I agree! I've been taking Pau D'Arco in liquid form since January, and have not had any allergies or respiratory-related sicknesses that normally would cause me to get sick and miss work. I'll stick to it even if it's a placebo effect 😃
This doesn’t surprise me. I read an article a few months back that an elderly gentleman died from vitamin D toxicity. Turned out he had a multitude of conditions, but they decided to attribute his death to the vitamin d.
My dad is 76 yrs, has epilepsy, hypertension,and diabetes. During the COVID pandemic everyone in the house was ill including me. The only person who was positive without any symptoms in the house was him. Later we found out his doctor prescribed him VitD 50,000 IU once per week, but he misunderstood as per day and was taking it. I believe my dad was saved by the mistake he made taking it everyday. When he got tasted negative, he switched it to once per week as the doctor instructed.
I watch the video where he recommended 10,000 IU everyday. But he said it was better if taken in frequently. So he recommended taking 40,000 IU on one day, waiting a few days and then taking 30,000, and then taking it that way during the week.@@ehtelmeeder3560
I always suffered from severe headaches, fatigue, and exhaustion, and I used to relieve my headaches with painkillers. After I heard about the importance of vitamin D from you, I started taking it every day. Today, I am a new person. For three months, I have not taken a single painkiller pill.
@@arcelyparedess I assume by taking separately you mean not both in the same tablet? It makes sense, because if you think, or know, that you are getting enough D through your diet you may want to try only K2 for a while to help "distribute" it where it's needed, and see how it goes. You don't have the option of manipulating the ratio if you take both in the same tablet. If combination D/K2 works the ratio must be the key, so you want that option.
@arcelyparedess I used to think the same as I was told they compete for absorbtion being both fat soluble vitamins but I have since been told it is a myth that has been passed around.
I have been struggling with acne since i was 13. I'm now 31. In the last 15 months, my adult acne has been out of control. Dermatologist gave me antibiotics. They helped at first but i knew for certain that this could NOT BE THE SOLUTION LONG TERM. i do not want to damage my body. Trentinoin helped, but did not clear my skin. I cut out all sugar from my diet. That yielded little results. I started taking d3/k2 and a B complex vitamin. Within 2 days, i had no new blemishes erupting.
Yes. It’s “ sick care”, not “ well care@. Who would do a study and allow people to supplement what they are studying. Talk about inconclusive “ evidence”!
I can tell you, that Vitamin D3 saved my life! I was in major depression( SAD), and I started taking 5,000 IU daily. I live in a very overcast area of the country. I am like a new person! Seriously, As my husband!
@@creative45630well, just like you know from personal experience, so does she. Yes, the placebo effect can influence an outcome, but when results are as obvious as hers, it's more likely she's genuinely improving. Worst case scenario, if it is placebo effect, the extra D will not cause any harm, and probably even improve other physical aspects of her well being... After all, her results aren't a scientific study. So if she improved, one way or the other, the vitamin D is instrumental for that improvement...
@@creative45630Wow. Because she is telling her story and she knows herself better than you do. You sound like one of those doctors who never read their patient’s medical history before meeting them, refuses to listen to them speak yet somehow think they know what’s “best” for the patient that they have absolutely no idea/no real info about.
Good stuff! Please put a question mark after the video title - people reading the title and not watching the video will think you're recommending against Vitamin D.
My father has enlarged prostate, and he was having so much problems with it peeing many times a day and discomfort, he did tests and one test showed he had low vitamin D, but the doctor didn't tell him to take vitamin D, just some pills for it not to get worse. I told my father take vitamin D, he takes 2500 iu/day, and i kid you not, after a few weeks he stopped having problems with the prostate, and one year later he still takes vitamin D every day and has no problem with prostate, and on top of that his hair has grown thicker. He didn't do the surgery that he wanted to get.
Big Pharma doesn't want healthy people. They want repeat customers (aka patients with chronic illnesses). This test is disingenuous if not outright dishonest. Did Dr. Hollis get a handsome payoff? Wouldn't be surprised.
I suffered horrible migraines my whole life ! I increased the Vit D from 1,000 mg to 5,000 to help with Covid symptoms , and last September the migraines vanished !!! I can not even fathom they would say this !!! This is insanity !!
@LifeMemoirs Yes, genetics, age, sunscreen (obviously), magnesium and some more. All of those can lower your efficency of vit d conversion. Dr Berg explained all the factors in an earlier video.
I am a DAV I have neurological issues as well. I was told by a Neuro Muscular Physician after trying just about all meds for migraines a little thing big pharm doesn’t want you to know. It’s called Psilocybin Cubensis aka Magic Mushrooms. The Dose was : Be in a good mood first and foremost ! Take a comfortable shower , put on some soft enjoyable music and consume the shrooms. I’m NOT going to give you the amount or tell you to do it. This is just worked for me. DO YOUR OWN research it’s out there and it Worked for me. I haven’t had an episode in 10 plus years. Do your own due diligence !
150 grams of natto with curd and 60,000 IU of vitamin D3 every day keeps me healthy and gives me deeper sleep. I eat pumpkin seeds for magnesium and also take magnesium glycinate. It's crazy how much strength difference a healthy diet creates. All thanks to your knowledge, Dr. Eric Berg. If I hadn't found you, I wouldn't have been able to change my life.
my vit d level was 25 (low). I was depressed, felt malaise, off balance, brain fog, etc… just vague odd symptoms. my Dr. said to take 2000 iu daily. I didn’t listen & took 5000 iu along with Vit k. I feel so much more energy now, lifted depression, no longer off balance, way less brain fog. I still get sunlight as well. Vitamin d is needed in my experience and that of my family members as well.
But please also remember to supplement magnesium. Vitamin D requires magnesium for its conversion and activation. Very good bioactive forms of magnesium are citrate and glycinate.

