Why the heck aren’t vitamins tested in a CBC???? I was losing hair, had progressing peripheral neuropathy, was exhausted, gained a lot of weight, and developed arrhythmia and pre-diabetes. After many tests and doctor visits and seeing many doctors, I finally saw a doctor who decided to run T-4 (TSH was normal), vitamin D, vitamin K, vitamin B12, B6, and Folate. T-4 was low - I had hypothyroidism! The thyroid affects SO MANY systems and can cause so many chemical abnormalities in the body. My B12 and folate were low. B6 was extremely high. Vitamin K was high. Vitamin D was very low. My neuropathy is permanent because the abnormal vitamin and thyroid levels went undiagnosed for so long. Those abnormalities created a host of other issues, including weight gain of 50 pounds, pre-diabetes, liver and kidney disease, and arrhythmia that landed me in a hospital. I’m tearing up just writing this. All of this could have been prevented if vitamins had been tested routinely by my doctors and if a complete thyroid panel was routine. Why isn’t this done? How many others have been let down by a medical community that doesn’t put much stock in the huge effect vitamins have on our health? How many others went for years with undiagnosed hypothyroidism because medical textbooks and training tell doctors to only look at the TSH value? It is maddening. My body is a mess because of doctor neglect. I do not trust doctors to think beyond the most basic of training. This was all preventable.
Sorry to hear about that. I believe I have some issues too, but not that extreme. This is why nutrition is generally a separate degree. Doctors often have very little formal training on nutrition. They are just there to treat symptoms with medications and stuff for the most part. There should be a more holistic preventative approach to health. You can't force your patients to eat healthy I suppose, but at least having a baseline knowledge of how to diagnose and address nutrient deficiencies should be expected without the need for a nutritionist.
You would think doctors would get sick and tired or not being able to help people and that probably 70% of their patients are suffering but they don't know whats wrong with them like if they actually cared wouldn't they want to take the extra steps to doing their own research beyond what they learned? It doesn't make sense to me either because during covid i was miss-diagnosed for over a year with gallstones.. It turned out my first doctor visit in the ER wrote in my chart that I had Galstones but they didn't act on it because i guess tons of people live with gallstones without any symptoms until it bursts and they have to do emergency surgery.. Finally the 100th ER visit a new doctor said all my symptoms are related to gallstones and had to be the one that told me a long time back that it was written in my chart. Its crazy!
@@dotexe3426 In their defense most people kind of check out on their job a little bit and start to see it just as the way they pay the bills. They lose curiosity and maybe lose sight of the reasons why they become interested in the first place. Hence, they generally don't stray too far from their training unless they have a personal reason. This is just the way it works in a system where work isn't generally a passion, but a thing you are stuck doing just to survive.
It's not permanent. Sadly I don't really remember all the stuff you you may need to take, as rarely does a single vitamin be the missing nutrient. With that said, look up benfotiamine; it's used for diabetes and peripheral neuropathy. Sulbutiamine does the same but also crosses the blood brain barrier unlike the former, so it's better. Try it and see the difference.
Look into the carnivore diet. The carnivore diet has reversed many "permanent" diseases and conditions. Dr. Anthony Chaffee & Dr. Berry both have great info on UA-cam about the carnivore diet.
What a rollercoaster ride my deficiency in Vit D was! My level was 3 instead of about 50. Crippling insomnia, nightmares when I did sleep, often of putting my hand to my mouth and all my teeth crumbling into it. Teeth so sensitive I couldn't brush them, had to curl my tongue away from touching them. Intense, deep fatigue - doing something then feeling like I had slammed into a brick wall and could barely move. Barely being able to get up the stairs to go to bed. More hair in my brush than on my head. Thought I was going slowly insane. What a relief to be diagnosed eventually with fibromyalgia and a Vit D deficiency! I still feel my teeth occasionally to make sure they are all there still!
Wow I’m so happy you found the root cause of your ailments. I was a level 7 a couple months ago, I’ve never seen anyone with results less than mine. I’m feeling much better now though
How are you now?
Yea how are you now?
Really hope you are feeling better ❤

Ask your doctor for Micronutrient Testing to find possible Vitamin Deficiencies
The real hero 😂😂
Thank you for that very helpful breakdown!
AND high blood pressure. we solved DECADES of my hubbys high blood pressure with 10,000 iu/VitD3/day after 48 hours! dropped by 40 points!!
