Thnx. RN here. 66 yo. Euro. Raised near Canada border. Started out at very low D3. Have slipped into osteo arthritis. Now taking 50,000 IU D3 per week per Rx. Recent lab up to 41...this took three years. Happy with this. Keep vigilant. ❤
I personnally have been taking 6000 IU of Vitamin D since I begun listening to you Dr. John. The results are nothing short of remarkable. First of all my immunity is working much better, my low level inflammation has basically vanished, and my muscles feel much more flexible. But the biggest difference is with my mental health as I find it much easier to relax and letting go of my anxiety. Of course I know that this is anecdotal evidence, but for me it has made a real difference.
thats good to hear. I have been a user for decades and take 10000iu in winter along with k2 mk7 and magnesium and a host of other vitamins and minerals. Look up Niacin for anxiety. I take it instead of anti depressants. so much better. go to www.doctoryourself.com and look up depression and anxiety. wonderful site. Do you also get your blood tested every year. I do and i like them over 150mmol/l
20 minutes of exposing 80% of your body in the sun, no sunblock filter, for 15 minutes , your skin will produce 10.000IU of vitamin D3 - that is the daily recommended dosis
I personally take 5,000IU a day and recent doc had a checkup with a blood test and asked them to check my vitamin D level, well I'm happy to report doc said they were awesome and right where it needs to be.

My first daughter was born in 1968 (52 years ago). At that time, when I went to the baby clinic, I was given a small dropper bottle of Vitamins A&D. This was added ( a few drops a day) to the baby formula as standard. They obviously knew 52 years ago that Vitamin D was important to us all.
All from the 70’s AD-drops were given for free to parents of children up to the age of 5 in Sweden. They have changed it now to only being Vitamin D and only for children up to the age of 2. First of all, lots of food items are today enriched with Vitamin A. Second the type of Vitamin A often used in supplements which is animalic (retinol) can cause osteoperosis, weakness of the bones which is totally contraproductive. It’s much better to get your Vitamin A from a healthy diet containing caroten (yes, the stuff from carrots).That’s the plant based Vitamin A source which does not have these adverse effects.
This has become a daily must see viewing for me since I came across it about a month ago. I have leaned so much more from your daily vlogs than I would have from mainstream media. Everybody needs to watch these. I feel so much more optimistic and informed. Thanks for all your hard work John, and the excellent way you put the information across.
He has fabricated a FAKE email from Dr. Fauci via Sweden/Finnish conman Kari Hjelt, supposedly taken 6000 IU of vitamin D per day, Most people can spot spelling errors with day, time and date (for example 3.07 should be 03:07). He has now encouraged people to take LARGE HARMFUL doses! What a shame!
I love you for addressing this topic. My wife has been diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis and has suffered permanent damage from it, but the disease has been in remission for three years since she was treated with high doses of vitamin D according to the #coimbraprotocol This substance is extremely important and no one should be deficient to prevent permanent damage.
In Holland MS isn't existing as a Chronical desease,here they give nothing,treat with nothing,and people with MS are forced to work full time! And that's disgusting!

Sir James Saville for one. Also when and if? the dust finally settles on this COVID hoax and when people's lives have been left in ruins they will be looking for the culprits who manufactured the lie!
@@andrewlilley3660, I am a republican I think no one should get knighthoods,I was joking. Doctor John is a respected physician showing the public research about COVID.
I'm a 56 yo fairly light skinned female living in northern NY state (think dark, cold and 125 inches of snow yearly :p). My doctor tests all patients annually for vitamin D levels because deficiency is so common here. My levels have typically come back at the low end of the normal range, probably because I eat eggs and fish daily, but after starting 2000 IU daily, a couple years ago (take it in the morning) my vitamin D levels have been great, and I believe I get fewer of the winter viruses that float around here....
this is go bizarre: why have you decided to take only 2,000 iu, while it's so plainly obvious that ~5,000 iu would bring your levels not to 'low end of normal', but to excellent or optimized levels. Did your doctor tell you to do that?
@@tmo.48 so did I ask you for advice? No. Why did you barge in? I guess for the same reason that I made my prior comment. You wanted to say something. Good for you. Don't try to shut people down who you don't share opinion with.
I started to take vitamin D because of coronavirus craze (I know it's serious illness but I am tired from lockdown). I take little doze as on the instruction. And I was surprised but my depression ended. I live in the north, in Siberia, and I guess vitamin D deficiency is widespread here. My mom broke her arm, her bones are easily brokebele because of vitamin D deficiency. Thanks, doctor
I'm on the same latitude (60 degrees north approximately) and vitamin D deficiency is a real threat up here in wintertime (sun rises around 9 a.m. and sets at 3 p.m in December, and is very weak in winter = no vitamin D).
Traditional diets in such northern latitudes included large intakes of liver, fatty fish, and blubber and seal meat - all high in vitamin D, Cod liver oil, eggs, and liver are good sources and cheap too. With a good amount of green leafy vegetables like cabbage, kale, and brussel sprouts, etc. You'll get vitamin K which regulates vitamin D too. My mother used to dose us with Cod Liver Oil and Vitamin C tablets for coughs and colds. Now, I understand why.
@@BigHenFor Nobody eat those traditional diets anymore, nowadays it's mostly about things you pick up from the supermarket! Tacos is a very popular dish, for example.

Thank you Dr. John, and thank you, Mrs. Campbell for your behind the scenes support. Things like Dr. John's vitamin D recommendations do get talked about. Word if mouth spreads the good information. So more people are benefitting than just those of us who are watching the videos. 😊🤗😼🌍🌎🌏🚸
I take 2000IU per day in the summer and 3000IU in Winter and have done for 10 years and have not had a cold of flu since, I also walk out every day and walk about 20 miles minimum a week. I used to suffer 1 or 2 colds per year and 1 Flu effect every couple of years, I had SARS-CoV1 back in 2003 which I caught in China town London! We need to get our blood levels up to 40ng/ml (30ng/ml minimum) and checking blood levels are best carried out in the winter months when D is low.
I tested low for Vitamin D, and started taking 2,000IU daily, and still testing low for Vitamin D. Increasing the dosage to 3,000IU helped, but I live in the Pacific northwest and there's not much sunlight. When I contracted COVID-19 I suspect one of the reasons why I survived the infection was the very fact that I had been taking the larger dose of Vitamin D. I have now increased that dosage to the findings revealed by John's tenacious research.
70ng/ml seems to be a bit high. Watch this interesting video. He knows a lot about it and even written a book about it. th-cam.com/video/v3pK0dccQ38/w-d-xo.html

