where can i get magnesium glycinate from and is it okay to have vitamin k2 also?

check out "iherb" you get every supplement you need from there. But you should get the Magnesium Glycinate in capsule form, because it tastes really horrific.
@@jorgesanabria6484NOW brand is a good reasonably priced mag glycinate supplement to order online. K2 is important for absorbing D3., especially if not eating enuf greens. Jarrow brand also good for things like these.
Excellent and thorough. Explaining the synergistic substrates (that which acts along with what else) bioavailability metabolism. Also beneficial is discussing conversion mechanisms into hormones... Dr. Rhonda is so approachable and down-to-earth.
The term "vitamin D" itself is a misnomer, given that it is a prohormone and that its presence in food sources (like that of phytoestrogens) is incidental worldwide. On that basis, I would submit that the use of "vitamin D (cholecalciferol) supplements" should be referred to as "vitamin D (cholecalciferol) replacement" and therefore as a pharmacological intervention. Moreover, I would submit that we do not know enough at this time to say that the practice of oral "vitamin D" (cholecalciferol) replacement has a metabolic effect that is equivalent to endogenous synthesis from a cholesterol derivative and release into the bloodstream by the human skin upon exposure to sunlight (which also has implications for production of melatonin and other beneficial metabolic processes).
What I find ironic and perplexing is how I am extremely fair skinned, red hair and all, and I also live in Florida yet am somehow deficient even though according to my genetics, I should be better about naturally synthesizing vitamin d with less sunlight.
Dr. Patrick has a mountain of knowledge regarding health and longevity. The problem for us grunts is in effectively assimilating her extensive guidance in a manner customized to our specific physiology,financial resources, and goals. That is a giant leap....I would say "a bridge too far". So, what to do? Personally, I try to derive the primary, most important points while dreaming of the day when we have 24/7 biometrics being monitored by our smartwatch coupled with sophisticated AI that constantly provides suggestions on diet, supplements, exercise, sunlight exposure, sleep, etc. I'm guessing 5 years. 🙏
Living in Northern Colorado in my 70's and yes I have been able to lay out in the sun for several days all winter in the last few years. I take 2000 IU 2 days a week along with a teaspoon of cod liver oil every day. Just had the dr. check my D levels for this summer and they are at 58 mg/mL, which I call a win. I do agree that it is a combination of sun exposure , good diet, and some supplementation.
My specialist told me to keep supplementing with vitamin D and couldn't praise the benefits enough. He stated that the majority of people are deficient.
Chat GPT answered me: Pedro, your body generates vitamin D when your skin is exposed to ultraviolet B (UVB) rays from the sun. Recent studies suggest that the best times for vitamin D production are typically between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m., with midday exposure being the most effective. This is because the sun is at its highest point, and UVB rays can more easily penetrate the atmosphere during these hours. Seasonally, the ability to produce vitamin D changes depending on where you are located. For example, during the winter months in regions far from the equator, the sun's rays are weaker, and UVB exposure is insufficient for your skin to synthesize adequate vitamin D. In contrast, during the summer, shorter periods of sun exposure can be enough to meet your needs. Experts suggest aiming for 15 to 30 minutes of sunlight exposure a few times a week, though this varies depending on skin tone, location, and time of year. If you're in a location where sunlight is limited during certain months, like in northern Europe during winter, supplements or dietary sources of vitamin D may be necessary to maintain healthy levels
I started my channel on addiction after getting sober. It’s funny how many things I thought were a vitamin deficencia that were actually just drug abuse and withdrawal effects. Now that I’m sober the ones I really notice are high epa omega 3, d3 and magnesium’s thanks dr Ronda for the info! Gotta get more sun

It will come as a shock, but south of the equator has at 37 degree latitude, and what’s more, people live there. I know, shocking isn’t it. And Australia is close to the equator? Some of it is. What percentage of the population lives in those areas? Very small.
“During summer, the Earth's orbit brings Australia closer to the sun (as compared to Europe during its summer), resulting in an additional 7% solar UV intensity. Coupled with our clearer atmospheric conditions, this means that Australians are exposed to up to 15% more UV than Europeans.” Even in winter, the sun is much hotter here in Australia. I’m originally from Argentina and the sun over there (in winter) is just like a picture on the sky 😁
Not so much. I’ve always been well within normal BMI range (20) and I have been chronically vitamin D deficient for over a decade even with supplementation.
the thing is if you dont get vitamin d, you are more likly to get cancer, you are less happier. Serotin is released and other endorphins when you go in the sun. The Only downside is you can get burnt but I heard people on the carnivore diet dont have these issues, as the dont burn anymore
So your body tans naturally to protect itself from UV radiation from the sun? Why is it that this year my skin is pale and doesn’t tan but last year it tanned well? Is there environmental factors or did something change biologically ?
where can I ask rhonda questions? I have an interest in colognes but I have heard they contain endocrine disruptors. Should I just give up cologne as a hobby if it is that bad?
Read a study on covid hospitalized. All extremely low Vit D. Read only 2 overdoses recorded and one was the laďy had taken a bottle a day for years. Months later the media was sharing how dangerous it is. All roads lead to pfizer and moderna
I found out I was deficient, my levels were very low. So I started taking 60,000 IU sachets every week. Should I continue that or perhaps increase the gap, every two weeks or every month perhaps ?
My vitamin d was 173 and my doctor urged me to stop. 3 weeks later I’m down to 36. It’s hard to control and ensure stable levels. When I started vitamin d I had 17.
Vitamins aren’t a great source of it either. A lot of people take it and don’t get great results. In America, we spent 90% of our time indoors and we need to change that.
@@veryaware Their recommendations are based on the VITAL trial. Based on that I'll reduce my D intake to 1000 IU/day. There doesn't seem to be a benefit above that.