Have them all. Dr says I'm Ok
get a different doctor, get an integrative one. you DONT NEED a doc or a lab reading to TRY vit d3 and see how you feel!! thats what we did, we feel MUCH BETTER!! @@sandraadams4940
Pain was the biggest marker for me. Joint, muscle and general. Also fatigue, brain fog, vertigo and many other symptoms. I made the connection with vitamin D (other than watching these videos) because it happened the same time last year! Also that my general symptoms improve if I can sit in the Sun for a while.
I don’t know, or understand why allopathic doctors can’t figure anything out when you go see them. I mean, really, they go to medical school for many years, yet when you go in to see them with a problem like vitamin D deficiency, they can’t figure it out. I had a very bad deficiency in vitamin D and I had to go to a naturopathic doctor and they figured it out on the spot. After putting me on vitamin D supplement, I started to feel much better. Four months later, I feel 100% better after feeling like complete and utter garbage for the past year. The funny thing is, my allopathic doctor’s office called me a couple days ago saying that there was a new medication that my doctor wanted me to try. Yeah right, ain’t gonna happen.
It's the worst! I agree! Just drugs, that's all you get. So basically poison, when we really need nourishment.
Vitamin D therapy equals zero benefit to a doctor or big pHARMa
New medical treatments mean $ for the doctor $ for big pHARMa
Hopefully the treatment wont kill you too quickly to optimise $

Because In medical school, it's controlled by the pharmaceutical industry and they're not trained in nutrition. So they're pretty much trained by the pharmaceutical industry. Pharmaceutical industry doesn't make money on healthy people
I don't understand either. It's really disheartening! What r they doing anyway!
Taking 100,000 iu every 10 days for 2 months made me so much better ( mood & energy especially) , i wish people realised how important that vit is
D3 always with k2 mk7 and magnesium
Dayli?
@@suryaelectric8033 yes
Vitamin D deficiency definitely contributes to Psoriasis too. I found taking extra Vit D (4000 IU per day) stopped all psoriasis (moderate scalp psoriasis), improved my mood, my sleep, my energy & reduced my general levels of anxiety ! I had never thought my Vitamin D levels night be low because I eat a healthy diet (lots of vit D rich oily fish) and take a multivitamin & mineral supplement daily. Turns out the multivitamin has an almost pointless amount of vitamin D (10ug) & because I live in the UK we don't get much decent vitamin D promoting sun for 6-8 months of the year. I'll be sticking with 4000IU of Vitamin D per day going forward.
I take this amount for seasonally effective disorder and its amazing how much of a difference it makes. I don't like the sun even when we have it due to heat intolerance. Also touch wood I haven't been poorly in a long time since supplementing vit d.
Holy frick man! You described me perfectly. I have a decent diet too and recently, my psoriasis has been awful, just for blood tested, incredibly low vitamin D levels. I'm on a supplement for the first time starting today.. hope it helps me as much as it helped you. 🙏🙏
had to look up psoriasis and I might have it on my nose but im unsure. but I also low energy, have a hard time sleeping, and take 2000 iu at most in a day
@@Sir.Allegations I was told 8,000 - 12,000 IU for chronically deficient people whom are often people who don't get much sun or happen to have heavily restrictive diets.
Really? I started getting psoriasis about 11/2 years ago, I couldn't figure out why, I've never had it before, I was recently tested my vitamin D level 12 I've been to doctors for my health legs hurting, breathing, gaining weight, totally exhausted, I still have a scratch not healed for 2 months now. Headaches every other day. Wow I hope D3 fixes all this .
Man I’m so glad I found ur channel dude holy
I never skip the advertisement Doc.
I found this really interesting 👍just subscribed 😀
Love your video's, brushing ul on my supplement knowledge. You're very helpful.
Blissings to you!

Thank you very informative 👍
can you make a video about nootropics for symptoms like extreme fatigue anxiety after quitting methylphenidate
I want to make a somewhat technical question: It is mentioned that vitamin D can improve the condition in people with depression, and it has been studied that there are vitamin D receptors in the brain. Now, it is also mentioned that vitamin D should be consumed together with vitamin K2 to prevent calcifications in the arteries. What vitamin K2 does is ensure that the calcium in vitamin D is absorbed specifically in the bones and not in another part of the body. So the question is this: Doesn't the availability of vitamin D along with vitamin K2 cause it to go only to the bones and not go to the brain receptors? That is to say... by taking vitamin K2 do we cancel out any emotional well-being that vitamin D alone can produce? I appreciate anyone who can provide me with some information on this matter. Greetings.
I went to the docs. They had no clue....After 20 years it finally came out, I have Lambert Eaton.....
