Its best to take Vitamin D3 supplements available OTC....Also, Vitamin D in foods is just not enough. We all need to update ourselves... take a look at this article...D3 or Disease, Disability & Death! This article also provides a break of Vitamin D in various foods and you will note that its just not enough. Also, with the talk of Swine Flu hitting again this fall, its advisable to read point 3 of the best defense against the flu! of this post reproduced hereunder with focus on US:3) THE BEST DEFENSE FOR SWINE or any flu is to

strengthen our Immune Systemyear round. And Vitamin D3 apparently does that! Here in the USwhere (2000 IU, 5000 IU, 50,000 IU) over-the-counter capsules areavailable.Dr. Cannell MD states "As I weigh 220 pounds (100 kg), I would take 200,000 IU per day for seven days if I thought I had an infection with a 1918-like influenza virus." That's 1,400,000 IU or about equivalent to two Injections of Arachitol 15mg (600,000IU). And I believe each injection costs a measly Rs.25/- ! Everyone can easily afford it!My 25(OH)D test resulted a dangerously low of 12.2 ng/ml on 27th March of this year. Over the following 8 weeks, I consumed a total 2,260,000 IU over 56 days averaging daily to about 40,000 IU !My subsequent test result (in

June) was 239 ng/ml ! Its high when oneconsiders the normal range between 32-100 ng/ml and some may even callthis toxic!! Truth is, I have never felt any better than now!Canada is seriously examining Vitamin D for swine flu protection. Beforelong, the world will wake up to D3.Technically not a "vitamin", Vitamin D is in a class by itself. Its metabolic product, calcitriol, is actually a secosteroid hormonethat targets over 2000 genes in the human body. Current research hasimplicated Vitamin D deficiency as a major factor in the pathology ofat least 17 varieties of cancer as well as heart disease, stroke,hypertension , autoimmune diseases, diabetes, depression, chronic pain,osteoarthritis , osteoporosis, muscle weakness, birth defects,periodontal disease, and more.No wonder,

its either Vitamin D3 or Disease, Disability and Death...you choose! You may wish to watch Dr. Cannell's video titled "Take Vitamin D3, Not the Flu Shot" D3is FREELY available from the Sun too! However, research has shown thatmany people from 'sunny' India, Africa, Australia or Middle East areVitamin D deficient. Plus the current normal range is itselfquestionable. Levels should be above 50 ng/ml year-round, in both children and adults, according to Vitamin D Council. Ever wondered why young children and older people get the flu more and why mostly in winter or rainy seasons? Take a Vitamin D3 blood test 25-hydroxyvitamin D test, also called a 25(OH)D and convince yourself. Click here to know which is the correct test.Good luck! > > >> > On the subject of the benefits of vitamin D this flu season, I'mï¿½ > > having a hard time finding childrens chewable vit D, or a multivitï¿½ > > with extra vit.

As most people do not get mid-day sun exposure while naked or near

naked (unless they get to hang-out on a beach 7 days a week),

supplementing with D3 in addition to getting some noonday sun might be

a good idea. I shall make another post with lots of snippets and

referencing URLs on why we need far more than the RDA for vitamin D.

> =====================

> The ultraviolet wavelength that stimulates our bodies to produce vitamin D is

UV-B. It is sometimes called the " burning ray " because it is the primary cause

of sunburn (erythema). However, UV-B initiates beneficial responses, stimulating

the production of vitamin D that the body uses in many important processes.

Although UV-B causes sunburn, it also causes special skin cells called

melanocytes to produce melanin, which is protective. UV-B also stimulates the

production of Melanocyte Stimulating Hormone (MSH), an important hormone in

weight loss and energy production.8

> The reason it is difficult to get adequate vitamin D from sunlight is that

while UV-A is present throughout the day, the amount of UV-B present has to do

with the angle of the sun's rays. Thus, UV-B is present only during midday hours

at higher latitudes, and only with significant intensity in temperate or

tropical latitudes. Only 5 percent of the UV-B light range goes through glass

and it does not penetrate clouds, smog or fog.