Dr. John Campbell, I was just made aware of your videos by a friend. Thank you for taking the time to get this information out to the world in a manner that we can all understand. I have no doubt you are helping to save lives.
No problem John, and thank you for going out of your way to dig these things up and translating them into bite size and understandable language... It is much appreciated !
The reason they didn’t encourage mask wearing early on was because they didn’t have a good supply and needed the masks for medical folks. So of course that was completely contradictory. But instead they should have been saying immediately that masks would be helpful, but in order to save them for our medical staff- make your own.
@@theeggtimertictic1136 if you roll back the clock to March both the government and WHO didn't advise wearing masks because there was no strong science behind them being effective and lots of failed medical trials over the previous decade since SARS. The advice is changing at the same rate as the treatments, because there is a whole lot more data available.
@@nicktodd5294 If you roll the clock back to March 26th then COVID was rightly downgraded from a high consequence infectious disease By the WHO but the whole masquerade was played out anyway for no good reason!
Thank you Dr. Campbell for, as always, presenting your findings in a clear and thorough way. I trust you implicitly. You are providing an unsurpassed source of information and are much appreciated. I will continue to watch daily. Thank you once again. 🙏
Brilliant. First time watcher and appreciate your no nonsense approach. No patronising your listeners and you explain your thought process well. Compared to what comes from government announcements the public is spoken to like children while the government information given is haphazard at best and contradictory at worst.
John doesn't get paid by youtube unless people watch the entire video. That's why the videos end abruptly and that's why he always thanks his viewers for watching. I'm glad he gets paid for this and our part is just to watch the whole video
Thank you very much for your presentation of the evidence, and your interpretation of it. Your calm and rational videos are incredibly helpful in these troubled times
Great video Dr John, some very interesting developments going on, that the average person wouldn't be aware of. What should the results of a vitamin D blood test be, too be safe? Thanks for the time and effort you put in, to bring us this information.
I think this vid is the best yet on vaccination! Thanks Dr. John for your explanation. It rather reminds me of my Biology teacher Arnold Darlington, who managed to make the most arcane lecture fascinating. He broke the details down just like your. He even explained osmosis to a thirteen year old, using a school-board and sheer brilliant enthusiasm ... with chalk on carbon paint, board to board till you had three or four going along. He was a genius, and so {if I may venture a compliment] are you!!!! Thanks for your brilliant work, which is so full of natural warmth and apparent complete comprehension. Best wishes from George PS: Stay to the end? How could we not! Thanks.
Hello John I have been listening to you from the beginning and every morning I start my day with you. I am Dr Farhana Ahmed from Dhaka Bangladesh. You are always in my prayers every night when I go to sleep. Best Wishes 🙏
👍 Foods that provide vitamin D include: Fatty fish, like tuna, mackerel, and salmon. Foods fortified with vitamin D, like some dairy products, orange juice, soy milk, and cereals. Beef liver. Cheese. Egg yolks.
You are a God-send... youre keeping us well informed, and that means a lot less stress, we'll it does for me... and I love the science, you explain it so well... I feel as if im in lectures again sometimes, which I love! Thank you Dr C, yore a 🌟
Keeping you well informed won't protect any of us from the economic disaster that the lockdowns have caused, the virus was and never has been a major threat but the response to it will be! I also don't see how he can reduce stress as all he ever does is talk about the coming vaccinations it ought to frighten any clear-thinking person out of their wits
Thank you for the vaccine information. I would look at three sources before I make a personal decision on taking a vaccine. Your opinion is one of the three, Sir. You are a legend.
Respected doctor you have educated us about the use of vitamin D .I am a dark skin indian ,I have improved my blood vitamin d levels by 9 points with much higher doses from 13 to 22. THANKS. I am still taking 3000 i.u.daily 5 days a week
I take 'Caltrate 600+D3 with minerals'; D3 800 IU, Calcium 600 mg, Magnesium 50 mg, Zinc 7.5 mg, Copper 1 mg, Manganese 1.8 mg, Boron 250 mcg, as recommended by my oncologist to maintain bone health since I have been on Androgen Deprivation Therapy for over 7 years for prostate cancer. Working well according to labs and scans.
Just an FYI....Caltrate is made with calcium carbonate that is very hard to absorb in your body. Citracal is what you want to be taking. It's easily absorbable with or without food and contains all the necessary minerals except K2. But, "Jarrow's Bone-up" is the best of all the calcium supplements you can buy on the market. It's in powder form inside a capsule. Contains all the minerals (D3, K2, Boron, Copper, magnesium, etc) necessary to transfer calcium to your bones and the areas it needs to be without depositing it in soft tissues.
@@sunniva5335 'Real doctors' know very little regarding nutrition, hence why so many of them are overweight and unhealthy. I personally would not trust any doctor for nutritional advice. Also, your posts are very irritating and ill informed.
@@GlobalAdventurer due to another medical condition I need to take medication with food, so according to my very experienced oncologist, who treats mostly prostate cancer, calcium carbonate is the better choice. He follows a protocol of diet and dietary supplements with medical treatment.
Evil Grandma Evil Grandma 😂😂😂. Yes I’ve seen them combined but I think it would help if Dr John said something about it because D on its own can cause calcium deposits in blood vessels.
I take a combined tablet of 5000 iu vitamin D3 with 100 mg vit K2. Also take a combined 1000 mg Vit C with 25 mg zinc. Have done this for the last 5 years.
Cannot say how highly I respect and appreciate the real work that Dr John has done with regard to the worldwide information. Regarding the level of respect of the publishers of the information and digging out the pertinent data and any related issues. I still think he has earned a Nobel Prize for Medicine for this work.
Phase 3 in the UAE is being very well run. We have a varied population of expats here and a lot of volunteers are participating, including many of the healthcare staff where I am a hospital manager.

@@ljo642 No, number of tests can help curb people dying. A large testing capacity allows you to find more infected people quicker so they can be isolated earlier and also go under treatment earlier.

