The biggest downside of Vitamin D is that it’s cheap and not profitable for pharmaceutical companies….
And what about the risk of calcification of arteries?

Ny 92 yr old mom reached 96 on her test. The doctor said to cut it down we were doing 10'000 iu a day . She went from deficent 3 years ago to this now. No flu, no cold, no covid, no shots.
My thyroid and COPD have improved since mine was at 19 in 2014 now last test a year ago 69 but I am sure it is up more for I take 10,000 IU in the winter months. No flu for years,a few colds, no shot's.
My doctor refused to do a vitamin D test when I asked for one. Says it all really
All depends on what kind of healthcare system you live in. Any kind of social welfare type system will require you to pay out of pocket for levels like Vitamin D, unless you are suffering from a condition that requires the level. However you can always go to a private lab and have the level drawn yourself, you simply have to pay for it yourself. Which can be quite expensive, especially if you live in a place with already very expensive healthcare costs.❤
In Germany, we have to pay for the test out of our own pocket. The fact that a doctor doesn't want to do this is quite something.
magnesium is key to absorbtion of vitamins. look into magnesium therapy.
But they are quick to check cholesterol (mainly made by the liver) and put you on statins.
In greece you can do the test once a year in the healthcare system. If you want to pay for it, it cost 15 E
A friend of mine who lives in New England, is obese and rarely walks outside finally got relief from his chronic depression by taking higher doses of vitamin D. One simple supplement did far more for him than countless hours of therapy and a whole spectrum of "antidepressants".

Listen to Georgia Ede and Chris Palmer on Metabolic Mind for insights on how diet can affect mental health.
15 years ago I worked with a family whose 18 mth old who was not thriving. Not gaining weight, lethargic, always sleeping ,her hair was only as long as eyelashes. She was under all normal levels for height and size. Her doctors did nothing (always blamed the parents for the diet etc)until a locum from Poland saw the child and scheduled blood tests for vit D levels. They came back very low and Vit D was prescribed. A few months later with no other pharmaceutical medications she began to grow, gain weight, had energy, her hair grew and she started to catch up on normal scales for weight and height. As time went further on she became happy, healthy and energetic. A totally different child to the 18 mth old with no energy, who slept more than normal.
I was a medical rep. One of my Paeds from Ghana, very dark skin, was offended when I told him people with dark skin are often vitamin D deficient. He died of COVID months later
That is a great story. The one thing that stands out is the arrogant nature of the doctors who blamed her until a Polish practitioner offered such a simple solution. Now we have to ask.....why are things still the same?
Lots of parents lost kids to social care or even death and abuse charges. Because vit d was not checked. The vitamin b12 is also majorly underdiagnosed I became unable to complete a sentence without forgetting what I was going on about. B12 shots and I could remember and speak clearly Iron is another one that made me realise just how important it is along with iodine
Yep, I believe that 💯
I was deficient in vitamin D and B12. My doctor would check it every month. I don't have medical insurance, be it is too expensive, so I haven't been checked in a long time, but I still take both plus other vitamins especially EFA oils.

Why not just take a standard supplement, or get more sunlight? Why waste time with a test?

Thank you John. You're a massive benefit to society. I'm in Canada; there are a ton of blood tests that could be saving the health care system billions by keeping us all healthier. Instead my GP tells me she can't order half the tests I want because the provincial health care system thinks it's saving money by banning GPs from ordering them. And because all the labs work for the provincial health care system (OHIP, in my case, in Ontario) I can't even ask for & pay for the testing myself. Oddly enough, a specialist CAN order them. But the whole point of ordering them - for me, the patient - is to ensure I don't need the specialist. It's bloody daft. Damn. My British heritage is leaking out. Oh hell, I'll say it: they're penny-wise & pound-foolish. Keep up the good work, John. We're all grateful.
I had to implore my doctor in B.C for the test, I understand I must pay the fee but it's worth it
They used to allow us to test in Alberta, but not anymore. My doctor said your pretty much have to be dying or terminal for him to be able to order a vitamin D blood test

My vitamin D was 99 at last check…my doctor said it was too high and advised getting it down to 70. I was taking 10,000 units per day. I’m 77, female and 145 lbs. My medical practitioners have not updated what they learned in med school obviously so, I feel I am largely on my own.

@@h-l-l Wow! Thanks for sharing your story regarding Vitamin D! It bolsters my confidence to carry on.
Next time please think of not taking vitamin D three days before the test, otherwise it will seem higher then it actually is:-)
@@monag.769 Really? Vitamin D has to be converted into 25(OH)D in the liver, and that's what they meassure. I don't think that level varies fast enough with daily intake of vitamin D that you have to avoid that. Do you have any data supporting that, or is it just a guess?

