking a hundred milligrams of zinc per day  

i would take 35 000 ius of vitamin d3  every single day and i would take 1500  

micrograms not milligrams of copper  every single day to support this enzyme  

and also to help overcome any barriers of vitamin  d absorption vitamin d acts like cortisol in the  

body without the side effects and one of the  treatments for vitiligo is to take prednisone or  

cortisone cream why not take vitamin d instead and  hopefully improve this condition without the side  

effects and as a last note if you haven’t seen my  other videos on autoimmune conditions in general  

because vitiligo is associated with autoimmune  conditions i would highly recommend doing not  

just intermittent fasting but periodic prolonged  fasting this is essential to help your immune  

system regenerate all right thanks for watching  before you go if you have a question about a  

product or you’re new to keto and you want to  know how to begin keto or you’re on keto and  

you need a debug because it’s not going as smooth  i have a keto consultant standing by to help you  

this is just for the people in the us hopefully in  the future we’ll be able to answer everyone’s call