Just before my father was diagnosed with lung cancer, his vitamin D levels were really low which he only discovered after having a blood test in Iran 🇮🇷 He was referred to have a blood test to check his vitamin D levels by the dentist in Iran because his tooth had pretty much disintegrated in a short space of time which was very unusual as he’s always had healthy teeth 🦷 Since increasing his Vitamin D levels, his cancer stopped spreading, his cough cleared up and he felt better than ever! Sadly it had already spread to his brain so he is still fighting now but we all truly believe that the medication he was on for Rheumatoid Arthritis is what lowered his immune system which led to developing cancer. He has now been discharged from RA clinic as he no longer meets the criteria simply through diet changes! Please pray for him as he is having brain tumour surgery on Wednesday, thank you 🙏🏼❤
Google Joe Tippins Tulsa Oklahoma. He had three months to live. He took FENBENDAZOLE. The cancer disappeared. It also worked for my sister. She used the powder1/4 teaspoon three times a day in a little water for the first month. Then 1/4 teaspoon twice a day until the cancer was gone. God bless!
I've been sunbathing several times per week and the psoriasis on my elbow went away. It was always bothering and would sometimes bleed. It is completely gone now, I'm amazed.
I used to be on a 2000 IU D3 daily pre the last plandemic and my level barely improved. It wasn’t until I started watching your channel that I upped it to about 10,000 IU and I saw a significant improvement.
Same here...haven't even had a cold since I upped to 10,0000 iu daily....never had covid either but studies showed that people with low D levels were more susceptible to covid
@@vickieyoung7122 hard to say for me. But I haven't gotten sick his past year. Usually I'm the First. And now I've seen people got sick twice already. Most likely due to a number of dietary changes. Including Vit D3, K2, Copper, Magnesium, min than 4 eggs a day, more meat and fat, cutting sugar. Do still have a problem with cold hands during winter time.
Lol sarcastic Dr Berg is gold 😅. The echoed bits are spot on! I've increased my Vit D intake because we don't get much sunshine here in the UK and I'm feeling great. That was a wonderful interview, Dr Berg. Thanks for your helpful content ❤
@@adelheidesser7855 Yes it works for me, much better with 20000 iu than 10000 iu in my case. It depends on many factors of course, but less fatigue makes is easier to push the lungs in training. Have to experiment. I also use zinc, magnesium, NAC, k2, boron, Curcumin, active b vitamins, vitamin C coenzyme Q10 and omega 3.
@@J.Michele Yes 1200 mg NAC and 20000 iu vitamin D daily makes a huge difference. Be sure to use enough k2 and magnesium. I use 600 mg magnesium and 1 super K from life extension.