I have noticed quite a few comments about Dr John not being a Dr. Here in Australia there is a doctorate of nursing. The wife of a former premier of Queensland, a nurse, had a doctorate of nursing and was addressed as Professor..... I am supposing the same applies in England. Whether he is or not, he has a wealth of knowledge that he imparts freely. More power to him!
He holds a phd in nursing from the university of Bolton and to quote directly from his wiki page "He received the Ph.D. for his work on developing methods of teaching via digital media such as online videos." Which is what he's doing here. All that aside just because someone is a doctor doesn't make them right about everything otherwise no doctors would disagree about anything.
the articl es and research that he presents for discussion, like he says, can be read independently, and it is possible to get a second opinion.
He is not a medical doctor.
@@stevepayne240 He phd is in nursing so he's not a doctor doctor but that would still be medical.
He is way better than a basic GP doctor, he is a doctor of Nursing and teaching...
In 2004 I was a young woman diagnosed with breast cancer. At the time I had a wonderful oncologist who told me of research on vitamin d and its usefulness to help with one’s immune system. At that time because we live in a northern climate (western Canada) she recommended 4000units a day initially. I have been on vitamin D for 20 years and have been healthy since I decrease that amount in summer to 3000 units a day.
Look into Dr Valter Longo and Prof Thomas Seyfried. Fasting and a low carb diet can help to a surpising degree with cancer, recovering from chemotherapy, and especially preventing the onset or return of cancer! Some benefits of occasional extended fasting and lowering carbs in the diet: High blood pressure is lowered to normal levels very quickly while fasting. Fibrosis/scarring is reversed over time, including in the heart and lungs. Vitamin D plasma levels are increased as fasting improves metabolic health, and vitamin D in turn increases autophagy. When insulin is high, vit D stays locked in the blood cells. Fasting stimulates phagocytosis, the ingestion plaques, growths and pathogens by the immune system. This will also remove spikes quicker, whether natural or unnatural in origin! Your body recycles up to 1/3 of all immune bodies in a 72h fast, rejuvenating your entire immune system. This helps prevent the onset of new autoimmune conditions, which develop through a leaky gut and damaged immune system. Blood sugar and insulin are lowered when fasting, reducing inflammation and allowing the immune bodies to move freely through the body. Blood clotting is lessened and clots and plaques are removed over time. Fasting restores your circadian rhythm to normal over time. T cells and T reg cells are vital in fighting cancer, autoimmune disease and infections but as we age the thymus stops making as many of them. Fasting releases stem cells, which then can become new T cells. It also releases growth hormone, which regenerates the thymus itself! Fasting restores NAD+ and increases nitric oxide release to open blood vessels. Reflexes and short term memory are increased. Fasting increases anti-aging Yamanaka factors and increases average telomere length in stem cell pools. Fasting can help with MS, Depression, BPD, Autism and seizures. When you move out of MTOR your body shuts down the building blocks of the cell required for viruses to replicate. The hunger hormone ghrelin also lowers with extended fasting and rises from dieting. What breaks a fast? Anything with protein or carbohydrates in it will break a fast but most teas and herbs are OK. Supplements and meds often break ketosis directly or contain a filler that will. Many meds are dangerous to take while fasting. Does fasting lower testosterone? No, it raises it when the fast is broken by increasing lutenizing hormone. Fasting also increases insulin sensitivity, which helps with muscle building. Fasting activates autophagy (literally self eating). This will cause cells to recycle damaged proteins and foreign matter such as viruses. Weight loss from daily caloric restriction has 1/4 to 1/3 of the weight lost as lean tissue while many studies show fat loss from 36 h fasts without losing any lean tissue! The obese will lose loose skin while fasting, but the frail will have increased growth hormone release, which helps to make more lean tissue and reduce frailness. Fasts of 36-96 will not affect short term female fertility or affect menstrual cycle. They also may increase long term fertility for some women. Fasting reduces pain and anxiety by stimulating the endocannabinoid system, just like the effect of CBD oil Just 24h of fasting can cut your leptin levels in half! This reduces leptin resistance, which impairs immune function. Stomach acid is reduced over time while fasting and can allow for the healing of treatment resistant ulcers. Some patients may need continued acid reduction medication while fasting. Your brain also prefers to burn ketones at a rate of around 2.5 to 1 when they are available in equal quantity to glucose. Except for brief periods of very intense exercise, your body mainly burns fats in the form of free fatty acids. It increases mitochondrial function and repairs mitichondrial DNA, leading to improved ATP production and oxygen efficiency. Increased mitochondrial function also has the added benefit of increasing your metabolism, fighting infection and cancer prevention! Fasting releases BDNF and NGF in the blood which stimulates new nerve and brain cell growth. This can help a great deal with diseases like MS, peripheral neuropathy and Alzheimers. When not in ketosis, the brain can only burn carbohydrate, which produces a great deal of damaging ROS the brain has to deal with. Fasting also increases telomere length, negating some of the effects of aging at a cellular level. When you fast, this stimulates apoptosis in senescent or genetically damaged cells, destroying them. Senescent cells are responsible for many of the effects of aging and are a root cause of the development of cancer. A fasting mimicking diet for 3-5 days in a row also provides many of the same benefits as water fasting. FMD usually has 200-800 calories, under 18 g of protein and extremely low carbs. Exogenous ketones can aid with fasting, making it easier in healthy people and allowing some people with specific issues to fast in spite of them without worrying as much about hypoglycemia. They also help with dementia and many other issues even if you take them while not fasting! Glycine and trimethylglycine can also be useful supplements while fasting that won't break ketosis and have many benefits. Children, pregnant or nursing women should not fast for periods longer than 16 hours. People with pancreatic tumors or certain forms of hypoglycemia generally cannot fast at all. Type 1 diabetics can also fast but it is more complicated and should be approached with caution as it could lead to ketoacidosis. If you experience extreme symptoms of some kind, especially dizziness or tremors, then simply break the fast and seek advice.

