Default Stop the Presses! You Need to Watch this U of CA video.

Now I am not going to ask you to invest 29 minutes of your time to see what you think of it. This is something that everyone needs to watch learn. If anyone disagrees with anything in this video then speak up but I do not think that will happen. This is a U of CA educational video. This video will greatly reduce the number of people getting cancer.

The video is to teach that the levels of vitamin D that are suggested is enough for you to avoid rickets and bone density problems. But it is not nearly enough to prevent you from getting cancer and to prevent the flu that appears to be very fluid. Flu is short for influenza since it is caused by the influence of the stars (astrology).

It explains how much vitamin D that you need to get. Also cod liver oil has a lot of it but explains why the vitamin A in it limits your vitamin D from it. Note-- stop the presses is an old expression for stopping the newspaper printing presses so they can add a new story that is very important.

I was listening to Dr. Christiane Northrup, she suggested vitamin d over and over again, like prescription sized doses. She believes it.

I need to look up Dr Christine. I never heard if her. It would be nice if you left a link to who she is. I am a considerate person.

She wrote the Wisdom of Menopause.
An obstetrician-gynecologist and author of three books.
Oh I see now. She is the hottest looking M.D. I bet some fat and ugly MDs hate her. She mentions some vitamin D studies that I will add to my website. I have a webpage that I wrote years ago on curing colds and flus. I mentioned vitamin D and getting enough sleep but now there is research to back it up. The New York Times recently reported on a study that found that those who get less than seven hours of sleep a night are three times as likely to catch a cold as those who sleep at least eight hours a night.

Christiane Northrup, M.D.

Vitamin D is not a vitamin since the body cannot create a vitamin but can create vitamin D. So it is a conditional hormone/vitamin. The only one. Man was supposed to get lots of sunlight and then this would not be a concern. The healthiest people are getting lifeguard amounts of sunlight. For lifeguards life is a beach.

I just want to give my props to Vitamin D.

I was dealing with serious dizzy spells, nausea and anxiety issues off and on for the longest time. The doctors performed their various tests and could not find anything wrong with me. I was eating well and exercising regularly and was frustrated beyond belief as to why I was still feeling so crummy. I refused the recommended "happy pills" and got a new doctor. She performed a Vitamin D test on a whim and found that my level was at a 5. Recommended levels are supposed to be above 50 optimally 70-100. Obviously I wasn't getting enough sun and wasn't getting what I needed in my diet. I now take Vitamin D supplements and feel fantastic.

From what I read vitamin D deficiency doesn't manifest into physical issues until it's too late or if you're at extremely low levels. This test isn't part of a normal blood draw so you need to specifically ask for it each time you get your physical. Do it.

I recently destroyed a developing cold by using vitamin D. The formula is 2,000IU for each kg. of body weight (which for me was 180,000IU a day) for 3 days. That meant 36 gel caps of 5,000IU, which seems outrageous, but it disappeared all symptoms in 48 hrs!

More info on the vitamin D cure for colds here:

How much vitamin D can you reasonably take on a daily basis without ill effects?
Would be interesting to see if my energy levels were to increase if I were to induce copious amounts of it for a week or so.

To find out what the scientists say is a safe amount, watch the video. It is not a set amount but all the scientists did agree that anyone could take 2,000 IU a day of vitamin D.