Dr. Your videos are amazing! Thank you
My symptoms when I am low on Vit D3: Sore/Tender elbows and fingers. I am currently now on D3 + k2 at 5000 iu's of a Vegan gel vitamine (ingredients of vitamin is important too).
Has anyone had a symptom of your eyes going blurry and double vision? It feels like when you stand up fast and get dizzy , but im just driving or watching tv then it happens
Exactly the same symptoms dizziness fatigue blurred vision it's really annoying
@@1979Frankyboy how do you feel now
I've only just started the vitamin D about a week ago no improvement yet but hopefully soon. It's been around 2 months of symptoms
This could also be a sign of low B1 so consider that as well and definitely take magnesium also.
Aura migraine!
I'm loving your videos! Do you have any thoughts on Qualia Mind? I mean the caffeine-free version, I know you don't recommend stimulants.
I feel like crying , this has been me for years
Good for sciatic pain lower back pain
So for fatigue and hair loss should increase Vitamin D supplement
Make sure your taking Vit. K with Vit. D
10.000 ius per day?
Yes thats good!
Also dude look into benfothiamine ! It’s great stuff with focus . L tyrosine too . I combine tyrosine with Rhodiola some coffee , vitamin d ,k and magneisum . Game changer
It seems like each month i get a new symptom, and my old symptoms get worse. Im starting D3 today 10k iu per day. For 4 weeks . I hope it fixes me up
Make sure you’re getting adequate amounts of magnesium along with it or it can cause problems or you’ll feel like it’s not working or getting worse.
@@Versiongurlwow !! Really. ?? Humm.. I kno I need to take mag at night but I forget.. I’m sure glad I read comments on these vids.. what form or kind would you take ? I guess there are several but it’s hard to figure that out. !! 😩thanks for replying back 😅
@silveraddict875 so, how are you, bro?
@@LJAG77 take magnesium in the morning please. Magnesium can disrupt your deep sleep and you will start waking up not rested or feeling recovered. You might feel more irritable and frustrated.
i was on 25mg of vitamin d once a day the first blood tests were 21 so i took them for 2 years and then my blood tests came back 75 so then my doc told me to stop because i was getting vertigo attacks and brain fog so went back to the doctor thanks to my wife and explained he was not right and she explained the symptions he told her to grab me from the waiting room and come in then told me i would have stop taking them for a week and then to go back and see him for further blood test but at the time he wanted me to take a dosage of 7000 mg once a week i then went to the chemist and they informed me that that dosage would put me into hospital very fast could you please tell me if i really need to be on them vitamin d overload derrick thanks
Ty !! . . . YOU ~ ROCK ! ! 🤛
What was her vitamin D dosage? 1,000 units per day?
Does D3 work the same as D
Ty, Doctor...
I would like to know if
47 year old female. My level was at 11.
Please add to take Vit. K2 mk7 with Vit d3 so it goes into bones and teeth and not into heart and blood. See Dr. Abs video on this.
I have all the symptoms of low vit D and I always test low for it. However when ever I try to take it, it makes me so tired I literally cannot function. I have tried everything I have taken it with vit k, I take vit 3. I know it's not just me I have researched it and there are a lot of people who go through this but no one is asking why this happens. My diet is clean and I do not eat hardly any sugar or processed food. Please if anyone can help with this, please let me know.
I would like to know if you take vitamin K2 also with vitamin D3 because I was told that it’s important to take both.
Doesn't vitamin b also help with energy n mood
Is vitamin D the same as D3?
My vitamin d3 level is 8.2 I'm 28 years old male. I'm having body pain completely and hair loss. Please advise me what to do?
You need to supplement with vitaminD
My level is 20, my doctor recommended 2x 10000iu pulls once per week
What kind of joint pain you feel?
@@rolandgerges3741 I feel sounds in sholder joints & pain especially when the temperature is low I feel worse
Hi. ! Are you doing any better ? Did you get some help. ?
@@rolandgerges3741 joints gets stiffness and pain radiates from sholder to head at times feels worse
@@LJAG77 I got help but doctor recommended 60 thousand iu of vitamin d once a week. Today after 1 month of supplements I have given for vitamin d3 testing waiting for results mostly tomorrow evening I will get my report, waiting for it.
10K IU'S seems like a large amount, is your body able to handle that much?
I don't know how many months I was regularly taking Vit D3 10,000 IU with K2 100 mcg, but I got Vit D toxicity, with heart flutters and heart pounding. This irregularity has not resolved, though the serious constipation has. I just want to say, don't do this without testing. When I realized what was happening, finding calcium in urine, and asked my doctor for a test, the toxicity had reached 117. Yes, use it if you need it, but not without testing.