I had chronic vitamin d deficiency 5 years ago and I knew something was badly wrong. I was exhausted almost permanently and struggled to concentrate even long enough to read a paragraph of a newspaper. I worked part time at the post office and had a job putting letters into trays based on whether they were large, small, first class or second class and each one took serious thought and time! Holy moley! I thought I had a brain tumour - I went to the doctors again and again until I finally got a test and he said the result indicated that I had been living in a cave for a couple of years. I took supplements straight away and began walking in winter's limited daylight for 2 hours a day despite my exhaustion. After 4 weeks I began to feel better. I was so relieved! I've taken 4,000 IU's a day every since.
12:30 a great takeaway, infection depletes vitamin d. So take more vitamin d during an infection. Don't forget to add magnesium as it helps activate vitamin d.
which magnesium?

Back in the 1970's I listed the supplements I was taking during my 3rd pregnancy, he was appalled and ordered me to stop taking such "toxic" levels! I said check my levels, and if they were too high I would reduce them. When the tests came back, they were within the "optimum" for producing a healthy baby, and to protect my own health. He shut up. I produced beautiful children, who did not have cavities until their 20's (and several years out of the home) and rarely were they ill.
One smart mother 👍 Unlike your doctor
Well done!
I've been taking a supplement called ashwaganda lately ,done wonders for my insomnia and anxiety, when I mentioned it to my doctor he told me I was been irresponsible and tried to push a covid vaccine on me , I laughed at the irony.

“How might you feel if you are actually low on vitamin D?” I used to live in a tropical country with sun all year round. I remember that I used to feel happy for no reason. I am just sitting down and nothing is happening or no one is there, but I am happy. After moving to Canada, I forgot this feeling. I actually feel depressed in the winter. After some years, I finally took a vitamin D supplement (10,000iu) and I suddenly felt happy for no reason again. I would say, if you are feeling sad more often than not, then you are most likely vitamin D deficient.
First of all, you're in Canada, so that's depressing, right off the back...😁
You have gone from a warm tropical country, to a mostly cold with a much weaker sunshine level, plus it’s now going towards an authoritarian system, I am not surprised.
Diet tends to change if you move country. Canadians have a very high animal product consumption especially in the winter. Little fruit.
My husband was told by his doc that he was dangerously low in D. He was at a 16. He put him on D3 with K. Within a few weeks it was like a happy switch went on! He thought his low mood was just him being him! It's gotten to 35 and doc wants him at over 50. I'd say for sure get tested! You may need to supplement. I'm heading to his same doc. We live in Houston , Tx but due to the heat and his job hubby is mostly indoors. I get more sunshine daily, so I hope I'm at a good level. We will see!🌞
Seattle ppl take "light therapy" for depression...not much sunshine!
Very interesting. It was an Indian doctor at my gp practice who got my vit D tested when I saw him for low mood. I am forever thankful to him and sorry he moved on from the practice.
Could I ask how low your level of vit D was then?
In Dutch psychiatry, the blood level of vitamin D, is a routine check. The recommended daily dose of vitamin D is, in my view, wholly inadequate - only 200 IU. I'm 64 y.o., male, healthy, 187cm (6' 1") tall, and my weight is 98kg. I have been taking 12000 IU vit. D each day, as well as 75 mcg vit K2. for about 2 years. It seems to work just fine for me. Over the last 4 years, my 83 year old mother had many minor aches and pains, and she suffered from regular bouts of low mood, but seemed healthy enough. She was on the recommended daily dose of vitamin D (200 IU). I tried to convince her to take more, but she was adamant that she would not. Her GP was against taking more vit. D, so it was a lost cause. Only 7 days ago, she contracted the flu (slight fever), and 5 days later, she passed away. It is 100% obvious to me: my mother had next to nothing in reserve, and her body simply couldn't deal with the infection. A decent level of vitamin D in her blood probably would have saved her - or so I'd like to think anyway.
@@remkojerphanion4686 So sorry to hear about your mother. That is so sad especially like you say, could have been prevented. A lot of people in Canada only take 2000 iu or a few will take 5000. Myself, I am petite, and I have been taking 10,000 all winter and no colds or flu at all. I think people need so much more than doctors advise. Take care

