Guest guest Posted September 25, 2008 Report Share Posted September 25, 2008 Thanks, Kris. I have been taking Vit D, about 2000IU per day. Was taking 8000IU per day for a while, per my D.C.'s recommendation. A test last year showed low levels of Vit D. What dose does the reference you cited recommend?

Guest guest Posted September 26, 2008 Report Share Posted September 26, 2008 Sorry Darren, sounds like vitamin D is not the solution. As notes, there was some confusion between " rounds " and " days " . I'm expecting to chelate half time for three years, based on the symptoms on p. 131 plus my intention to err on the side of low doses, and although I hope to see progress in a year, it may not happen. Regarding vitamin D, I'm not sure of all the nuances in the dosing recommendation. I take 2000 - 3000 IU (plus 20,000-25,000 IU of vitamin A plus vitamin K) and wonder about adding another 1000 since I have a yeast problem that may be blocking vitamin D. http://www.westonaprice.org/basicnutrition/vitamindmiracle.html Kris H. > > > > Darren -- I don't know -- it sounds like you are mobilizing but not > > excreting. > > > > In my opinion, Cutler seems to give short shrift to vitamin D.