I personally take 10000ui every other day along with 100mg k2 and 150 mg magnesium. I need to get my levels tested to make sure I'm doing well as my level was 10 3 years ago and should be around 70 so I was very deficient hence the high dose.
10.000 every day? thats a way too high dose if you are a healthy person. vitamin d accumulates and such a high dosis in long term is dangerous. blood calcium will increase and and will take long to get back to normal. Daily dose shoulndt be over 4k-6k depending on body weight and age for a healthy persons over a long period of time. In germany healthy people are recommented to take 10k in one week if they have deficit. stay healthy !
@@JohnSmith-km5jw not true. Daily doses should be whatever it takes to get your levels up to optimal. You need to take vit k2 which directs calcium to your bones, plus magnesium. Plus your age, your weight, your ethnicity all play a role in how much you need. Some medicines deplete vit d. It also has a half life. The Coimbra protocol uses massive doses of Vit d for autoimmune diseases but they test all the time for problems. The bottom line is know what your level is. www.sunarc.org/ www.grassrootshealth.net/
Thank you so much in advocating for the use of vitamin D3 and the suggestion about the incidents in the vulnerable groups who are likely to catch COVID19. My hematologist friend in the Far East has explained to me a decade ago the reason why so many are vitamin D deficient - even for those living between the Tropics. In the US holistic doctors have been advocating for 5000 iu per day for a LONG time according to your age and weight. It is of course safer to have our 25(OH)D3 level checked regularly. I have mine done in the summer and winter to adjust for sun exposure etc. Our teacher Dr Norm Shealy (founder of the American Holistic Medical Association) at our institute told us about it since the beginning of this century. He even advocated the doses to cover for H1N1 exposure and we have had patients on ECMO because of the disease and we were well covered and everyone was fine. In the UK we are not so well informed ... We are all covered where we work with Vitamin D3 (I take it with vitamin K2 as advised by Dr Shealy for synergy). It's about how much we have been informed and be open-minded. Vitamin D3 is a great immuno-modulator.