> Sun exposure at higher latitudes before 10 am or after 2 pm will cause burning

from UV-A before it will supply adequate vitamin D from UV-B. This finding may

surprise you, as it did the researchers. It means that sunning must occur

between the hours we have been told to avoid. Only sunning between 10 am and 2

pm during summer months (or winter months in southern latitudes) for 20-120

minutes, depending on skin type and color, will form adequate vitamin D before

burning occurs.9

> It takes about 24 hours for UV-B-stimulated vitamin D to show up as maximum

levels of vitamin D in the blood. Cholesterol-containing body oils are critical

to this absorption process.10 Because the body needs 30-60 minutes to absorb

these vitamin-D-containing oils, it is best to delay showering or bathing for

one hour after exposure. The skin oils in which vitamin D is produced can also

be removed by chlorine in swimming pools.

> The current suggested exposure of hands, face and arms for 10-20 minutes,

three times a week, provides only 200-400 IU of vitamin D each time or an

average of 100-200 IU per day during the summer months. In order to achieve

optimal levels of vitamin D, 85 percent of body surface needs exposure to prime

midday sun. (About 100-200 IU of vitamin D is produced for each 5 percent of

body surface exposed, we want 4,000 iu.) Light skinned people need 10-20 minutes

of exposure while dark skinned people need 90-120 minutes.11

> Latitude and altitude determine the intensity of UV light. UV-B is stronger at

higher altitudes. Latitudes higher than 30° (both north and south) have

insufficient UV-B sunlight two to six months of the year, even at midday.12

Latitudes higher than 40° have insufficient sunlight to achieve optimum levels

of D during six to eight months of the year. In much of the US, which is between

30° and 45° latitude, six months or more during each year have insufficient UV-B

sunlight to produce optimal D levels. In far northern or southern locations,

latitudes 45° and higher, even summer sun is too weak to provide optimum levels

of vitamin D.13-15 A simple meter is available to determine UV-B levels where

you live.

That is exactly what Hannah's doctor said. It's still summer here and Hannah

was outside a lot, yet she still dropped from May - August. That is why he

wants to recheck her in early December to make sure she doesn't get really low

again (she was below 10 when she was first tested).

Also, one should be sensitive when they have the test. Your levels

will be higher in the summer and early fall because one is usually

out in the sun more. So if you are low in the summer, think what

your levels would be like in the winter. Really low!! I am a

+++Hi ,

Since vitamin D requires other nutrients in order to be absorbed and utilized,

particularly the correct balance of omega 3 and vitamin A, you only need the

amount I recommend. It's working for me and people on my program, so why take

more than is needed.

As I always say " More is Not Better. "

All of the fats and oils work along two pathways in the body, including oil

soluable vitamins A, D and E.

They are the omega 6 and omega 3 pathway. If you get too much omega 6 it blocks

the omega 3 pathway, so that's why you need the amount of omega 3 I recommend to

balance out the pathways so they work properly, since you get plenty of omega 6

in the diet.

After being in an accident and not seeming to ‘recover as expected’, a

dedicated Dr. tested my D levels. They were so low that there wasn’t

enough vitamin D for the soft tissue to attach successfully back onto the

skeleton. I took quintuple the recommended dosage for 2 ½ years and just

now got blood work back showing my level to be in the middle of the

suggested range. It has made a great deal of difference in how I function,

as has all the excellent counsel on Bee’s protocol. I use the vitamin D

emulsion drops. I previously purchased them from the Dr., but found the

same brand through Amazon.

BTW, my Dr. was involved in a research project that time and again proved

that the USDA recommended daily allowance for vitamin D, is woefully

inadequate.

If you have a Dr. that is intuitive enough to suggest vitamin D, I would

perhaps ask her/him to check your levels every now and again just to make

sure you’re neither under or over dosed.

Warmly,

Jen B.

My recent blood test has revealed that I am still low on Vit. D. I have been

taking 2 tablespoons of Garden of Life CLO daily for the past 2 years. Can

someone suggest how I can elevate this level. My MD suggested adding Vit. D

drops to bring my levels up? Could it be that I am not absborbing what I am

taking? Thanks for your advice.
