Rhonda Patrick on the CRAZY Longevity Benefits of Vitamin D

~70% of the US population has inadequate vitamin D levels (less than 30 ng/mL). The health consequences of this are plenty. In this video, expect to learn:

• How vitamin D regulates the protein-encoding human genome
• Why Vitamin D deficiency is so common
• How vitamin D deficiency accelerates aging & increases mortality risk
• Why older individuals produce less vitamin D
• The "sweet spot" for blood levels of vitamin D
• The vitamin D dose required to raise serum levels by 5 ng/mL
• Why some people require a higher vitamin D supplementation dose to raise blood levels

Started taking 10000 IU late 2020 when I read the direct relationship of low levels and infections. Over 3 years later my level is close to 90 and never had a cold since.

One of the best researchers / speakers when it comes to nutrition, exercise, and sauna use and how it affects your health and longevity. Can't get enough of her lectures and interviews.

[SusieQ]

Husband and I were started on 5000iu per day, 4 years ago as COVID-19 hit. . Our levels test in the middle of ok range. We're 75 and 66 years old respectively. We seldom ever get sick. 😊

[MassGainingGuy]

My Vitamin D levels currently are at 98. I have so much energy and stronger in the gym.

[bobmester]

That people are still deficient after years of Covid is very sad. Why doesn’t our public health system promote this? It’s basic public health.

[HAL_ICantDoThat]

Great video. I would also add magnesium is essential too for the metabolism of Vitamin D.

[Therover]

I've been taking 15, 000 IU of Vitamin D daily for a month, and I've never felt better. My wife has noticed that I can now open stubborn jar lids on the first try every time. Oddly enough, my usually aloof cat has started following me around the house like a shadow - I think he senses my new vitamin-enhanced aura.

Dr. Patrick, appreciate your series on Vitamin D and other topics! Thanks a bunch!!

[PeterJohnson-qm]

Thanks for the information you provide.

The no 1 biomarker for how well you will age is natural hormone production. When hormones decline health and wellness declines. Sarcopenia arrives loss of bone density and reduced activity levels. This is why all biohackers are on TRT to attempt to compensate for this deficit. I went from 334 to 960 in around three months all natural no TRT. This book should be essential reading for all men.

You have to take it with a good fatty meal for increased absorbtion. Add magnesium and k2 also.

[EddyFeyen]

I take 10.000iu sometimes daily and then a few days not and my dose is 54ng/ml and not getting higher. What people also should know that everytime they get sick, your reserves are less and less

[WaxDat]

My dosages are 200k to 300k IU’s per week and I cycle on and off. I also test levels on a regular.

[brettmasonmedia]

This is great info to get out to the public so thanks for that. I just don’t understand why you kept saying 4000 was the upper tolerable limit. That’s not anywhere near the upper tolerable limit. There are many papers where they gave much more than that for extended periods with no side effect. None. I can tell you that most obese people will need to take 10k daily or more to have any shot at hitting that upper range of 60.

[LynnMurphy-ev]

Thought all was good with me, but bc of you, I thought I'd try adding some magnesium bc of your info that so many are deficient in it. 2-3 days in, I was astonished. Upped my energy level, all worked better. Had no idea that things were off for me until things were better

[akavelar]

My daily intake of D is 20.000ui a day. My wife, 40.000ui. It's been 3 years since we started. Never felt cold symptoms after that or from others, like coronavirus. Overall We have more energy, and for some reason we never gain weight. But i dont know if there is any relation to that. My wife uses for multiple sclerosis treatment, and never felt better. It just stopped the progress of her disease.

Does anyone know what seminar this is clipped from? Would love to watch the full event.

[mustardseedist]

30, 000 iu 800 mg Magnesium Glycinate, 500 mcg K2, Borax, and a host of other supps. (100ng/ml - 150ng/ml)

[rhombifer]

it could still help depending on their blood level