I tend to be significantly Vitamin D deficient. For the last year I have been taking 5000 iu per day per doctor's orders and my recent blood level showed me right in the middle of normal. I am almost 60, have several comorbidities , have been called back to work and wear my mask everywhere. I had very, very mild case of COVID-19, likely infected at work. I know this is just one case, but I am relieved that I was not sicker. Thank you for your insight.
@@serenashaw-q3y Watch the video of Dr. Heany that I posted in my comment above. He shows that there is no toxicity (hypercalcemia) at intakes below 30,000 IU/day. That's a lot higher than the intakes he recommends or that other people have reported they're taking here. Here's the link again: th-cam.com/video/B9SNfrE7P1s/w-d-xo.html which jumps right to the study on toxicity (excess calcium levels).
THANK YOU SIR. Your information seems very factual and unbiased. I take 2000 IU Vitamin D daily but, I believe I will double that. THANK YOU SOOO MUCH for what you do and your information. I would be VERY appreciative of a short video on masking. Best type, etc.
Thank you Dr Campbell. Excellent analysis, well referenced, you encourage your viewers to make up their own minds, you clearly distinguish between peer-reviewed and early stage research, and you are not afraid to give your educated opinion in an open way. We'd love to see you rebut a certain Mr Cummins who is the complete opposite, but - worryingly - gaining a following.
"go to your doctor and get a test for vitamin d levels" Have you tried going to see a gp recently? There's no way they would let you anywhere near the gp surgery for something like a vitamin d levels test in the current pandemic situation.
I know, like I said, I'm not going to be pattering off to my busy GP, requesting to know the level of D in my blood. He's out to lunch on that suggestion - at least in a Canadian context.
I use the VA, they just send you to the lab. Then you get the dose you need. Might not need to see a doctor at all, just the referral to the lab. At least, that’s is how it works here for me. Husband private medical care, works the same way. Good luck.
@@sunniva5335 ingredients of vit d supplements: Calcium Carbonate - absolutely harmless, its dissolved in your tap water most likely Cellulose - plant fibres, harmless Maltodextrin - basically a sugar, only an issue if you are diabetic Acacia - plant, harmless Sugar - same as maltodextrin Maize Starch - plant starch - harmless Magnesium stearate - in chicken eggs walnuts etc, harmless Silicon dioxide - found naturally in human tissue Triglycerides - fats - harmless Vitamin D - produced by the body, harmless Antioxidant - DL-alpha-tocopherol - this is vitamin E harmless obviously the harmless are in cases where you use correct doses So ummmm what's bad about any of those
When I was severely deficient several year ago I was taking a much higher dose than I am taking now. I was deficient again in March I was told to take 2 50mcg a day. My level was normal last month when retested but she told me to keep taking them and we would retest again in December.
As well as taking vit D I've been spending as much time as possible at my allotment this year, it's always had a hugely positive impact on my mental & physical health & I've long suspected that was due to time outdoors, not just the exercise. As always thankyou for your videos, really hope you've had time to do your own allotment this year as well as keeping us all informed..
I've said from day 1 that the viral load must affect severity and vitamin D has an impact on this too........but what do I know I am just a bookkeeper lol.
I'm a humble ex nurse LLT but I said from day one wear a mask take vit D, vit c and zinc got ridiculed for my belief but seems me and thee were not so wrong after all .
You are certainly helping get news out on V-D! Many friends are vitamin users for hair and beauty! But my interest is health! You get beauty, if you have health!
It is just a good odd that you were right. Because in general, initial loads affect the severity, everybody knows that. However, there are many other infections, especially the slow growth, likes leprosy, malaria, or the aggressive and deadly ones, likes Ebola, cholera, tetanus, rabies, prions-infection, that the severity depends on the reaction of the immune system and the strains of the pathogen, not the initial loads (providing that they got enough number to successfully infect the hosts). Second, nobody said that vitamin D plays no role in the severity of any infection, if the patients are in deficiency, let alone COVID-19. The dispute is, at what level the medical community should agree on as adequate to support a fully functional immune system.
Conclusions: Our findings do not support a potential link between vitamin D concentrations and risk of severe COVID-19 infection and mortality. Recommendations for vitamin D supplementation to lessen COVID-19 risks may provide false reassurance. The evidence for vitamin D supplementation is plagued by the use of small, poor-quality trials. high-quality, high-level evidence for supplementation is frequently lacking. Vitamin D may prove to be a good surrogate for general well-being. www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.06.26.20140921v1
I'm a black woman in US. My doctor a few years ago prescribed 10,000 IU's vitamin D weekly. About 6 months ago I started taking that dose nightly. I still take it to this day. I also wear a mask whenever I'm in public (grocery store, gas station, etc) other than that I am home. Don't like it either but I do it for public and my safety.
Hi as a suggestion I would ask you to consider having a blood test. My own doctor put me a high dose for a few months and then redid my blood which were by then in the moderately high levels. I am now on a 3000iu dose a day which maintains good levels. 10000iu daily seems a high dose daily and as you are female it could cause problems with your bones. 10,000 may be a good dose for you however checking that it is may prevent osteoporosis later.
@@allanchapman7986 Thanks for the advice. As I have MS and I just saw another orthopedic yesterday for back issues and test results and paperwork that i received it lists all my meds and supplements I take and it reccomends that I continue to take the 10,000 IU dosage. Told me to discontinue taking beta carotene and b-50 I had been taking. So all my doctors are aware of what I'm taking, the dosage and how often. I see them quite often. Every doctors visit asks me if there are any changes in what I take. I appreciate your concern and advice though. I am getting older now and am trying to take precautions. I'll be okay. Be blessed and stay safe yourself.
Once again Dr John, you have put out a quality, well rounded video with a thorough explanation of a somewhat technical subect. Excellent information. Thank you.
Wearing face mask just like fastening seat belt while driving which reduce the impact of car accidents. However, if we need to reduce the total amount of road traffic accidents, we need to keep distance from other while driving and less traffic flow. For hand hygiene and correct cough manners, it is like keep other good habits for driving such as look left and right before changing lane, also signalling turning light to notice cars behind.
Thank you for your honest thoughts and findings. It's so difficult to find information that sounds trustworthy, but this does click right away. Yes, let's avoid information that is contaminated with politics!
The Public Health England recommendation explicitly says that the 10 micro-gram dose is sufficient for bone and muscle health. It does not say that this dose is sufficient for immune system health. I believe that this is probably because the impact of vitamin D on the immune system was recently discovered whereas the association with rickets is long standing and well accepted.
its been known for decades. If there is anything positive to have come out of this virus its the interest in Vit d. I test my levels every year and take 10000iu per day in winter along with its cofactors magnesium and vit k 2. most people eat enough calcium so dont need to take extra. www.sunarc.org/
Yes, I read through the comments to see if anyone had noted this. It is my understanding that there has not been enough research done related to IMMUNE SYSTEM and vitamin D, and thus the recommendations can't be updated yet. Meanwhile, I expect folks like Dr. Fauci have a strong hunch that it should be higher for immunity based on his general understanding. Also, I expect he works so much that he gets very little sun!
I take since years 10.000 i.U. per day ... since 3 month I raised to 15.000 i.U. .... my level in blood is around 100 ng/ml ... i feel grand and was never ill ... and if, it just lasted for a very short time (hours, but never ever cauhging or sneezing again)..... btw. I started with 20 - 30.000 i. U. per day for some weeks (years ago) .... that was about 4 yrs ago .... I take also Mg and Bor and K2-Mk7 .... A rule could be around 50 i.U. per KG bodyweight - I personally think that is too low in our climate (I am from Austria) .... btw, i was ill like everybody else in the past, 1-2 times per year with all the annoying things - sick vor 2-3 weeks .... that is over ... I am age 61 !! - never felt better in my life .... :-)
A knighthood for a fake email from Fauci? Most people can spot spelling mistakes with day, time and date (for example 3.07 should be 03:07). Instead he has now encouraged people to take LARGE HARMFUL doses! What a shame!
thats the thing 😂 people think you need to be a doctor to understand basic things about the human body and how immunity works of course, credible sources matter. but when half the medical and pharma industry is driven by profit and business, a lot of them spew bullshit medicine is really not difficult at all to understand. you just need to be able to read!
Good Morning Dr. Campbell, I hope all is well with you and your family as always. Where do you go from here?...Further! Vitamin D3 and science is so revealing. Let's see. You've done an an outstanding job... THANK You FOR EVERYTHING! Concerned Global Citizen,
But long before that, they were often deliberately inoculated with matter from the spots of smallpox sufferers. Variolation= deliberately inoculating with variola (smallpox); vaccination= deliberate inoculation with vaccinia (cow pox). I think variolation was done up to a hundred years before vaccination, but cowpox turned out to be safer as cowpox was normally mild and not disfiguring. I think Edward Jenner, who introduced vaccination, must have had an "eye for the girls", as it was his observation that milkmaids always had unblemished skin, where so many others had pockmarked complexions, that drove him to his discovery of the cross-immunity. I am not sure he necessarily understood how it worked, but it did.
Great work! Dr John Campbell, my girlfriend has been diagnosed with covid 19 and I am waiting for my test results, we have decided to take vitamin D to boost our immune systems during this process. I will be taking 2800 IU maybe more not sure at this point, as well trying to sit on my balcony during mid day. I really appreciate the work you have done during this pandemic, you are definitely helping people. All the best in the UK, I'm here in Vancouver BC were cases are rising like most places in the world. All the best.
People would say that's just plain stupid but think about it people. If YOU had no access to news, would YOU know there was a pandemic based on the number of people you know who have been ill. For me the answer would be a resounding NO.
@@essanjay8604 absolutely not. I dont know a single person who is sick. All i see is sheep walking around in masks, and shuttered businesses. Ive seen common cold/flu outbreaks in any given year that put "covid" to shame. Years where damn near everyone I know got sick. If it wasn't for the news, nobody would know. Guaranteed.
I get it's a joke, but there is some truth in it, even though it's not what you think! They work outside all day (vitamin D) and don't come into contact with the general population all that often. The TV thing is just correlation, not causation.
If we are going to discuss IU's of D intake well then I am taking 50 thousand of ius a day. Sometimes every other day. Same case with my mother and father. I have also added k2 supplement of 1250 mcg per pill a day. I would like to add also a 1 liter of raw organic milk a day which I haven't done yet to really start the bone-teeth remineralisation process. While 50k of vitamin D sounds much (and it is) my mother has been chronically deficient on this vitamin for decades with years ago having a blood vitamin D level of 8 ng. Under 30 it is already considered deficient. Long term high dosage of D is not advised without supplementation of k2 because of hypercalcemia (too much calcium in the blood) k2 takes care of them by mobilizing the k2 into bones and teeth rather then the soft tissues and organs.
dear person if you drink raw cows milk,you donot need to take vit d or k2 ,raw cows milk contains the vit d sulphate and k2,thers only 2 products in the world that have that raw cows milk and cod liver oil caps they dont have k2 ,you also need n.a.c. its an amino cid that raises the glutathione levels up safely ,you cant raise vit d levels with low glutathione levels its critical you raise them for your mum with n.a.c.
People who are overweight or have a belly have insulin resistance (diabetic or prediabetic) means that absorption is difficult with vitamin D or any vitamins for that matter. Melanin in the skin also plays a role. The more inherently darker your skin is the more you need to be outside. There's an NIH study on this skin color issue. Dr Berg mentions insulin resistance and vitamin absorption. Most people in the US are prediabetic and don't even know it.

Thanks for your honesty. You have gained my trust. You never pretend to know more than you do, you never pretend to have all the answers.

