    Good video. Mistake at 1:42. Video refers to "sunlight", but means "supplements". Before agriculture, I've heard that humans got plentiful Vitamin D from animal sources, but after the agricultural revolution had to rely primarily on sunlight, and this is when europeans' skin turned pale.

    Good video, Felix. But I think you forgot to mention zinc and boron as cofactor for Vitamin D.

  • @herenow2895
    @herenow2895 2 години тому +3

    What about Boron ? I understand that it is also an important D3 co factor.
    Do you think it can be easy to get too much vitamin D in relation to co factors if you are supplementing in the summer and getting a good amount of sun too ?
    Maybe better to lower the supplement dose in the summer ? or if not, at least increase K2 and Magnesium ?

    Hi Felix, great content. You always put out great information that is hard to come across online. How do you feel about vitamin D lamps like the Sperti, or the Mitolux UVB lamp for raising vitamin D? They’re expensive, but do you like these as alternatives for folks who live in seasonal climates?

    Here's something interesting that I've read recently on this topic.
    Higher Vitamin D blood levels can be damaging, if you don't get enough Calcium from your diet or supplements (Calcium will be released from the bones).
    Are strong fluctuations in the Vitamin D level throughout the year bad for us? Humans are designed to live in areas where there's a lot of sun throughout the year.
    Another cofactor that nobody mentions is Boron.

    How many days should I avoid supplementing Vitamin D before taking lab test so that I don’t skew the tests? Is a day or 2 of abstaining enough to get an accurate blood level?

    I presume we are talking about vitamin D3, it’s stored in fat, so depending on the percentage body fat it can take several months of taking moderate to high doses of before D3 before you get adequate 25-hydroxy-D levels in your plasma.

    Can you recommend a cod liver oil that was extracted naturally and has 100% omegas from the oil and not from another source added like alpha tocopherol?
    Do you trust cholecalciferol being that it's used as a rat poison?

    Vit K2 regulates. Take with Vit D3. Take with a fat or buy it in a capsule that has coconut oil. You’ll be fine.

    Like most wannabe influencers, some good but commonly available info mixed with some contentious stuff that I certainly have seen very cogent alternative information to one very obvious being about almost full body exposure to midday sun. Also I have seen a study that linked 3000iu (not 1000iu) to a 5-6 year increase of maintaining a better functioning immune into older aging. The problem with such people is too much book/academic learning but not say 20 years of active working in the field dealing with real peoples health problems and testing the theoretical learning

    What about skin pigmentation, would a lighter skin person require less sunlight to get their required vit D, than say a darker skin person who has much higher pigmentation to block the sun? Does a higher pigmentation person have less of a need to require vit D because their body regulates itself differently?
    I think vit D requirements are different in different peoples depending on their environment.

    • @balbe
      @balbe 35 хвилин тому

      Yes darker skin needs more sunlight exposure to produce the same amount of VIT D. But depending on their diet they may have more VIT D from their food.
      And I think we all need quite some VIT D. There's more Depression in countries with less sunlight
