Hello tom, it was worth watching. thanks for it.
may I know can we take it [ only health supplements ] in regular basis or how it is we should take without affecting our organ system. if so how to clear up or detox kindly reply. thankyou

Hi, Tom. If you are taking 5ooo units of vitamin D daily throughout the winter, I'd be curious what your blood vitamin D level is at winter's end. That dose is 3/4 of the dose I use in my patients with moderate to severe vitamin D deficiency (I'm an endocrinologist). I have seen a patient on a similar dose of vitamin D year-'round develop a vitamin D level above the recommend reference range. Regarding beta carotene (vitamin A precursor), I recall 2 randomized, placebo-controlled trials in which smokers and ex-smokers had more cancers in the beta carotene arm than in the placebo arm of the studies. I'm sure you are not a smoker/ex-smoker, but some of your viewers might be. I would imagine you may be getting enough vitamin A from your diet and the cod liver oil supplements, such that the beta-carotene-based vitamin A supplement might not be needed. What are your thoughts? Did you ever calculate the micronutrient content of your diet over say a week to see what gaps in nutrients from food alone were there? Take care, Ross

great supplements. The dose of Vitamin C you're taking is very high though, the Linus Pauling fondation/institution recommends at least 400mg, to 1g. I don't think any research had shown benefits for more (except cancer and very high doses). Did you find some ?

Great information! Very inspiring for the new year!

+tom merrick Thanks very much, very informative.
One thing: It's no use to buy whey protein from grass fed cows (These benefits include a significantly higher amount of essential omega-3 fatty acids, CLA and vitamin E, as well as no antibiotics, hormones or pesticide contamination). All these benefits are stored in the fat and thereby processed out: That means that if a protein powder manufacturer is using whey protein from organic/grass-fed milk, just about ALL of the extra omega-3 fats, CLA and vitamin E have been removed during the manufacturing process anyway!
It's just a rip-off to make more money.

Thank you for sharing! Interesting stuff! I don't take any supplements other than omega 3 twice a day, feels great.
I think I would try to take some magnesium.. Getting trouble sleeping normally.

Got today Mountains fresh's siberian ginseng. For some reason it doesn't say organic in mine. Oh well..I hope there's no difference. Thanks for the great video Tom :)
