Vitamin D doses

Finally, we see a vitamin D study where enough vitamin D3 was given to make a healthy difference and show no adverse effects. I am 76 years old and I have been doing a D3 study on myself for the past 10 years. I am a white male. I am 6' 2" tall and when I started this study in 2013, I weighed approximately 257 lbs and my vitamin D level was 14 ng/ml. I took 50,000 iu of D3 daily for 3 weeks to raise my D level and then cut back to 20,000 or 30,000 iu a day. I felt much better almost immediately. After a few months my D level tested in the 70s. I continued to take the 20K to 30k iu daily thereafter and I felt fantastic. A few years later, I learned the importance of taking vitamin K2 and magnesium with the D3 and I continued with that daily. Here are some of the health issues I had for decades before starting this study: chronic back pain, chronic depression, chronic fatigue, brain fog, very frequent infections of the ear, nose, throat, and lungs, joint pain with arthritis, fever blisters, numbness in the soles of my feet, ringing in my ears, and etc. And, I was diagnosed with non-hodgkin's lymphoma in 2009. I was given 3 rounds of chemo between 2009 and 2013. My hematologist at the time never mentioned my low vitamin D status during this time even though it was on all of my lab reports. In fact, he repeatedly told me that there was nothing that I could do on my own to fight the lymphoma. He gave me about five years to live. Thank God I did not believe him and started researching lymphoma on my own. So, after 10 years of this self study and keeping my vitamin D level in the 110 to 150+ ng/ml range, here are the results: ALL of my previous health issues have disappeared and I feel healthier and stronger than I did when I was 50 years old. In the past 10 years, I have had only two mild colds and one very mild case of Covid. I see a different hematologist now, but there have been no signs or symptoms of lymphoma in the past 3 years.

Covid put the world in a collective psychiatric institution. This study is spot on. Thank you for everything, more than words can say.

My girl lost 2 babies in miscarriages because of a deficiency in vitamin D3. They gave her shots of 50,000 every few days to get her back up to normal before her and her husband tried again. She went on to have 2 wonderful normal pregnancies.

This is what a healer looks like vs a corporate doc

I was diagnosed 15 years ago, stage 3 ovarian cancer. My vitamin D level at that time was 6. I was fortunate to have a naturopath oncologist who immediately put me on 50,000 iu vitamin D until my level went up to 50 range. Then I went to 10,000 vitamin D daily after that. I have faithfully taken at least 5,000 iu of Vitamin D for all these years. I do have a genetic disposition to hold on to calcium so my calcium levels did go above the 11 range. But I'm doing well, I'm active, I'm alive! Thank you, Dr. Campbell for sharing this important information!

I'm white skinned and been living in a tropical country for 18 years. Get a lot of sun + 5.000 IU per day. Since moving here almost all my allergies have disappeared. Can't remember when I last had a real cold or and upset stomach despite eating marked food on a daily basis. Sun and vitamin D definitely play a role for good health.

I can’t thank you enough for your continued commitment in making this vital research accessible to a lay person, such as myself - someone who would otherwise be none the wiser about its key messages and potentially life-changing effects. I hope you recognise the great service you perform in sharing these invaluable posts. Once again, my sincere thanks.

Love this man! My son had to fight with the docs to order his son a vitamin D test. He's 17 and was suffering from depression and is a person of color The doc said oh, he doesn't need it, he's young and strong. Well, on getting the test his was a low "17" - wow! Then the doc prescribed a vitamin D and brushed it off as nothing serious since his other bloodwork was normal - huh???? Parents, especially people of color - get your children tested too!

Protect this man, he's a national treasure. DR. JOHN needs to be the head of the WHO!!! Imagine if we could make that a thing.

Thank you for this video!!!!! I have been struggling with vitamin D deficiency since I had open-heart surgery quite a few years ago. When I finally discovered that this deficiency was a source of many of my post-surgery health struggles I began taking 4000IU per day. I shared my findings with my GP and all he could say was “be careful with such a high dose like that! You might get liver damage.” However, if I dropped below 4000IU per day, I would have massive hair loss, indicating I was deficient. I did my own searching of scientific journals to find that the dose I was taking was safe long term. I still struggle every winter to keep my vitamin D levels up and I’m always worried about the dosage. Your video has given me renewed confidence in my vitamin D dosage. I even feel like I will probably benefit from an increased dose. Thank you for shining a light on this common and life-affecting health situation and for doing so with such a non-biased, scientifically based method!

Deep gratitude to you John for your work in promoting evidence based medicine. No doubt your work is saving lives. Much respect to you. 🙏🏻

I worked with a physician years ago who was pushing her patients into larger doses of vitamin D, her recommended levels were higher than other providers, we had an extremely healthy patient load! We also did a lot of alternative medicine/treatments, less pharmaceuticals unless needed. Our patients were physicians, nurses, chiropractors, professionals, and many Amish as well as the usual family practice patients. We did more health education than script writing!

I’ve been taking 10,000 IU/daily for years. No problems whatsoever and my blood calcium levels are fine. Since the beginning of the pandemic, I’ve had my whole family supplement with Vit D. This video reassures me that my decision to take 10,000 IU/daily is a good one.

John, you are what the NHS should be. Many thanks for all your efforts. So appreciated

Without reading comments below I will tell you why medical experts are not recommending higher vitamin D dosages. Vitamin D is cheap. No money to be made. Sick people's costs are high. Much money to be made. There is the answer. Sad, but true.

I am a 60 year old white male I take 10,000 UI per day most of the time. I am 100% certain that it has helped my depression and my mood, and helps me to be more positive…. Also I have heard from nutritionist that women that are postpartum can take 20,000 UI a day for as long as three months if I’m not mistaken! It is very sad that such a cheap product can help so many people and yet we’ve been lied to about the dosage just like all the other vitamins…… people please wake up 😊😊😊😊😊😊

We began taking increased doses of Vitamin D early in 2020. I ran across a video of a dr passionately explaining the protection and immunity benefits and I was convinced. We have remained healthy through the past three years and counting. Thank you for continuing to enlighten and educate us, Dr Campbell!

I love this man! The information and the covert humor/sarcasm hit just the right note! Very informative. ❤

In June Spain updated its vitamin D levels on blood tests. From what the chemist said when I picked up my husband's vit D supplement a lot of extra people have already been prescribed it. It's good to see a health service noting the research and taking action.