My only lifestyle change since early 2020 was the addition of 5000 IUs of Vitamin D3 + K2. No illness for over 4 years now! I prefer my own study results.
It worked for me. I suffered from sore joints almost crippling me. I followed your advice and I started taking 12,000 units per day. Within a few days the joint pain is greatly reduced.
Here is a summary of the key points from the video: The text discusses a study called the VITAL study, which involved 26,000 people and found that vitamin D supplementation did not reduce the risk of cancer, major cardiovascular events, stroke, or cardiovascular death. The author suggests this study is flawed for several reasons: 1. It did not test baseline vitamin D levels, so it's unclear if participants were deficient or already sufficient in vitamin D. This could impact the effectiveness of supplementation. 2. The placebo group was still allowed to take up to 800 IU of vitamin D per day, making the control group less of a true placebo. 3. The study only used 2,000 IU of vitamin D, which may not be a high enough dose to see benefits, especially for immune system and cellular effects of vitamin D. 4. The study only measured inactive vitamin D in the blood, not the active form that has effects on the immune system, inflammation, etc. The author then cites other research showing benefits of higher dose vitamin D supplementation (4,000-6,000 IU) for reducing asthma, autoimmune disease, cancer, and other conditions. The text concludes that despite the VITAL study, there is substantial evidence supporting the importance of adequate vitamin D intake.
My only inquiry is Do we take 4000-6000 IU daily? What about those who rarely or even don't get any sun (like night shift workers)? TYSM for this summary ☯️
You are a lifesaver for many viewers on UA-cam. Your work is much appreciated as I have learned to make wiser choices with medications and supplements. Thank you so much!
When the governments, health authorities, and main stream media banned the use of D3 as a health benefit supplement over 4 years ago for whatever reason 😡 I did my own research, followed a lot of the advice from the doctors that were 'cancelled' for their expert scientific views. Started taking 8000 IU daily and continue to do so, I have never felt so healthy - no jabs, no colds, no flu, no asthma, no mental issues whatsoever - fit as a fiddle! 😀
Listening and watching this podcast/vlog as I sit outside under the sun, while drinking my coffee. Thank you, Dr Berg! 🙏🏽 Thank your for all you so for us!
I've been taking between 2000 to 5000iu of D3 for the last 10 years. 2000iu's most of the time. Without the cofactors. I had severe hayfever all my life and occasional asthma attacks in the last 5 years. Been on different antihistamines for years. Chronic sinusitis every winter, and all these symptoms despite my Vitamin D3 intake. Since September 2023 I started taking 10000iu D3 daily + 50000iu once a month. Also taking K2 MK7 ( trans version ), Mg, Zn. Since my levels of D3 surpassed 100ng/ml I don't have any hayfever or asthma attacks, I breathe like never before and this was the first winter without any sinusitis. The effects took place in about 2 months since I started the higher doses. Currently averaging at 110-140ng/ml D3 in the blood and never felt better. Since I hit maximum of 147ng/ml stopped taking the 50000iu and now only 10000iu a day. Mid 30's white male.
I noticed anytime a lot of people start doing something that works "they" announce a "study" "debunking" it like with intermittent fasting causing heart attacks 😂. At this point I cringe when I even hear the word study. Believe the opposite of anything "they" say.
I usually don't comment on videos but this one compelled me to do so. Thank you Dr. Berg for educating us and telling us how to take care of ourselves. Stay blessed!
Thanks to you I got rid of my vertigo and tinnitus like noise in my ears. I take 20.000i.u. plus K2 every other day (sometimes every 3 days) and I haven't had any further issues at all. So I couldn't care less about this study.
@@RB-fz9gg my protocol is literally written down in my comment. Of course I take more supplements and am working out a lot but I attribute the curing of my symptoms clearly to the intake of those 20.000iu tablets every other day. I didn't have a permanent tinnitus but one that occurred sporadically for a few seconds which then evolved into a short vertigo feeling. Or light headed as you describe it. All gone. My supplement is accompanied by Vitamin K2 as recommended by Dr. Berg.
Wow! I'm on a prescription dose of 800iu D3 and contracted dizziness and balance problems and tinnitus post covid and post vaccines with the tinnitus. I now have heart disease and had a stroke, I am on medication which means I can't take K2 supplements but I wonder if upping my dose of D3 will improve my current vertigo, muscle weakness and exhaustion...(caused by my heart meds and is a common side effect)...the mind boggles 😮...I read somewhere recently that the meds do cause issues with vitamin D3, coq10 and affect blood glucose levels..it's a minefield but I'm sure there's an easier way to live than my current state. I can't speak to my GP on this subject as I don't think he'd be in agreement...he's pushing to get me back on statins to prevent another stroke! I'm glad you are cured of your vertigo, it's so debilitating isn't it?!
I feel vertigo and my ears popping every day. I have been taking k2/d3 from the Dr. berg website. I have been taking it for 2 weeks so far. How long before you started noticing the improvement?
Im 65 Im not on any BP meds. Both of my parents were at this time Before covid, my BP started creeping up Now, its lower, since ive been taking.. vitamin D3/K2, zinc, C etc
All I know is I usually. fall sick at least once every winter, often more. Since taking D starting 7 years ago I haven't been sick ONCE and Never had COVID despite not getting any clot shots.
@@shareka478 since I started living clean about a decade ago I've not had anymore seasonal flu detox events, and NO I did not inject any toxins or get any nasal lobotomies
I would love to see a study of vitamin D deficiency in Japan. Living there for almost 4 years, I saw many Japanese women completely shield themselves from the sun. They used parasols, covered their arms, wore big hats, etc.
You forgot to say the usage of UV cream here in Japan is absolutely insane, and many carcinogenic UV cream ingredients, such as titanium dioxide, are neither banned nor declared to posses any health risks. I sneak vitamin D from supplement gels into daily smoothies or salad to my Japanese wife and kids. 😂 They all get 10,000 IU of it every single day, plus natto as rich source of vitamin K2. It's getting much better with the new generations.
You always give complete clarity while explaining things Doctor! Im vitamin D deficient, i suffered immensely with hairfall, acne, depression, moodswings, horrible muscle pain on my neck and shoulders. I take 60,000 iu once a week and i can assure it works great. I already feel much better! Thanks for the info doctor 👍
Years ago I saw a map of flu cases and the number of cases went up in more northern latitudes . Gee maybe less sunshine. And explained why flu is more common in the winter. Not because it's cold but because it's dark. Less sunshine less vitamin D
World Health Organization has long wanted vitamins to be available by prescription only, and minimal dosages just enough to prevent scurvy, rickets, and other vitamin deficiency illnesses.
I used to host a radio talk show and reported on that about 10 years ago. Not only did they want to make vitamins unavailable over the counter, but they also wanted to place natural/herbal suppliments like Turmeric, Ginko Biloba, Saw Palmetto, etc under "prescription only" restrictions. Of course, no doctor would prescribe a natural medicine over a pharmaceutical, so it amounted to an outright ban of all natural supplements. I think they managed to get that to fly in Germany. I'm not sure if that's still the case.
I think it's actually the collagen produced by the body with enough vit D intake that might have helped. I can go without vit D but i take hydrolized collagen or collagen from bone marrow/spirulina which seems to have the same effect on my skin. Anyway either vit D or taking collagen directly works.
What did you take? Like...how many IU? Daily? Weekly? D2 or D3? Any other supplements? What type? Same questions as above? I have psoriasis and it is unsightly and hurts. Please respond. Thank you.
@@meliciodeltorro6264 I take 4000iu per day with K2. Once I added that in, my psoriasis went away. I already was on a regimen of a multivitamin, collagen and pre/pro/post biotic for years.
I'm not taking vitamin D for any of these reasons My Dr Recomended it to me because of seasonal depression and I feel it helps me Summer time I'm much better than winter
I have started taking vitamin D and I don't struggle with fatigue and headaches anymore and I feel I can finish my whole shift at work. I can see the difference!
what I find interesting is when I went to buy a new bottle of Vitamin D the other day at my local food co-op, I could not get a higher dose then 400 IU's. How ironic after listening to this video.
If you buy vitamins/supplements through a practitioner's office they sell the best of the best! This includes Chiropractors, Nutritionists, functional medicine Drs etc...
During the COVID lockdown period, I didn’t get any sun exposure for over a year. I started losing a lot of hair and developed psoriasis and was told by dr I had eczema. Was prescribed steroid cream but the rashes persisted for more than a year. Then one day it dawned on me that I hadn’t been in the sun for a long time and I was also fasting intermittently so guessed it could a be lack of vitamin D. I quickly googled and found the answer. Completely recovered after taking the vitamin for a few months, and going outdoors after the lockdown.
Yo I just started vitamin d3+k2 thx to you, and I haven't had back pain ever since!! Wasn't expecting that! Same thing happened to my brother! But we took them for dizziness from ear crystals which we both suffered from and it totally fixed that too. THANK YOU

