I read the book Vitamin D3 Miracle by Jeff T. Bowels and was very impressed. On one of the reviews, I read about a girl taking (3) D3-50 a day along with Super Vit K2. I have also read online from several doctors that they had never come across VIT D Toxicity. Then along came COVID-19, so I thought, I would give it a try to boost my immune system. At first, I started out on 1 a day, after a month or so increased it to 3 a day. Another month later, I started to get sick with symptoms similar to COVID-19, except for no fever. I was tested and the results were negative. I continued to get sicker and a day later told my husband I needed to go to the hospital. I was throwing up and super exhausted. When I arrived at the hospital, I found that my calcium levels were at 18 and that night I almost died. Those are the levels that create a coma and death, the doctors told me the high calcium levels were due to Vitamin D Toxicity. The high calcium also created high kidney numbers along with high blood pressure, I found that all of these things work together. 6 days later I left the hospital. We are still working to bring down my calcium, kidney, and blood pressure numbers. Before this I had no issues with any of these things. This is a painful and expensive lesson to me. I just wanted to warn anyone that Vitamin D3 is a strong and powerful hormone supplement and there is such a thing as Vitamin D Toxicity. Please be careful.

Ironic he calls it the sunshine vitamin but you are not a fan of being outside in the midday sun? More people need to move more be in touch with nature and reduce stress that is part of the problem. |

Older adults, because your skin doesn't make vitamin D when exposed to sunlight as efficiently as when you were young, and your kidneys are less able to convert vitamin D to its active form. People with dark skin, which has less ability to produce vitamin D from the sun.Feb 28, 2017
You are too old so supplement your D3;000)))
I ran 60000 miles

Ulcers were a cash cow for gastroenterologists and surgeons. The Mayo Clinic for example was built on gastric surgery.

This I did not know. Always thought the mushrooms had to be fresh and raw to absorb vit D from sunshine. I have several jars of sliced, dried mushrooms and also powder. I will set them out on a tray for 6 hours a day for two days, so I can increase the amount of vitamin D in them.
Doing very well (thanks for asking) and looking forward to the Fall mushroom hunt. First off in the Fall we go high up into the mts and harvest Kings and Hedgehogs. We usually wait for the first Sept rains, and then we go to a lower elevation for the white and golden chanterelles around the same time period. We go even lower for the Fall and Spring oyster mushrooms.
Have fun! ;) |
