Vitamin D3

[Guest guest]

> Bee, I'm trying to replace the D3 that didn't agree with me. However, all

the ones I'm finding have Vitamin A in it (600 mg). Is that ok? You told me to

add 1 capsule 400mg Vit D3 and 10000 IU of Vitamin A to the 1T of CLO. I didn't

know if I got a Vit D3 supplement with extra A in it, if it would be too much.

I already have the Vit A supplement and each cap has 10000 IU in it. Thank you

graciously, Care

+++Hi Care. Yes it is okay to take a vitamin D3 if it contains 400 IUs along

with 600 mg of vitamin A, in addition to 10,000 IU vitamin A you have.

Bee...I am having a hard time finding D3 without soybean oil in it. Is the

Lanolin form of d3 ok? Or can you recommend a fish oil one that is acceptable.

+++Hi Care. Everyone is having a tough time finding D3 without soybean. It

seems as if manufacturers are in a conspiracy to only produce oil soluble

vitamins A, D and E with soybean now. Even my most reliable source, Natural

Factors, has been changing their products.

I don't have the time to search, but if you do you can help us all! Also write

to Natural Factors and complain about the soy, stating how many people are

allergic to it - here's a reference to soy allergies you can use:

I'm going to be writing to Natural Factors too.

Can you give me more information, ingredients, etc. for the Lanolin form of D3 ?

Vitamin D Deficiency is Pandemic

Not just any old " D " , but " D3 "

" If you think Vitamin D only affects your bones, think again. In recent years

medical investigators have re-opened research into this " common " vitamin – and

have come away with a new found respect for its wide ranging health and healing

properties. Their overwhelming consensus? Vitamin D3 supplementation is

necessary. And lots of it!

" Vitamin D3 is one of the few vitamins the body can actually manufacture itself,

through a complex process involving sunlight. But this isn't enough. In fact, in

a recent study, 83% of people in Saudi Arabia were found to be Vitamin D

deficient! (And you really can't find a sunnier place than Saudi Arabia!) "

Hi Bee,

Im gonna stick with my daily dose of 2 tbsp of CLO twice a day along

with my other supps cause thus far i am seeing improvements, ever so

slow, but patience is key in this new way of life for me.

Not now, but when winter arrives again im gonna use a tanning bed as

well. It says you get about 100 to 200 iu for each five percent of body

surface, and that light skinned people like myself require 10 to 20mins

daily.

I assume those iu are based on the 10 to 20 mins in the sun, so i was

gonna calculate by splitting everything down the middle. 15 mins in the

tanning bed, equals 150iu for 5% of body surface While in tanning bed

100% of body surface is covered,therefore you would be getting 3000iu

per 15 mins in the tanning bed. And if you were to do 10mins sessions

you would get 2000iu which would seem more appropriate.

Anyway may i still take CLO this winter while using the tanning bed for

10mins daily. I hope its fine cause i really want to keep up with CLO.

Right now i get moderate sun, but will get very little during winter

months. I live up in the north pole in Canada, ha, ha.

Thanks again..... Caine.....

+++Hi Caine,

I live in Ontario.

It isn't just a matter of using a tanning bed either, since you must ensure your

body has time to build up natural fats and oils on the skin prior to tanning,

and also after, so ensure you understand all of the requirements for making

vitamin D on your skin.

Cheers, Bee

Hi Bee,

As of now i havent showered or bathed for approx two weeks due to

reading and learning that it does remove fats and oils your body

produces.

All of my life i have had extremely dry, inflammed skin all over my body

and showered daily as i was brought up to do, and being told it would

help me with my skin to disinfect it, then following my showers i would

coat myself with numerous creams to no avail. Now i know why thanks to

you, and my reading research that was false info.

Areas affected scalp, face,lips, neck,arms,legs, you name it.. Severe

eczema on my hands, and feet, atheltes foot etc,etc,etc, its nuts.

I believe in your diet 100% as i am seeing slow improvements as i said

earlier, by detoxing through all avenues of my skin which is horrible,

and hurts so bad.

Right now my health is my top priority, particularly my skin, and i know

i have a long journey.With that said if the sun or tanning bed will help

me in moderation along with CLO and other supps, then i will incorperate

it into my new way of life.

My whole life i was told to stay out of the sun as much as possible, and

defenitelty a tanning bed. Its kinda like ive been programmed, and ive

been going backwards forever.

I remember when a few months ago i asked you about sun exposure, and you

said yes the sun a good thing in moderation, but i left it at that for

two reasons. First i was programmed different on info about the sun.

Second after i spent a couple of days in the sun i got extremely itchy

and redder all over, not understanding at the time it was a detox

reaction. Dah.

So if the sun and/or tanning bed maybe for ten minutes a day are safe in

your opinion, and maybe beneficial, then reluctantly i will try it, as

everything else you suggested have seemed to be positive thus far.

Sorry for long post, but the tanning bed or sun were no, no, no, my

whole life, and now to think skin cancer is not caused by sun,

especially in moderation.

Thanks again..... Caine.....

The data I've seen is that one should not shower or bathe for 20 to 30

minutes after being in the sun, to absorb the vitamin D that forms on the

skin. After that it's pretty much all absorbed and you can shower.

Hi Zack,

Ok thanks for that. As i said i havent showered, but i have body washed

once per week with facecloth and CO.

My whole body is extremely dry, and ive suffered with this for years,

along with other candida symptoms.

So i will go this afternoon in the sun for a few minutes, and know its

alright. Wow im kinda excited. Im whiter than a piece of paper. LOL. You

would not believe how i thought the sun/tanning bed were so bad for us

in its contribution to skin cancer, etc.

Thanks..... Caine.....

+++Hi Zack,

However, I've seen data that the body needs 24 hours, and another reference says

48 hours. Do you have a reference?

I think it was one of Adele ' books. It might not be either. I'll check

Hi Bee,

According to ph Mercola he says also you shouldnt shower for 48hrs

after exposure, and then only use water, and no soap.

Well, for one thing I was outside and got some sun on Sunday but I ended up

getting covered with mud shortly thereafter. I couldn't wait 2 days to wash

the mud off.

Caine, be very careful with that supplemental oral vitamin d tablets. My uncle

was severely overdosed on vitamin d by his doc and he is still suffering 3

months later with bone pain, muscle pain and fatigue.

I dont think these vitamin d supplements have very good quality control so

therefore you have no idea how much you are taking. Please be careful.

Hi Phyllis,

Thank you for your response, much appreciated.I don't take oral vit d

tablets though, i take CLO from iherb, two tbsp twice daily which gives

me 1200iu daily.