I know of two people who left this site after reading "Vitamin D is worthless". Not everyone will stay to listen if they think that was an honest comment. I would not recommend joking about people's health.
And where was the study conducted? Where were the 26,000 people they tested? Were they in the lower latitudes? Did they test people in higher latitudes, like Canada or Russia? What time of year was the study conducted? Was it in winter? The study sounds like it was, shall we say, "engineered" for whatever purpose.
@@JinxD247Do you use sunscreen? Sunscreen blocks UVB light and that is what's needed to create Vitamin D. So if you use sunscreen for the entire day, then, you won't be getting any Vitamin D.
...and the massive amount of information on UA-cam about vitamin D3 seems extremely worthless without Dr. Stephanie Seneff, who tells the truth, without trying to sale us something! 🤷♂️ Much appreciated! Great day to everyone 🙂
By Dr. Seneff's own admission, that "I may be wrong", her take on vitamin D supps. may, or may not be right! I think she's right in the way the mechanisms work, but she might be incorrect on how the body ITSELF breaks down, and reacts to the supplements. Obviously, each person is unique, so results will vary, but anecdotal evidence suggests that D supps. in higher than recommended dosages, especially in overcast areas where sunlight is in short supply, improves mental and physical health... Long term, only God knows for sure...
I haven’t been getting sun and when I run out of vitamin D I end up hurting my neck or back every single time. Within few hours of taking it again it starts to reduce noticeably.
I am 56, and went to hospital with chest pain six months ago, convinced I was having a heart attack. My heart was fine, but blood showed I had critically low vitamin D levels.. (which Ive since learned can be caused by very low Vit D). since learning that, I now take a good quality D3, as well as K2 and magnesium, as well as completely changed way of eating to a keto diet. Not only have I lost 15 kg, I’ve not had one single chest pain , the weakness in my arms and legs has gone, my whole body aches and pains have reduced drastically, and I feel better than I have for a very long time !!!!!
@desertbluesplaylist7550 it took me about two weeks to begin noticing the lessening pain and after about 6 weeks(ish) I have been almost pain free. My functional med Dr told me that inflammation was a great deal of my issues with the lower back pain and joint pain. I don't know about other issues, but at 55 yrs old, I was almost debilitated with the pain and now I'm at least 90% or better improved and have been for several years now.
I used to take 4000 UI a day, but recently increased to 8000. My serum phosphate level decreased under the the minimum value, and this is probably the consequence of the consumption of too much vitamin D. In fact, high vitamin D usually increases phosphate absorption from the intestines and can increase phosphate levels in the blood. So I recommend people not to exceed 4000 UI. No need to say I reverted to 4000 UI. - High vitamin D increases calcium absorption. - High calcium levels can suppress parathyroid hormone (PTH). - Low PTH can cause the kidneys to excrete more phosphate. - This increased excretion can lead to lower phosphate levels in the blood.
If I don't take Vitamin D I feel sooo off. I feel like I am going nuts and it's an awful feeling. I have narrowed it down to that and ha e been tested for low Vitamin D when I feel like that. So yes I absolutely need my Vitamin D
I'm coming to the same conclusion. I feel that there may a connection between the sun and the God /Christ energy. Didnt some past civilisations come to this conclusion?
Hahaha oh my . When it helps people heal or stay well and messes with 💰 they get all excited and start telling us it doesn't do anything. Stay awesome Dr Berg!
Vitamin D "supplementation" (not to mention "fortification" of selected food items in the United States) *is* a pharmacological intervention, just as estrogen replacement is. The fact that a handful of food items contain "vitamin D3" (AKA cholecalciferol) does not make it any more of a "nutrient" than phytoestrogens. The "natural" source of "vitamin D" is production in the skin and immediate release into the bloodstream, not ingestion. This process requires exposure to UV radiation, which makes sunlight the nutrient and oral ingestion of "vitamin D3" equivalent to replacement rather than supplementation. (Note also that the metabolite measured in the bloodstream to determine "vitamin D" status is calcidiol (25-hydroxy "vitamin D"), which is a prohormone derived from cholecalciferol by the liver shortly after the latter is released into the bloodstream by the skin.)
This doctor needs to be cloned and put into every medical school to re-educate doctors with correct information about health.