Rather Deficiency treating (therapeutic) doses vs Maintenance Doses. I has a health MOT and was advised I was deficient in Vitamin D. I was prescribed a short course of 10,000 IU (therapeutic dose) of Vitamin D3 for 10 days to bring my blood levels upto normal, and told to take vitamin D3 1000 IU daily (maintenance dose) daily after that.
Confirm. I am taking vit D 5000 IU plus 25mg of oragnic Zinc and one gram of vit C daily for more than a year. I have not had even cold since than. Before I got sick twice a year with respiratory illness.
I have multiple sclerosis, diagnosed 2011 aged now 67, pretty much been on 4000-5000 i.u. daily from 2011. Progression thankfully has been relatively slow to date, hopefully this continues. My new MS consultant recommend 4000 i.u. only last month and was impressed that I’d been taking Vitamin D for the past 9 years.
My vitamin D journey this spring. Initially tested in Feb 2020 and level was 37, supposed to be above 75. Was put on 3000iu daily and a 10 week weekly does of 50,000iu. In June retested and level came back at 135. Very good result in 4 months. Didn't feel any adverse affect with the high doses. Was then told to continue on the 3000iu a day. This all started pre covid so I was lucky to get that taken care of when I did. Best advice is to get your doctor to test your vitamin D level and go from there.
i have cheap 20.000iu tabs. cheap at ebay or amazon. every two to three days. but for me. gut health is a thing that i am also focus. sometimes when i mess up my gut with 6 or more beer, i take glutamine - great stuff to keep the gut happy and avoid food cravings.
Thnx. RN here. 66 yo. Euro. Raised near Canada border. Started out at very low D3. Have slipped into osteo arthritis. Now taking 50,000 IU D3 per week per Rx. Recent lab up to 41...this took three years. Happy with this. Keep vigilant. ❤
I personnally have been taking 6000 IU of Vitamin D since I begun listening to you Dr. John. The results are nothing short of remarkable. First of all my immunity is working much better, my low level inflammation has basically vanished, and my muscles feel much more flexible. But the biggest difference is with my mental health as I find it much easier to relax and letting go of my anxiety. Of course I know that this is anecdotal evidence, but for me it has made a real difference.
God Bless!
No it’s true it will help with anxiety and depression. Magnesium also is great for anxiety/depression etc
thats good to hear. I have been a user for decades and take 10000iu in winter along with k2 mk7 and magnesium and a host of other vitamins and minerals. Look up Niacin for anxiety. I take it instead of anti depressants. so much better. go to www.doctoryourself.com and look up depression and anxiety. wonderful site. Do you also get your blood tested every year. I do and i like them over 150mmol/l
20 minutes of exposing 80% of your body in the sun, no sunblock filter, for 15 minutes , your skin will produce 10.000IU of vitamin D3 - that is the daily recommended dosis
I take 6000 IUs for 2 years now (level stays at about 60 ng/ml/90kg bodyweight)
I personally take 5,000IU a day and recent doc had a checkup with a blood test and asked them to check my vitamin D level, well I'm happy to report doc said they were awesome and right where it needs to be.

My first daughter was born in 1968 (52 years ago). At that time, when I went to the baby clinic, I was given a small dropper bottle of Vitamins A&D. This was added ( a few drops a day) to the baby formula as standard. They obviously knew 52 years ago that Vitamin D was important to us all.
Yes, but only about the rickets side of things.
Breastmilk does not contain vitamin d and so babies are recomended to supplement..
All from the 70’s AD-drops were given for free to parents of children up to the age of 5 in Sweden. They have changed it now to only being Vitamin D and only for children up to the age of 2.
First of all, lots of food items are today enriched with Vitamin A. Second the type of Vitamin A often used in supplements which is animalic (retinol) can cause osteoperosis, weakness of the bones which is totally contraproductive.
It’s much better to get your Vitamin A from a healthy diet containing caroten (yes, the stuff from carrots).That’s the plant based Vitamin A source which does not have these adverse effects.
@@tamifinnigan4661 That doesn't make sense to me ... how would they have gotten it throughout evolution?
Vitamin A and D are antagonists. It doesn't make any sense to take a combo.

I love you for addressing this topic.

I'm a 56 yo fairly light skinned female living in northern NY state (think dark, cold and 125 inches of snow yearly :p). My doctor tests all patients annually for vitamin D levels because deficiency is so common here. My levels have typically come back at the low end of the normal range, probably because I eat eggs and fish daily, but after starting 2000 IU daily, a couple years ago (take it in the morning) my vitamin D levels have been great, and I believe I get fewer of the winter viruses that float around here....
God Bless!
this is go bizarre: why have you decided to take only 2,000 iu, while it's so plainly obvious that ~5,000 iu would bring your levels not to 'low end of normal', but to excellent or optimized levels. Did your doctor tell you to do that?

I started to take vitamin D because of coronavirus craze (I know it's serious illness but I am tired from lockdown). I take little doze as on the instruction. And I was surprised but my depression ended. I live in the north, in Siberia, and I guess vitamin D deficiency is widespread here. My mom broke her arm, her bones are easily brokebele because of vitamin D deficiency. Thanks, doctor
I'm on the same latitude (60 degrees north approximately) and vitamin D deficiency is a real threat up here in wintertime (sun rises around 9 a.m. and sets at 3 p.m in December, and is very weak in winter = no vitamin D).
Traditional diets in such northern latitudes included large intakes of liver, fatty fish, and blubber and seal meat - all high in vitamin D, Cod liver oil, eggs, and liver are good sources and cheap too. With a good amount of green leafy vegetables like cabbage, kale, and brussel sprouts, etc. You'll get vitamin K which regulates vitamin D too. My mother used to dose us with Cod Liver Oil and Vitamin C tablets for coughs and colds. Now, I understand why.
Vitamin D and C are what you need
@@BigHenFor Nobody eat those traditional diets anymore, nowadays it's mostly about things you pick up from the supermarket! Tacos is a very popular dish, for example.

I take 2000IU per day in the summer and 3000IU in Winter and have done for 10 years and have not had a cold of flu since, I also walk out every day and walk about 20 miles minimum a week.
I used to suffer 1 or 2 colds per year and 1 Flu effect every couple of years, I had SARS-CoV1 back in 2003 which I caught in China town London!
We need to get our blood levels up to 40ng/ml (30ng/ml minimum) and checking blood levels are best carried out in the winter months when D is low.
How do you take Vit D? Orally? Ive seen in that way one wouldd have to take lots of capsules.
I've taken it for years but have still had colds because I have young grandchildren LOL!
@@luiggidecaro1621 You can get 3000IU or 4000IU in a single capsule fairly easily.
Well My one a day doesn’t even cover that 5uq is about 100, but I rely on cornflakes and rice Krispes and the sun. ☺️
I tested low for Vitamin D, and started taking 2,000IU daily, and still testing low for Vitamin D. Increasing the dosage to 3,000IU helped, but I live in the Pacific northwest and there's not much sunlight. When I contracted COVID-19 I suspect one of the reasons why I survived the infection was the very fact that I had been taking the larger dose of Vitamin D. I have now increased that dosage to the findings revealed by John's tenacious research.
I've been taking 5000-10000 per day for 10 years. My level is typically ~70ng/ml, and I'm over 65.
70ng/ml seems to be a bit high.

