Why the heck aren’t vitamins tested in a CBC???? I was losing hair, had progressing peripheral neuropathy, was exhausted, gained a lot of weight, and developed arrhythmia and pre-diabetes. After many tests and doctor visits and seeing many doctors, I finally saw a doctor who decided to run T-4 (TSH was normal), vitamin D, vitamin K, vitamin B12, B6, and Folate. T-4 was low - I had hypothyroidism! The thyroid affects SO MANY systems and can cause so many chemical abnormalities in the body. My B12 and folate were low. B6 was extremely high. Vitamin K was high. Vitamin D was very low. My neuropathy is permanent because the abnormal vitamin and thyroid levels went undiagnosed for so long. Those abnormalities created a host of other issues, including weight gain of 50 pounds, pre-diabetes, liver and kidney disease, and arrhythmia that landed me in a hospital. I’m tearing up just writing this. All of this could have been prevented if vitamins had been tested routinely by my doctors and if a complete thyroid panel was routine. Why isn’t this done? How many others have been let down by a medical community that doesn’t put much stock in the huge effect vitamins have on our health? How many others went for years with undiagnosed hypothyroidism because medical textbooks and training tell doctors to only look at the TSH value? It is maddening. My body is a mess because of doctor neglect. I do not trust doctors to think beyond the most basic of training. This was all preventable.

What a rollercoaster ride my deficiency in Vit D was! My level was 3 instead of about 50. Crippling insomnia, nightmares when I did sleep, often of putting my hand to my mouth and all my teeth crumbling into it. Teeth so sensitive I couldn't brush them, had to curl my tongue away from touching them. Intense, deep fatigue - doing something then feeling like I had slammed into a brick wall and could barely move. Barely being able to get up the stairs to go to bed. More hair in my brush than on my head. Thought I was going slowly insane. What a relief to be diagnosed eventually with fibromyalgia and a Vit D deficiency! I still feel my teeth occasionally to make sure they are all there still!

I don’t know, or understand why allopathic doctors can’t figure anything out when you go see them. I mean, really, they go to medical school for many years, yet when you go in to see them with a problem like vitamin D deficiency, they can’t figure it out. I had a very bad deficiency in vitamin D and I had to go to a naturopathic doctor and they figured it out on the spot. After putting me on vitamin D supplement, I started to feel much better. Four months later, I feel 100% better after feeling like complete and utter garbage for the past year. The funny thing is, my allopathic doctor’s office called me a couple days ago saying that there was a new medication that my doctor wanted me to try. Yeah right, ain’t gonna happen.

Pain was the biggest marker for me. Joint, muscle and general. Also fatigue, brain fog, vertigo and many other symptoms. I made the connection with vitamin D (other than watching these videos) because it happened the same time last year! Also that my general symptoms improve if I can sit in the Sun for a while.

Taking 100, 000 iu every 10 days for 2 months made me so much better ( mood & energy especially), i wish people realised how important that vit is

Vitamin D deficiency definitely contributes to Psoriasis too. I found taking extra Vit D (4000 IU per day) stopped all psoriasis (moderate scalp psoriasis), improved my mood, my sleep, my energy & reduced my general levels of anxiety ! I had never thought my Vitamin D levels night be low because I eat a healthy diet (lots of vit D rich oily fish) and take a multivitamin & mineral supplement daily. Turns out the multivitamin has an almost pointless amount of vitamin D (10ug) & because I live in the UK we don't get much decent vitamin D promoting sun for 6-8 months of the year. I'll be sticking with 4000IU of Vitamin D per day going forward.

I want to make a somewhat technical question: It is mentioned that vitamin D can improve the condition in people with depression, and it has been studied that there are vitamin D receptors in the brain. Now, it is also mentioned that vitamin D should be consumed together with vitamin K2 to prevent calcifications in the arteries. What vitamin K2 does is ensure that the calcium in vitamin D is absorbed specifically in the bones and not in another part of the body. So the question is this: Doesn't the availability of vitamin D along with vitamin K2 cause it to go only to the bones and not go to the brain receptors? That is to say... by taking vitamin K2 do we cancel out any emotional well-being that vitamin D alone can produce? I appreciate anyone who can provide me with some information on this matter. Greetings.

I'm loving your videos! Do you have any thoughts on Qualia Mind? I mean the caffeine-free version, I know you don't recommend stimulants.

I don't know how many months I was regularly taking Vit D3 10, 000 IU with K2 100 mcg, but I got Vit D toxicity, with heart flutters and heart pounding. This irregularity has not resolved, though the serious constipation has. I just want to say, don't do this without testing. When I realized what was happening, finding calcium in urine, and asked my doctor for a test, the toxicity had reached 117. Yes, use it if you need it, but not without testing.