Medical studies are always designed to show what the author wants to show before the study results. Our peer reviewed medical journals are jam-packed full of misleading information. Brilliant work Dr. Berg.
I was spending at least 30 minutes a day, topless in the sun, right after working out. I felt AMAZING. A couple weeks ago I was feeling like shit, not motivated, low energy, low drive all around. I thought about what I was doing differently and realized that I hadn't been spending much time in the sun lately. I started taking a D3 supplement, 20,000 iu the first day and now 15k everyday, 10k in the am and 5k before bed. Improved all kinds of things in just a couple days. I won't go into details here but vitd3 is a Game changer when it comes to being and feeling healthy.
I just spent 2 months unable to walk, I couldn't get off the toilet because of weakness. My legs were becoming weak. My vit D level 23. 2 days of supplements and my pain was gone, I could walk again. My Dr gave me 50, 000 units weekly for the next 12 weeks. It's a miracle to me. And yep...my asthma is improved!

You don't have the option of manipulating the ratio if you take both in the same tablet. If combination D/K2 works the ratio must be the key, so you want that option.
I read k3 interacts poorly with blood thinners
@arcelyparedess I used to think the same as I was told they compete for absorbtion being both fat soluble vitamins but I have since been told it is a myth that has been passed around.
Vitamin D did very effectively reduce profits of pharmaceutical companies!
I have been struggling with acne since i was 13. I'm now 31. In the last 15 months, my adult acne has been out of control. Dermatologist gave me antibiotics. They helped at first but i knew for certain that this could NOT BE THE SOLUTION LONG TERM. i do not want to damage my body. Trentinoin helped, but did not clear my skin. I cut out all sugar from my diet. That yielded little results. I started taking d3/k2 and a B complex vitamin. Within 2 days, i had no new blemishes erupting.

@@creative45630well, just like you know from personal experience, so does she. Yes, the placebo effect can influence an outcome, but when results are as obvious as hers, it's more likely she's genuinely improving. Worst case scenario, if it is placebo effect, the extra D will not cause any harm, and probably even improve other physical aspects of her well being...
After all, her results aren't a scientific study. So if she improved, one way or the other, the vitamin D is instrumental for that improvement...
@@creative45630Wow. Because she is telling her story and she knows herself better than you do.

My father has enlarged prostate, and he was having so much problems with it peeing many times a day and discomfort, he did tests and one test showed he had low vitamin D, but the doctor didn't tell him to take vitamin D, just some pills for it not to get worse. I told my father take vitamin D, he takes 2500 iu/day, and i kid you not, after a few weeks he stopped having problems with the prostate, and one year later he still takes vitamin D every day and has no problem with prostate, and on top of that his hair has grown thicker. He didn't do the surgery that he wanted to get.