The reason they didn’t encourage mask wearing early on was because they didn’t have a good supply and needed the masks for medical folks. So of course that was completely contradictory. But instead they should have been saying immediately that masks would be helpful, but in order to save them for our medical staff- make your own.
In reality, what they said was nothing short of a lie.
I totally agree ... they have totally undermined trust and made a very bad decision.
@@theeggtimertictic1136 if you roll back the clock to March both the government and WHO didn't advise wearing masks because there was no strong science behind them being effective and lots of failed medical trials over the previous decade since SARS.

I personally take 10000ui every other day along with 100mg k2 and 150 mg magnesium. I need to get my levels tested to make sure I'm doing well as my level was 10 3 years ago and should be around 70 so I was very deficient hence the high dose.
I take 10000 IUs every day with 2000mcgsof K2
10.000 every day? thats a way too high dose if you are a healthy person. vitamin d accumulates and such a high dosis in long term is dangerous. blood calcium will increase and and will take long to get back to normal. Daily dose shoulndt be over 4k-6k depending on body weight and age for a healthy persons over a long period of time. In germany healthy people are recommented to take 10k in one week if they have deficit. stay healthy !
high dosis is up to 40.000 IU
R G get your calcium levels checked just incase it’s too high. Get ya d levels checked too. That’s a very high dose
@@JohnSmith-km5jw not true. Daily doses should be whatever it takes to get your levels up to optimal. You need to take vit k2 which directs calcium to your bones, plus magnesium. Plus your age, your weight, your ethnicity all play a role in how much you need. Some medicines deplete vit d. It also has a half life. The Coimbra protocol uses massive doses of Vit d for autoimmune diseases but they test all the time for problems. The bottom line is know what your level is. www.sunarc.org/ www.grassrootshealth.net/
Thank you so much in advocating for the use of vitamin D3 and the suggestion about the incidents in the vulnerable groups who are likely to catch COVID19. My hematologist friend in the Far East has explained to me a decade ago the reason why so many are vitamin D deficient - even for those living between the Tropics. In the US holistic doctors have been advocating for 5000 iu per day for a LONG time according to your age and weight. It is of course safer to have our 25(OH)D3 level checked regularly. I have mine done in the summer and winter to adjust for sun exposure etc. Our teacher Dr Norm Shealy (founder of the American Holistic Medical Association) at our institute told us about it since the beginning of this century. He even advocated the doses to cover for H1N1 exposure and we have had patients on ECMO because of the disease and we were well covered and everyone was fine. In the UK we are not so well informed ... We are all covered where we work with Vitamin D3 (I take it with vitamin K2 as advised by Dr Shealy for synergy). It's about how much we have been informed and be open-minded. Vitamin D3 is a great immuno-modulator.

I think it has to be 30-40 thousand iu's a day or higher
@@serenashaw-q3y Watch the video of Dr. Heany that I posted in my comment above. He shows that there is no toxicity (hypercalcemia) at intakes below 30,000 IU/day. That's a lot higher than the intakes he recommends or that other people have reported they're taking here. Here's the link again: th-cam.com/video/B9SNfrE7P1s/w-d-xo.html which jumps right to the study on toxicity (excess calcium levels).
10,000 is a bit on the high end
THANK YOU SIR. Your information seems very factual and unbiased. I take 2000 IU Vitamin D daily but, I believe I will double that. THANK YOU SOOO MUCH for what you do and your information. I would be VERY appreciative of a short video on masking. Best type, etc.
Thank you Dr Campbell. Excellent analysis, well referenced, you encourage your viewers to make up their own minds, you clearly distinguish between peer-reviewed and early stage research, and you are not afraid to give your educated opinion in an open way.
We'd love to see you rebut a certain Mr Cummins who is the complete opposite, but - worryingly - gaining a following.
"go to your doctor and get a test for vitamin d levels"
Have you tried going to see a gp recently? There's no way they would let you anywhere near the gp surgery for something like a vitamin d levels test in the current pandemic situation.
Very true!
I know, like I said, I'm not going to be pattering off to my busy GP, requesting to know the level of D in my blood. He's out to lunch on that suggestion - at least in a Canadian context.
I just got mine tested. It was 41 ng/ml and I take about 2000 iu/day. I'm in the US and had to get a blood test for multiple things.
I use the VA, they just send you to the lab. Then you get the dose you need. Might not need to see a doctor at all, just the referral to the lab. At least, that’s is how it works here for me. Husband private medical care, works the same way. Good luck.
True. It would take 6 weeks for a routine appointment before this even started!
Vitamin D is king! Thank you for continuing to stress the importance of this vitamin. I also try to get about 15 mins of 🌞 daily. Feels great✌️
The guidelines were established ages ago, with the aim of avoiding deficiency conditions like rickets.
Yes,and they are the Minimum for a healthy person, before electronics gadgets kept them indoors and sedentary.

I went for my vitamin D test today, can't wait to hear the answer. In the meantime I'm taking 2000 iu @ day.
Thank you, Dr John. Fascinating info.
I take 6000 IU of vitamin D per day, my wife takes 3000 IU per day, we are both in our late 50's. We both work overnight and don't get any sunlight.

When I was severely deficient several year ago I was taking a much higher dose than I am taking now. I was deficient again in March I was told to take 2 50mcg a day. My level was normal last month when retested but she told me to keep taking them and we would retest again in December.
Thank you! I also saw you on DW tv, good to see the news picking up your reporting.
As well as taking vit D I've been spending as much time as possible at my allotment this year, it's always had a hugely positive impact on my mental & physical health & I've long suspected that was due to time outdoors, not just the exercise. As always thankyou for your videos, really hope you've had time to do your own allotment this year as well as keeping us all informed..
I've taken 6000-8000 for Hashimoto's. my vit d was very low 18--Hashimotos causes low vit d
I've said from day 1 that the viral load must affect severity and vitamin D has an impact on this too........but what do I know I am just a bookkeeper lol.
I'm a humble ex nurse LLT but I said from day one wear a mask take vit D, vit c and zinc got ridiculed for my belief but seems me and thee were not so wrong after all .
You are certainly helping get news out on V-D! Many friends are vitamin users for hair and beauty! But my interest is health! You get beauty, if you have health!
Let’s bet the Chinese have had a cure if they did this on purpose! You know their philosophy regarding people they do not like!
It is just a good odd that you were right.
Because in general, initial loads affect the severity, everybody knows that. However, there are many other infections, especially the slow growth, likes leprosy, malaria, or the aggressive and deadly ones, likes Ebola, cholera, tetanus, rabies, prions-infection, that the severity depends on the reaction of the immune system and the strains of the pathogen, not the initial loads (providing that they got enough number to successfully infect the hosts).
Second, nobody said that vitamin D plays no role in the severity of any infection, if the patients are in deficiency, let alone COVID-19. The dispute is, at what level the medical community should agree on as adequate to support a fully functional immune system.
Conclusions: Our findings do not support a potential link between vitamin D concentrations and risk of severe COVID-19 infection and mortality.
Recommendations for vitamin D supplementation to lessen COVID-19 risks may provide false reassurance.
The evidence for vitamin D supplementation is plagued by the use of small, poor-quality trials.
high-quality, high-level evidence for supplementation is frequently lacking. Vitamin D may prove to be a good surrogate for general well-being.