117 is not so toxic level. I have level 145 and i m completely fine after taking VitD3.
Magnesium helps with conversion
Keeps the calcium out of soft tissue helps relax muscles
@@SnigdhaSahoo1 Everyone is different. What is not toxic for you could be toxic for someone else. Surprisingly, I got Vit D toxicity from taking only 500 IUs each day after about 4 weeks. So it builds up. Chances are my levels were already at a really good level and I set it off with the supplement. Taking magnesium alongside made it worse. So yeah, to the person's comment. Never take a Vit D unless you've been tested.
117 is not toxic. I tested in January and it was 549. I feel
Fine but have to stop vit d for 6 months
@Codysurfsup 500IU or 5000 IU?
My son has leg hyper pigmentation and the doctor said he has b12 deficiency. Dang..lies
D was 9 ng..so...he is d deficient badly.
I am giving him 20000 unitsper day since some time.
I am 47 and taking 50000 per day. We need to wait and see how we do.
This dose may be too high.. Kindly check with your doctor
@@revanthganesh3808 no. Not at all. Doctors know nothing about nutrition by minerals and vitamins and so, why on earth I will check with a doctor of something they have never learnt of the truth.
You can learn about health and your weaknesses. You can be the best doctor to yourself with the natural elements God has given for mankind to use.
Even if you take 50k units or 100000 units which is very tiny amounts in mg measures, it is not bad.
After 3month, not consume again?
If I'm taking a multivitamin, can I still take 10k Iu per day? I tested 14
No that's a lot . Your body only metabolizes 1,200iu a day which means you only need 2-4000iu daily for 3-6 months you'll see results.
D and D3 is a different vitamin..????
Should you take vitamin D supplement all year round or should you stop taking it over the summer months in the uk?
Winter when less sun and going outside 😊
Can vitamin D deficiency cause the glands under jaw and neck to be inflamed?
The Parathyroid is down there, and it starts to activate when you're short on D.
@@up4opensoo what happens when the parathyroid is activated ? Thanks for your reply ! 😊
@@LJAG77 As far as the literature I've read says, it will make more Parathyroid Hormone, which is designed to regulate and maintain the balance of calcium and phosphorus in your body, as Vit D and K also regulate calcium and phosphorus.
Hey @Dr. LeGrand. What is your opinion on Dr. Marshall research about vitamin D and especially his protocol ? He claims 25-OH vitamin D (storage vit d ) above 20ng/ml becomes immunosuppressive.
Sunlight is essential for your body to be able to use.Certain devitami , don't know
From all the things you've tried, what gave you the most energy not counting coffee of course
Vit D3
Even if you think you get enough sun and supplement I always say TAKE EVEN MORE vit D
Yeah vitamin d is important but i cant get it back to normal levels any suggestions?
Get some sun in the morning it should directly touch your skin without clothes from the window u can just open the window because no screen must block it or take a 5000iu vitamine D from pharmacy
A 50 000 unit tablet, Calciferol, you may need a prescription though the smaller family pharmacies normally give it without. Take K2 with it, take once a week and check your levels again after 2 months
Kiznaive hello, I am a physio therapist, and have found that when you take the vitamin D3 with Vitamin K2 , your levels will increase fairly quickly. Take with food.
Liquid vitamin D3 absorbs better
@@browndiamond457hi! Sorry to bother but is the liquid really better? I have D3 pills I take 10k dail,yes it helps but I want a form that'll keep the levels up and longer ,I need to fix my gut too so I may not be absorbing it all though I feel better
My vitamin d level is 16. I have started exposing body to sun 15 mins a day early morning. how long will it take to recover deficiency?
That is very low. You get about 1000iu every minute of exposure under optimal conditions close to the equator. It could take several months to correct that without supplementing with superfoods or drops.
The person who responded to you is incorrect. Do not listen to them. Here is a link to a study www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9131791/ it takes only 24-48 hours for D3 to reach optimal levels in your body from sunlight.
@@remedychef I was curious from your comment so I did some research and it turns out that after exposure to sunlight it only takes 24-48 hours to reach optimal D3 serum levels within the body. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC9131791/
Doctor please reply,
I am going through a very difficult situation like right knee pain headache and weakness like dark circles, stomach pain,penis erection problem, cracking sound of bones,sore tongue,hairfall,dull skin,dry lips so what should i do please suggest me it will be a great help.....
How r u now
@@MusharafM-ju4jn nothing helped
What is the best brand of vitamin D that you would recommend? Also hoping I can take it without swallowing those huge oblong pills
I buy ‘Jarrow’ brand n I get it in a 2500 IU n I take 3 a day.. but I think I’ll take 4 now since hearing this vid.. I have severe dry eye n rheumatoid arthritis.