Big Pharma doesn't want healthy people. They want repeat customers (aka patients with chronic illnesses). This test is disingenuous if not outright dishonest. Did Dr. Hollis get a handsome payoff? Wouldn't be surprised.
I suffered horrible migraines my whole life ! I increased the Vit D from 1,000 mg to 5,000 to help with Covid symptoms , and last September the migraines vanished !!! I can not even fathom they would say this !!! This is insanity !!
Was it D3 or D2? How many IU? Daily or weekly? Any other supplements?
how long did it take u to get results？
@LifeMemoirs Yes, genetics, age, sunscreen (obviously), magnesium and some more. All of those can lower your efficency of vit d conversion. Dr Berg explained all the factors in an earlier video.
I am a DAV I have neurological issues as well. I was told by a Neuro Muscular Physician after trying just about all meds for migraines a little thing big pharm doesn’t want you to know. It’s called Psilocybin Cubensis aka Magic Mushrooms.
The Dose was : Be in a good mood first and foremost ! Take a comfortable shower , put on some soft enjoyable music and consume the shrooms.

150 grams of natto with curd and 60,000 IU of vitamin D3 every day keeps me healthy and gives me deeper sleep. I eat pumpkin seeds for magnesium and also take magnesium glycinate. It's crazy how much strength difference a healthy diet creates. All thanks to your knowledge, Dr. Eric Berg. If I hadn't found you, I wouldn't have been able to change my life.
Where do you get natto and curd from??
my vit d level was 25 (low). I was depressed, felt malaise, off balance, brain fog, etc… just vague odd symptoms. my Dr. said to take 2000 iu daily. I didn’t listen & took 5000 iu along with Vit k. I feel so much more energy now, lifted depression, no longer off balance, way less brain fog. I still get sunlight as well. Vitamin d is needed in my experience and that of my family members as well.
But please also remember to supplement magnesium. Vitamin D requires magnesium for its conversion and activation.
Very good bioactive forms of magnesium are citrate and glycinate.

Just before my father was diagnosed with lung cancer, his vitamin D levels were really low which he only discovered after having a blood test in Iran 🇮🇷
He was referred to have a blood test to check his vitamin D levels by the dentist in Iran because his tooth had pretty much disintegrated in a short space of time which was very unusual as he’s always had healthy teeth 🦷
Since increasing his Vitamin D levels, his cancer stopped spreading, his cough cleared up and he felt better than ever! Sadly it had already spread to his brain so he is still fighting now but we all truly believe that the medication he was on for Rheumatoid Arthritis is what lowered his immune system which led to developing cancer.
He has now been discharged from RA clinic as he no longer meets the criteria simply through diet changes! Please pray for him as he is having brain tumour surgery on Wednesday, thank you 🙏🏼❤
May your father continue to heal. So happy for his progress!
Thanks for the comment. Yes I have a good thought for him.
Google Joe Tippins Tulsa Oklahoma. He had three months to live. He took FENBENDAZOLE. The cancer disappeared. It also worked for my sister. She used the powder1/4 teaspoon three times a day in a little water for the first month. Then 1/4 teaspoon twice a day until the cancer was gone.

My only lifestyle change since early 2020 was the addition of 5000 IUs of Vitamin D3 + K2. No illness for over 4 years now! I prefer my own study results.
It worked for me. I suffered from sore joints almost crippling me. I followed your advice and I started taking 12,000 units per day. Within a few days the joint pain is greatly reduced.
Here is a summary of the key points from the video:
The text discusses a study called the VITAL study, which involved 26,000 people and found that vitamin D supplementation did not reduce the risk of cancer, major cardiovascular events, stroke, or cardiovascular death. The author suggests this study is flawed for several reasons:
1. It did not test baseline vitamin D levels, so it's unclear if participants were deficient or already sufficient in vitamin D. This could impact the effectiveness of supplementation.
2. The placebo group was still allowed to take up to 800 IU of vitamin D per day, making the control group less of a true placebo.
3. The study only used 2,000 IU of vitamin D, which may not be a high enough dose to see benefits, especially for immune system and cellular effects of vitamin D.
4. The study only measured inactive vitamin D in the blood, not the active form that has effects on the immune system, inflammation, etc.
The author then cites other research showing benefits of higher dose vitamin D supplementation (4,000-6,000 IU) for reducing asthma, autoimmune disease, cancer, and other conditions. The text concludes that despite the VITAL study, there is substantial evidence supporting the importance of adequate vitamin D intake.
@@MrDJH3 excellent summary, thanks!

When the governments, health authorities, and main stream media banned the use of D3 as a health benefit supplement over 4 years ago for whatever reason 😡 I did my own research, followed a lot of the advice from the doctors that were 'cancelled' for their expert scientific views. Started taking 8000 IU daily and continue to do so, I have never felt so healthy - no jabs, no colds, no flu, no asthma, no mental issues whatsoever - fit as a fiddle! 😀

Vitamin D3 was automatic
Vitamin K2 is in butter
The problem then, eas 2nd hand cigarette smoke
Where do you live where they banned the use of D3?