I take 3000 iu daily. Stay well everyone
If only it was that simple
@@G5Ckxew yes, if only.
And you.
@@G5Ckxew
Indications are, it is.
I take 3000iu a day also that keeps my Vitamin D levels in the moderate/high range. I did reduce the dose but my levels went down.
I'm a black woman in US. My doctor a few years ago prescribed 10,000 IU's vitamin D weekly. About 6 months ago I started taking that dose nightly. I still take it to this day. I also wear a mask whenever I'm in public (grocery store, gas station, etc) other than that I am home. Don't like it either but I do it for public and my safety.
Hi as a suggestion I would ask you to consider having a blood test. My own doctor put me a high dose for a few months and then redid my blood which were by then in the moderately high levels. I am now on a 3000iu dose a day which maintains good levels. 10000iu daily seems a high dose daily and as you are female it could cause problems with your bones. 10,000 may be a good dose for you however checking that it is may prevent osteoporosis later.
@@allanchapman7986 Thanks for the advice. As I have MS and I just saw another orthopedic yesterday for back issues and test results and paperwork that i received it lists all my meds and supplements I take and it reccomends that I continue to take the 10,000 IU dosage. Told me to discontinue taking beta carotene and b-50 I had been taking. So all my doctors are aware of what I'm taking, the dosage and how often. I see them quite often. Every doctors visit asks me if there are any changes in what I take. I appreciate your concern and advice though. I am getting older now and am trying to take precautions. I'll be okay.
Be blessed and stay safe yourself.
Once again Dr John, you have put out a quality, well rounded video with a thorough explanation of a somewhat technical subect. Excellent information. Thank you.

@@ms-jl6dl Thank you for your valuable advice.

Wearing face mask just like fastening seat belt while driving which reduce the impact of car accidents. However, if we need to reduce the total amount of road traffic accidents, we need to keep distance from other while driving and less traffic flow. For hand hygiene and correct cough manners, it is like keep other good habits for driving such as look left and right before changing lane, also signalling turning light to notice cars behind.
Well said. Just think if everyone did as advised wed have this under control in no time.
Do I have to keep washing my car?
After wearing a mask for a few hours I get a tickly cough. I'm sure it's not healthy. Seems to dry everything up!

@@rijamor if you like, no one cares.
This is sooo good to listen to when in bed... Such peaceful voice... zzzzzzz....
I feel asleep to it, not meaning to by any means. May re-watch later to get info.
Thank you Dr. John for making things understandable. Much appreciated.👵💌👍
Thank you for your honest thoughts and findings. It's so difficult to find information that sounds trustworthy, but this does click right away. Yes, let's avoid information that is contaminated with politics!
The Public Health England recommendation explicitly says that the 10 micro-gram dose is sufficient for bone and muscle health. It does not say that this dose is sufficient for immune system health. I believe that this is probably because the impact of vitamin D on the immune system was recently discovered whereas the association with rickets is long standing and well accepted.
No excuse not to have updated the information, especially now.
Christine P agreed
its been known for decades. If there is anything positive to have come out of this virus its the interest in Vit d. I test my levels every year and take 10000iu per day in winter along with its cofactors magnesium and vit k 2. most people eat enough calcium so dont need to take extra. www.sunarc.org/
Yes, I read through the comments to see if anyone had noted this. It is my understanding that there has not been enough research done related to IMMUNE SYSTEM and vitamin D, and thus the recommendations can't be updated yet. Meanwhile, I expect folks like Dr. Fauci have a strong hunch that it should be higher for immunity based on his general understanding. Also, I expect he works so much that he gets very little sun!
@@cherylmcduff5388 Vitamin A is another cofactor.
I take since years 10.000 i.U. per day ... since 3 month I raised to 15.000 i.U. .... my level in blood is around 100 ng/ml ... i feel grand and was never ill ... and if, it just lasted for a very short time (hours, but never ever cauhging or sneezing again)..... btw. I started with 20 - 30.000 i. U. per day for some weeks (years ago) .... that was about 4 yrs ago .... I take also Mg and Bor and K2-Mk7 .... A rule could be around 50 i.U. per KG bodyweight - I personally think that is too low in our climate (I am from Austria) .... btw, i was ill like everybody else in the past, 1-2 times per year with all the annoying things - sick vor 2-3 weeks .... that is over ... I am age 61 !! - never felt better in my life .... :-)

