Coimbra Protocol Trained Doctors:

What Vitamin D Serum Level Should We Target, for What?

DATA:

Did you know you could have normal blood vitamin D levels but still have a vitamin D deficiency?

Vitamin D resistance interferes with vitamin D levels and vitamin D absorption. Genetic problems, Lyme disease, and certain infections downgrade the vitamin D receptor. A deficiency in zinc, magnesium, or vitamin K2 will inhibit vitamin D function in the body. High cortisol, darker skin, diabetes, obesity, and other health conditions will also affect vitamin D absorption.

The RDA for vitamin D is only 600 IU when you actually need 8,895 IU every day! Research has shown that low vitamin D levels increase your risk for viral infections. People with tumors and cancer have been found to have low vitamin D.

New research has shown the benefits of vitamin D for autoimmune conditions. Dr. Coimbra from Brazil has used high vitamin D levels to treat patients with autoimmune conditions, and the results have been amazing. Another doctor using high doses of vitamin D3 has over 900 video testimonials of improvement in people with autoimmune diseases.

One eye doctor in Germany wrote a book about using high doses of vitamin D3 for glaucoma and other eye-related problems. “The Pharmacological Basis of Therapeutics 4th Edition” addressed vitamin D resistance and vitamin D dosage of 50,000 IU to up to 500,000 IU!

Vitamin D allows you to absorb more calcium, so when you take high doses of vitamin D, make sure you’re not consuming calcium supplements. Take vitamin D with magnesium because it helps regulate calcium.

to me it seems like these doctors on YouTube are more passionate and caring about people's well-being more than our primary care doctors that we go see in person😮

I was an ER RN during the pandemic. The physicians started giving patients large doses of Vitamin D in the ER and they continued in their hospital stay. That's when I discovered Vit D was so important. I was taking 2, 000 IU in my multivitamin but then bumped it up to 10K units and have ever since. I'm never sick.

Six years ago, I was diagnosed with psoriasis, and four years ago, I was diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis. Before I was diagnosed with psoriatic arthritis, I couldn't walk or stand. My ankles were so weak I couldn't stand on uneven ground. My rheumatologist checked my vitamin D and it was at 14. Almost gone. My doctor put me on 5000iu a day and within months, I was strong again. I never knew what low vitamin D could cause. My regular doctor never checked my vitamin and mineral levels and if he had, I wouldn't had gone through the pain and suffering.

Best teacher / instructor award should go to Dr Berg for his clear and concise explanation! Thank you!

Hi. 56 year old male in northern latitude here. I take 20, 000 IU of D3 with proportionate doses of K2 and magnesium daily, for the last three years. Never had a sniffle or any other malaise. Take this seriously. ❤

This doctor needs to be cloned and put into every medical school to re-educate doctors with correct information about health. He is brilliant, and a gem of a person to anyone with common sense about how to improve their health in a sustained way. I just love learning from his simple to understand videos.. I respect this man immensely. 🙏🏻🙏🙏🏻

[jodipokorski]

I have been learning from Dr. Berg for exactly five years today. Have not been sick one day.

[healthdailylife]

I had no idea how crucial vitamin D is for fighting inflammation and autoimmune diseases! The link between vitamin D resistance, magnesium, and our immune system is mind-blowing. It’s crazy that so many people might be deficient without knowing it. Time to rethink those RDAs. Thanks for sharing!

[jonathanc]

100% your videos have changed the way I approach health and wellness. THANK YOU for providing all this important info for free!

[edithwertjanz]

Hashimoto, endometriose, liver cirrhosis level 1, overweight, lots of infections, Vit. D level for years below 30 and the doctors gave me 600 I.U. Well, little did I know.
Now on keto and 50.000 I.U. vit. D, with K2, Magnesium, zinc. Feeling much better.

I watch a lot of old movies and I always found it interesting that when someone was sick with a serious ailment, they would put the patient outside for several hours every day to lie in the sun. I guess they knew more than we give them credit.

[ElleeZee]

This video is fire. So much unbiased information and straight talk. Dr Berg treats us like intelligent individuals who have the capacity to be advocates for our own health. I like that he tells what to look out for and how to reduce those risks.

[Habtegebriel]

I don't know how you survived all of this ...Thank you for all of the information you share.

[amarraa.l]

This just reminded me of something about Vitamind D ! This book called “The 23 Former Doctor Truths by Lauren Clark”. My health shifted in a whole new way.

[Danzem]

I had gut issues mostly in the morning
Depression with unknown cause
Eczema
Heart palpitations
After using 10k IUs for just 14 days i noticed a big change
D3+K2 saved my life

My 9 year old daughter almost died from dangerously low Vitamin D and calcium. It took months of visiting hospitals and Doctors to no avail. Her health was failing, couldn’t walk, hands would stiffen. When I requested a sonogram, they found fluid around her heart, admitted her to hospital cardiology, but when they did her blood work they found the problem and she became the endocrinologist patient. She had rickets. Doctors don’t know the symptoms of rickets because they think people don’t get that anymore. They kept her 8 days, giving high doses of vitamin D and calcium. This child who could not walk when she was admitted, got out the bed and walked after two days. I am a true believer in taking vitamin D. I get her tested 2x a year, she is now 21 years. One way I could tell if her D is low, is her gait is off.

Dr. Eric Berg thank you, God Bless you .

[gretta]

I wish I'd found the Dr sooner!! I am so thankful to have finally found him. I just found out I have AIHA on top of many autoimmune disorders.