Thank you, Dr Berg! 🙏🏽 Thank your for all you so for us!
I've been taking between 2000 to 5000iu of D3 for the last 10 years. 2000iu's most of the time. Without the cofactors. I had severe hayfever all my life and occasional asthma attacks in the last 5 years. Been on different antihistamines for years. Chronic sinusitis every winter, and all these symptoms despite my Vitamin D3 intake. Since September 2023 I started taking 10000iu D3 daily + 50000iu once a month. Also taking K2 MK7 ( trans version ), Mg, Zn. Since my levels of D3 surpassed 100ng/ml I don't have any hayfever or asthma attacks, I breathe like never before and this was the first winter without any sinusitis. The effects took place in about 2 months since I started the higher doses. Currently averaging at 110-140ng/ml D3 in the blood and never felt better. Since I hit maximum of 147ng/ml stopped taking the 50000iu and now only 10000iu a day. Mid 30's white male.
I noticed anytime a lot of people start doing something that works "they" announce a "study" "debunking" it like with intermittent fasting causing heart attacks 😂. At this point I cringe when I even hear the word study. Believe the opposite of anything "they" say.

Thanks to you I got rid of my vertigo and tinnitus like noise in my ears. I take 20.000i.u. plus K2 every other day (sometimes every 3 days) and I haven't had any further issues at all. So I couldn't care less about this study.
That's amazing!
Can you please share your protocol? I have tinnitus and am very lightheaded
@@RB-fz9gg my protocol is literally written down in my comment. Of course I take more supplements and am working out a lot but I attribute the curing of my symptoms clearly to the intake of those 20.000iu tablets every other day. I didn't have a permanent tinnitus but one that occurred sporadically for a few seconds which then evolved into a short vertigo feeling. Or light headed as you describe it. All gone. My supplement is accompanied by Vitamin K2 as recommended by Dr. Berg.
Wow! I'm on a prescription dose of 800iu D3 and contracted dizziness and balance problems and tinnitus post covid and post vaccines with the tinnitus. I now have heart disease and had a stroke, I am on medication which means I can't take K2 supplements but I wonder if upping my dose of D3 will improve my current vertigo, muscle weakness and exhaustion...(caused by my heart meds and is a common side effect)...the mind boggles 😮...I read somewhere recently that the meds do cause issues with vitamin D3, coq10 and affect blood glucose levels..it's a minefield but I'm sure there's an easier way to live than my current state. I can't speak to my GP on this subject as I don't think he'd be in agreement...he's pushing to get me back on statins to prevent another stroke! I'm glad you are cured of your vertigo, it's so debilitating isn't it?!

Years ago I saw a map of flu cases and the number of cases went up in more northern latitudes . Gee maybe less sunshine. And explained why flu is more common in the winter. Not because it's cold but because it's dark. Less sunshine less vitamin D
I can remember when Congress wanted Doctors to prescribe Vitamins. NO more over the counter. They tried to pass a law.
World Health Organization has long wanted vitamins to be available by prescription only, and minimal dosages just enough to prevent scurvy, rickets, and other vitamin deficiency illnesses.
I used to host a radio talk show and reported on that about 10 years ago. Not only did they want to make vitamins unavailable over the counter, but they also wanted to place natural/herbal suppliments like Turmeric, Ginko Biloba, Saw Palmetto, etc under "prescription only" restrictions. Of course, no doctor would prescribe a natural medicine over a pharmaceutical, so it amounted to an outright ban of all natural supplements. I think they managed to get that to fly in Germany. I'm not sure if that's still the case.
Cleared up my psoriasis when nothing else was working
Ok but how much did you take and with K2 and other vitamins?
And my psoriasis is steadily diminishing!
I think it's actually the collagen produced by the body with enough vit D intake that might have helped.
I can go without vit D but i take hydrolized collagen or collagen from bone marrow/spirulina which seems to have the same effect on my skin.
Anyway either vit D or taking collagen directly works.

Was prescribed steroid cream but the rashes persisted for more than a year.

...and the massive amount of information on UA-cam about vitamin D3 seems extremely worthless without Dr. Stephanie Seneff, who tells the truth, without trying to sale us something! 🤷♂️ Much appreciated! Great day to everyone 🙂
FACTS HURT! 👊
By Dr. Seneff's own admission, that "I may be wrong", her take on vitamin D supps. may, or may not be right! I think she's right in the way the mechanisms work, but she might be incorrect on how the body ITSELF breaks down, and reacts to the supplements. Obviously, each person is unique, so results will vary, but anecdotal evidence suggests that D supps. in higher than recommended dosages, especially in overcast areas where sunlight is in short supply, improves mental and physical health... Long term, only God knows for sure...
I have a wound my doc told me to take it and also it helps me