You can buy liquid Vitamin D. Btw Jarrow is a good brand and I believe NOW brand is good and I believe they have the liquid.
I use a spray from the brand "BetterYou". Also includes K2. The only issue is I dont know how consistent the dosing is as it says 3 sprays = 3000IU but sometimes the pump can be awkward and sometimes sprays out more or less so you dont really know how much your getting.
Right on man, nice jive talking…
which D? D3..there are several.
D3, D2 is synthetic and complete rubbish.
What about Vitamin D and E.D.?
I took vitamin d without cofactors and got severe jaw pain. My doc tested my vitamin d after getting off the vitamin d megadoses and they were low according to the vitamin d test i took after seeing my doc. I tried taking a small amount after taking rhat vitamin d test and i got severe jaw pain from that as well. How much vitamin k and what form are you supposed to take with d3? I take plenty of magnesium now. I feel like that lady you mentioned where she had focus and fatigue issues. Im also in a health group that recommends not taking vitamin d and that it may be a vitamib d absorption issue that can be helped with rosmarinic acid and to be weary of vitamin d because it is used in rat poison. So vitamin d is something im confused about and scared of trying again
Ali veliki problem za sve nas, koji želimo uzimati vitamine, minerale, suplement i boostere za mozak JESTE STO NE ZNAMO KAKO IH I U KOJE DOBA DANA KOMBINIRATI. Sve je dobro, ali ne mogu sve da jedem, pijem, suplement igram odjednom.I bijeli luk, i B vitamin i C vitamini i D vitamin, i magnezijim i lugovu otopinu TREBA NAM VIDEO DA SVE SE TO UKOMBINUJE.
I went to a doctor. I had a good tan. She tried to test for Vitamin D. 😅 The things doctors don't know?
Dark people take in less vit D
I hope you are aware of the dangers of excessive vitamin D.
I keep hearing in videos that we need to take 10,000 iu of Vit. D. Where the F do you get that? Stores only have bottles of 1,000. I take vit D but only the 1,000 a day. I'd have to take 10 pills a day and the bottles only usually have 60 or 90 pills. That won't last long.
You don't mega dose forever, just until you get your levels up to what is good for you! After raising your levels you take a maintenance dose. Chiropractors/functional medicine Drs/Nutritionists sell higher quality vitamins/supplements, that are more absorbable and bioavailable! You need to make sure it's Cholecalciferol which is D3 preferably with vitamin K in it or must take K with your D3. I use an Emulsified liquid drop D3/K, it bypasses the liver and raises my level faster than any cheap over the counter junk. Good luck 😊
@@allison471love your comment ! I never knew about this aspect of dosing. !! Guess I’ll have to try that.. I have rheumatoid arthritis n I need D3 in me.. it’s like we all have to take a college course in everything. !! I’m 70 now n when I start talking I feel like people think I’m trying to be a smarty pants.. I’m just trying to survive. !!! 😅😊
Thank you for the video clips so far.
But serious question, why didn't you just tell her to GO OUTSIDE!?

💐💐👍🏼👍🏼
I'm sorry but you're a doctor and can't spell losing correctly?
dog your very first sentence had 2 actuallys followed by 2 definitelys. i know youre not a dr of english or literature but cmon bro
10,000IUs over 2 months = 600,000IUs. This is a lethal and toxic dose of vitamin D. 300,000IUs is the absolute maximum tolerance, even for those with a severe deficiency. Vitmin D toxicity is no laughing matter and yet you don't cover this in your video at all.
Also, none of your videos talk of any drawbacks with the practices youn advocate. For instance, it is widely accepted that L-tyrosine comes with cardiovascular risks. Also, L-tyrosine and stimulant medications interact. And yet, you're marketing L-tyrosine supplements to people with ADHD who are likely on stimulant medication without mentioning the dangers.
Your degree is in naturopathic medicine from a university that is widely regarded as producing students versed only in pseudoscience. The fact that you're targeting ADHDers like this sickens me. You sicken me.
You should study more
What the hell are you talking about?
Where did you get your information? There was a study recently released where patients received up to 50,000 IU for 7 years without detriment. For some reason FDA guides are erroneously low, and there are plenty of studies supporting higher doses. Do some research before accusing people of harming others.
Luke Rowlands, People that, apparently, don't do any proper research and then proceed to attack and insult others with their ignorance, sicken me.
What university did he go to?
If you have low D how much IU is good to take there so many diff dosages
