why did i never hear the wonders of Vitamin D
@Battery9876 it doesn’t shut down it’s own production because it’s just an alternative way of getting vitamin d. you can get vitamin d toxicity by eating too many foods rich on that vitamin but u won’t get that kind of toxicity if you get vitamin d from sunlight.
It’s incredible how the amazing effects of vitamin D are constantly belittled? by health authorities and their loyal servants a.k.a doctors. Personally I’ve never felt this good, having taken D for several months. My acne and seasonal depression have gotten SO MUCH better. There should be more brave individuals like this man who dare to speak out.
Get your vitamin D from iHerb, use the code NAS469 to get a special discount. It costs virtually nothing, yet the health benefits can be amazing.
ok, thanks.
@Battery9876
No.
If vitamin D is a hormone, does taking vitamin D as a supplement cause the body to shut down its own production?
You have the sun!
I take them every day for multiple sclerosis( 5k) I wish I’d known years ago what I know now,but even then I feel lik a new woman and am working and walking after being diagnosed for more than 27 years,Vitamin D deficiency is a congenital deficiency of vitaminD. Where the sun is strongest, no m.S. where it is least,i.e. Scotland we have the most M.S. in the whole world,and load of cancer and diabetes and rheumatoid arthritis etc etc etc. I
@Squabbles10 I buy Spring Valley Maximum Strength D-3, 5000 IU. I take one with breakfast everyday along with 8000 IU of vitamin A. I haven’t got sick since I started.
you can take them in tablet form squabbles all health food shops stock them
@indigo11274 sir it is both a medical and scientific fact that “cancer drugs” i.e. chemotherapy are anti-cellular, as in kills cells. they do not kill cancer cells, they kill all cells. there is no drug treatment to date that cures/ halts/ arrests/ remove cancer from the human body.
you’re right vitamin D alone isn’t a cute. you need C, A, B12 b3, b6 all in high doses. YOu need a battery of pure vitamins to halt arrest and reverse cancer.
Cancer is a vitamin deficiency.
I’m not arguing that Vitamin D has many benefits. I was simply stating that ONLY vitamins does not provide a cure to cancer. Treating cancer with ONLY vitamin D is NOT a good idea, it will lead to death. Vitamin D and cancer drugs is a great idea, ONLY vitamin D is bad.
@Squabbles10 well there was a not so scientific study that found that patients that were taking 2,000 i.u. daily were completely not getting sick in a section of a hospital, where everyone else was. So that’s a good start. I find 2,000 i.u. to be readily available in my local markets.
Oh yes, i’m in Australia, i will find some, but do you know what doses …..
@Squabbles10 In my research at first I thought you needed doctor injections, but I found a doctor that said very high doses taken throughout the day, would be equivalent to injections.
I would add, make sure you get the good stuff, not that cheap stuff with bad fillers.
@indigo11274 it’s the deficiencies which are the causes of most if not all major illnesses. How can you argue with medical fact? These tests that they put the vitamins through and ended up winning nobel prizes are based on a regimen of high doses of vitamins. At the cellular level, that is the very thing the cells need, for repair, reproduction, energy production, and proper decay. No drug is going to do that. NO DRUG.
To say “only vitamins” is like saying “only oxygen for breathing?”
how do we take this ?
Just vitamins? Vitamins ONLY work over a long period of time, tissues often take 3-6months to restore levels of depleted vitamins. Treating with vitamins alone is NOT a treatment.
i have started taking D3, and am starting to feel great…wow!
VITAMIN D ~ A miracle drug :)
My sister’s been battling colitis for years. Visits to the mayo clinic and they couldn’t figure it out. I told her to start taking Vit D 3 months ago and the colitis is now gone. My brother was experiencing eczema rashes. Told him to take Vit D… Gone. My mother was having pain in her knee and had been getting periodical cortisone shots. Told her to take Vit D…. Pain gone. Ever since I started Vit D haven’t been sick once. Brother even had swine flu… didn’t get it. I’d try it.
I want all of you to pray for me. My uncle was just diagnosed with cancer.
I asked my aunt to please have him take … just vitamins… she said “no we are going to do the chemotherapy” again i said what about vitamins “i don’t know what the doctor has prescribed, but that’s what we’re doing”
This woman is a judge, not a dumb person. She won’t even add vitamins to his regimen. She won’t do anything the doctor won’t tell her to do. She lost her daughter to chemo in 3 months. :(
To An End
I’ve seen recent research studies which suggest strongly that supplementing even with small amounts of vitamin A (not betacarotene) inhibits absorbtion of vitamin D. I would urge the doctor to look into this a little closer.