I am 56, and went to hospital with chest pain six months ago, convinced I was having a heart attack. My heart was fine, but blood showed I had critically low vitamin D levels.. (which Ive since learned can be caused by very low Vit D). since learning that, I now take a good quality D3, as well as K2 and magnesium, as well as completely changed way of eating to a keto diet. Not only have I lost 15 kg, I’ve not had one single chest pain , the weakness in my arms and legs has gone, my whole body aches and pains have reduced drastically, and I feel better than I have for a very long time !!!!!
I take 20K IUs daily of D3 plus K2. My inflammation and back pain for 20 years is almost totally eliminated!
Ditto🦋
congratulations!
100% true, I had the worst back pain for around 20 years also and 20k iu's of d3/k2 made me 90% better, and i tried everything else.
Brilliant result. How long did it take approximately?
@desertbluesplaylist7550 it took me about two weeks to begin noticing the lessening pain and after about 6 weeks(ish) I have been almost pain free. My functional med Dr told me that inflammation was a great deal of my issues with the lower back pain and joint pain. I don't know about other issues, but at 55 yrs old, I was almost debilitated with the pain and now I'm at least 90% or better improved and have been for several years now.
I used to take 4000 UI a day, but recently increased to 8000. My serum phosphate level decreased under the the minimum value, and this is probably the consequence of the consumption of too much vitamin D. In fact, high vitamin D usually increases phosphate absorption from the intestines and can increase phosphate levels in the blood. So I recommend people not to exceed 4000 UI. No need to say I reverted to 4000 UI.
- High vitamin D increases calcium absorption.
- High calcium levels can suppress parathyroid hormone (PTH).
- Low PTH can cause the kidneys to excrete more phosphate.
- This increased excretion can lead to lower phosphate levels in the blood.
If I don't take Vitamin D I feel sooo off. I feel like I am going nuts and it's an awful feeling. I have narrowed it down to that and ha e been tested for low Vitamin D when I feel like that. So yes I absolutely need my Vitamin D
As a previous school nurse I noticed disproportionately high rate of asthma in dark skinned children. This makes sense.
My kid in one of them
You are worth! You mean to us. Thank you, Dr. Berg.
I was taking 30,000 IU daily during the peak of Covid. I only got Covid when I ran out of Vitamin D and stopped taking it for 5 days.
Thank you for replying!! Will definitely watch. 🙏☺️
Vitamin D or Hormones D the "GOD" of all vitamins.
I'm coming to the same conclusion.
I feel that there may a connection between the sun and the God /Christ energy.
Didnt some past civilisations come to this conclusion?
@@lsmith992yes, but its not that simple at all. Theres so much more involved.
Hahaha oh my . When it helps people heal or stay well and messes with 💰 they get all excited and start telling us it doesn't do anything.
Stay awesome Dr Berg!
Vitamin D "supplementation" (not to mention "fortification" of selected food items in the United States) *is* a pharmacological intervention, just as estrogen replacement is. The fact that a handful of food items contain "vitamin D3" (AKA cholecalciferol) does not make it any more of a "nutrient" than phytoestrogens. The "natural" source of "vitamin D" is production in the skin and immediate release into the bloodstream, not ingestion. This process requires exposure to UV radiation, which makes sunlight the nutrient and oral ingestion of "vitamin D3" equivalent to replacement rather than supplementation. (Note also that the metabolite measured in the bloodstream to determine "vitamin D" status is calcidiol (25-hydroxy "vitamin D"), which is a prohormone derived from cholecalciferol by the liver shortly after the latter is released into the bloodstream by the skin.)
This doctor needs to be cloned and put into every medical school to re-educate doctors with correct information about health. He is brilliant, and a gem of a person to anyone with common sense about how to improve their health in a sustained way. I just love learning from his simple to understand videos ... I respect this man immensely. 👏👏👏
I had severe pain in my legs... couldn't sleep. I took 10000mcg per day... even morr when pain was severe. It calned ghe pain so I could sleep.. The symptoms then disappeared. Its now a distant memory
Do you have a backup channel or a rumble channel? I'm concerned that at some point this type of truth video is going to be censored.
You can subscribe to his newsletter as well. I am anticipating many changes come Nov in the US and the world. Praying for our leaders daily.
He has an app so you can access any article at any time😊
Medical studies are always designed to show what the author wants to show before the study results. Our peer reviewed medical journals are jam-packed full of misleading information. Brilliant work Dr. Berg.
Appreciate your message, thanks for watching!
My hair stopped falling out and thickened up on high-dose D3 and K2!
How much you take and how long it takes to stop falling ?
@@ek6744 I take different amounts per week. From 30,000 to 50,000 IU a day + 1 K2 per 10,000 IU. And the change in my hair was immediate.
Cool. Thanks for sharing your experience. Take care.
I was spending at least 30 minutes a day, topless in the sun, right after working out. I felt AMAZING. A couple weeks ago I was feeling like shit, not motivated, low energy, low drive all around. I thought about what I was doing differently and realized that I hadn't been spending much time in the sun lately. I started taking a D3 supplement, 20,000 iu the first day and now 15k everyday, 10k in the am and 5k before bed. Improved all kinds of things in just a couple days. I won't go into details here but vitd3 is a Game changer when it comes to being and feeling healthy.
I just spent 2 months unable to walk, I couldn't get off the toilet because of weakness. My legs were becoming weak. My vit D level 23. 2 days of supplements and my pain was gone, I could walk again. My Dr gave me 50, 000 units weekly for the next 12 weeks. It's a miracle to me. And yep...my asthma is improved!