Glad to hear you feel great!
DR John should get a knighthood for all his hard work and help to the public during this pandemic.
A knighthood for a fake email from Fauci? Most people can spot spelling mistakes with day, time and date
(for example 3.07 should be 03:07).
Instead he has now encouraged people to take LARGE HARMFUL doses! What a shame!
I’ve been taking vitamin D and telling others to for months and I’m no doctor. Oh, but you guys are so smart.
thats the thing 😂 people think you need to be a doctor to understand basic things about the human body and how immunity works
of course, credible sources matter. but when half the medical and pharma industry is driven by profit and business, a lot of them spew bullshit
medicine is really not difficult at all to understand. you just need to be able to read!
Good Morning Dr. Campbell,
I hope all is well with you and your family as always.
Where do you go from here?...Further! Vitamin D3 and science is so revealing. Let's see.
You've done an an outstanding job... THANK You FOR EVERYTHING!
Concerned Global Citizen,
John, people were infected with cow pox, which made them immu e to small pox. Love you work! Carry on.
But long before that, they were often deliberately inoculated with matter from the spots of smallpox sufferers. Variolation= deliberately inoculating with variola (smallpox); vaccination= deliberate inoculation with vaccinia (cow pox). I think variolation was done up to a hundred years before vaccination, but cowpox turned out to be safer as cowpox was normally mild and not disfiguring. I think Edward Jenner, who introduced vaccination, must have had an "eye for the girls", as it was his observation that milkmaids always had unblemished skin, where so many others had pockmarked complexions, that drove him to his discovery of the cross-immunity. I am not sure he necessarily understood how it worked, but it did.
"Winter is coming" best delivered line in the video 😂
I started taking 2500 mg Vitamin C, 5000 IU Vitamin D3, and 23 mg of Zinc about 2 months ago.
Great work! Dr John Campbell, my girlfriend has been diagnosed with covid 19 and I am waiting for my test results, we have decided to take vitamin D to boost our immune systems during this process. I will be taking 2800 IU maybe more not sure at this point, as well trying to sit on my balcony during mid day. I really appreciate the work you have done during this pandemic, you are definitely helping people. All the best in the UK, I'm here in Vancouver BC were cases are rising like most places in the world. All the best.
Thank you, Dr. Campbell, as always, for your very clear and valuable reporting.
*reporter: how is your community not effected by covid?*
*Amish man: we dont watch television*
People would say that's just plain stupid but think about it people. If YOU had no access to news, would YOU know there was a pandemic based on the number of people you know who have been ill. For me the answer would be a resounding NO.
@@essanjay8604 absolutely not. I dont know a single person who is sick. All i see is sheep walking around in masks, and shuttered businesses. Ive seen common cold/flu outbreaks in any given year that put "covid" to shame. Years where damn near everyone I know got sick. If it wasn't for the news, nobody would know. Guaranteed.
I get it's a joke, but there is some truth in it, even though it's not what you think! They work outside all day (vitamin D) and don't come into contact with the general population all that often. The TV thing is just correlation, not causation.
My insurance lapsed back in the spring and LabCorp billed me $1400 for a vitamin D test. Medicare for all.
I paid about $200 in the UK for private blood tests - 45 blood markers tested for and a detailed doctors report on the results.
Not sure where you are but here in Arizona it is $45 to have a test done without a doctors note or insurance via labcorp and Sonora quest
Refuse to pay.
@@nicoledburns82
Seems as though somebody got screwed?
@@rogerstarkey5390 I dont know where they live but it should not cost that much for vitamin d testing.
If we are going to discuss IU's of D intake well then I am taking 50 thousand of ius a day. Sometimes every other day. Same case with my mother and father. I have also added k2 supplement of 1250 mcg per pill a day. I would like to add also a 1 liter of raw organic milk a day which I haven't done yet to really start the bone-teeth remineralisation process. While 50k of vitamin D sounds much (and it is) my mother has been chronically deficient on this vitamin for decades with years ago having a blood vitamin D level of 8 ng. Under 30 it is already considered deficient. Long term high dosage of D is not advised without supplementation of k2 because of hypercalcemia (too much calcium in the blood) k2 takes care of them by mobilizing the k2 into bones and teeth rather then the soft tissues and organs.
That's why K² is in many of the better multivitamin formulas.
I just asked this question i hope he touches on the K2 added supplement as I was told this to stop the vit D clogging arteries
dear person if you drink raw cows milk,you donot need to take vit d or k2 ,raw cows milk contains the vit d sulphate and k2,thers only 2 products in the world that have that raw cows milk and cod liver oil caps they dont have k2 ,you also need n.a.c. its an amino cid that raises the glutathione levels up safely ,you cant raise vit d levels with low glutathione levels its critical you raise them for your mum with n.a.c.
People who are overweight or have a belly have insulin resistance (diabetic or prediabetic) means that absorption is difficult with vitamin D or any vitamins for that matter. Melanin in the skin also plays a role. The more inherently darker your skin is the more you need to be outside. There's an NIH study on this skin color issue. Dr Berg mentions insulin resistance and vitamin absorption.
Most people in the US are prediabetic and don't even know it.
@@katherinebrady6296 you need to boost immunity ,i have put the method for boosting immunity all over dr campbels videos ,you have low glutathione levels,you cant raise or absorb vit and mins with low glutathione ,its absolutely critical to raise the glutathione levels for you
Fabulous video! Finally someone producing videos purely to inform. Well done sir.
The mask games in the beginning decreased trust, I believe. Mothers intuited in March, and sold out thread, material and elastic to make home-made ones.The WHO was LAST to admit they helped. Thanks for your honesty. You have gained my trust. You never pretend to know more than you do, you never pretend to have all the answers.
No, last to admit is Dr Theresa Tam, Canada's Chief Medical Officer. She still insists it protects others but not you, but does suggest wearing them when you cannot keep 2 metre distance 🙄
Great science lesson😘very interesting data and info, glad to know masks really do help, shame not everyone wearing them. Thankyou John, much appreciated as always 🌸😊xxxxxx
Dr Campbell could You please explain the difference between Supplementary ' 'v' Therapeutic doses.
Rather Deficiency treating (therapeutic) doses vs Maintenance Doses. I has a health MOT and was advised I was deficient in Vitamin D. I was prescribed a short course of 10,000 IU (therapeutic dose) of Vitamin D3 for 10 days to bring my blood levels upto normal, and told to take vitamin D3 1000 IU daily (maintenance dose) daily after that.
Confirm. I am taking vit D 5000 IU plus 25mg of oragnic Zinc and one gram of vit C daily for more than a year. I have not had even cold since than. Before I got sick twice a year with respiratory illness.
I have multiple sclerosis, diagnosed 2011 aged now 67, pretty much been on 4000-5000 i.u. daily from 2011. Progression thankfully has been relatively slow to date, hopefully this continues. My new MS consultant recommend 4000 i.u. only last month and was impressed that I’d been taking Vitamin D for the past 9 years.
My vitamin D journey this spring. Initially tested in Feb 2020 and level was 37, supposed to be above 75. Was put on 3000iu daily and a 10 week weekly does of 50,000iu. In June retested and level came back at 135. Very good result in 4 months. Didn't feel any adverse affect with the high doses. Was then told to continue on the 3000iu a day. This all started pre covid so I was lucky to get that taken care of when I did. Best advice is to get your doctor to test your vitamin D level and go from there.
“You are welcome to today’s video” Oh thank you!
“Thank you for coming back” Of course, wait how’d he know?
Wow. There may be a rush on 5000 iu Vitamin D.
I bought a year's supply for $12 a few days ago. A dollar a month, have to be crazy to not take it.
i have cheap 20.000iu tabs. cheap at ebay or amazon. every two to three days.
but for me. gut health is a thing that i am also focus. sometimes when i mess up my gut with 6 or more beer, i take glutamine - great stuff to keep the gut happy and avoid food cravings.
We said that half a year ago. :D
Shelves are still stacked with Vitamin D...more for me!
@@MassGainingGuy There's no run on vitamins since the media doesn't consider that medicine 😂
Never let the state look after your health
Dr. Campbell,
Here is my recommendation:

Dark skin 2x2000 mg /day
