Vitamin D & Your Immune System with special guest Michael Holick, Ph. D., M.D.

Forty percent of the world’s population is Vitamin D deficient! Our bodies need Vitamin D from birth until death as every single cell in our body has a Vitamin D receptor and depends on it for optimal function. Did you know that Vitamin D is an important immune modulator and is actually a hormone by definition?

2 years ago my D3 level was at 100 and my doctor told me
to cut way back on D3. I told her no, then I told her
my energy level is very high, and I play golf 2 to 3 times
a day and I'm hitting the ball very far and very hard.

Spain did a small VitD study 76 patients..were given VitD active form hidroferol calcifediol prescription grade .266 mcg which equals about 11, 000 IU VitD..3 doses..first day in hospital were given the first dose .. results 100% reduction in mortality which means no patients died and 90% reduction in ICU admissions..only 1 patient went to the ICU briefly....the active form of vitD hidroferol was used because it takes 7-10 days for all the VitD to be absorbed in the body.. using the over the counter OTC VitD 3 this takes 7-10 days ...needs to travel to the liver there processed and shipped to the kidneys then transported to the cells in the body...if your in the hospital you don't have time to waste...hence the active form VitD hidroferol calcifediol prescription grade....

Magnesium is a must to help absorb vitamin D. As well K2 should be taken if taking D higher then 10, 000iu’s / day

[wizardatmath]

Wish Magnesium and Boron were addressed.... 😔

[andrewfinlay]

The most important educational video I have ever watched.
Dr. Holick is a genius who has devoted his medical career to research on vitamin D, and is giving us a marvelous gift of knowledge. He's not pushing a drug. He's informing those who want to learn about a way to help your life be better. Listen to what he says and take notes.

I'm 65 years of age. I have been taking vitamin D3 4000iu together with Vitamin C 1000mg for the last few months and i was tested positive with COVID just a few days ago with fever, cough, sore throat and chills. I than boosted up my Vitamin D3 to 10000iu for a week. I have not been vaccinated. I tested negative just two days ago. Now i'm back to normal.

I feel my best at a blood level of 70-90 and I was diagnosed with MS and Graves Disease years ago. I’ve been able to heal my body with diet, nutrition and vitamin supplements.

I believe that conventional medicine does not want us to know about natural remedies!!

[robertrohde]

I take 10, 000 to 15, 000 Iu per day. I also eat fish and eggs. I do get a fair amount of sun living in the mountains in Colorado.

I want Hoetz as my Dr… Hollickbis an academic- not involved in real life effectiveness!!! Glad he did the research but it’s Drs like Hoetz that puts it to use and saves lives

[fhpl]

I’m out in the sun everyday and I still need vitamin D daily!!

[lmyers]

Not sure if Hollick has come around since this video on dose and range- Hoetz is correct on getting to 80-100!!! Whatever dose that takes- for me that’s 50k daily so far so good at 90ng

[deborahd.]

How accurate are lab and home vitamin d tests?

[saginaw]

If i take much D3 buy mouth it bothers my digestion. My doctor does not know if it is possible to inject it. What say you?

[tracysmith-yvlt]

[lmyers]

WTH can the mistake of calling it a Vitamin - change it to a HORMONE!!!

[misha]

Is there any effect from vitamin D on hiv?

[chingonbass]