My dog is mostly indoors. Every sunny day he'll go outside and sun bathe. You can't get him in the house for nothing. 😁 He knows he needs the sun.
I wonder if I play with my dog's fur after she has been sun bathing if I will get vit-d enriched dog fur oil on my hands and it absorbs in the skin. Maybe that is a factor why people with pets can live healthier. 🤔😆
In hindsight, I'm now wondering if one of the primary intents of the stay-at-home order during the pandemic was to prohibit people from going out in the sun.

I like to read ahead in the health arena...it's essential imo for keeping my family's health intact, so we do our daily cold plungrs, sauna, red/UV light and so far so good. 👍👍
Wow how and where you know 250 nmol is safe pls ?
@@williamlee6079 I read a lot...and follow minds such as Dr. Jack Kruse.
@@williamlee6079 "Pharmacokinetics of vitamin D toxicity" by Glenville Jones "Although current data support the viewpoint that the biomarker plasma 25(OH)D concentration must rise above 750 nmol/L to produce vitamin D toxicity, the more prudent upper limit of 250 nmol/L might be retained to ensure a wide safety margin."
@@stanleyyu2079 ok thanks your kind advice with clear ref
Also was your vitamin d level this high because of UV exposure or supplements or sun? Please share your source
Can’t thank you enough Dr John. It was because of you that I started taking Vitamin D back when I first started watching your videos in 2020. Seeing this today reinforced the importance, realizing I’d lapsed it now makes sense why I’ve had one thing after another this past year. Back on my self care including my daily D. I’d also like to thank your very supportive family who give you the time and space needed to produce these videos, when you could be with them.
I live with my family in a VERY sunny city near the equator. All my family and I got sick of colds or caugh 1 or 2 times a year, nothing severe, but every single year we were at least once sick of respiratory issues. 3 years ago I had all tested for vit D. Not surprising we were all in the 8ng/ml-15 range, very very low. I started everyone on 5,000 vit D a day. In those 3 years we have not had one single cold in our family, not once. Yes, we had COVID but the symptoms were not bad at all and we had COVID after many months of taking vit D. I had my test done a few days ago and currently I am at 98 ng ml and taking 10,000 IU a day since maybe 4 months ago. I did not notice any other health benefit other than this dramatic improvement in our respiratory health. Will continue to take vit D forever.
Fasting also helps a great deal with your immune system, and also allows you to make use of your vit D. As a fat soluble vitamin, if insulin is high it tends to remain locked within your fat cells. Some benefits of occasional extended fasting and lowering carbs in the diet: High blood pressure is lowered to normal levels very quickly while fasting. Fibrosis/scarring is reversed over time, including in the heart and lungs. Vitamin D plasma levels are increased as fasting improves metabolic health, and vitamin D in turn increases autophagy. When insulin is high, vit D stays locked in the blood cells. Fasting stimulates phagocytosis, the ingestion plaques, growths and pathogens by the immune system. This will also remove spikes quicker, whether natural or unnatural in origin! Your body recycles up to 1/3 of all immune bodies in a 72h fast, rejuvenating your entire immune system. This helps prevent the onset of new autoimmune conditions, which develop through a leaky gut and damaged immune system. Fasts from 36-96 h increase metabolic rate due to norepinephrine release! Blood clotting is lessened and clots and plaques are removed over time. Fasting restores your circadian rhythm to normal over time. T cells and T reg cells are vital in fighting cancer, autoimmune disease and infections but as we age the thymus stops making as many of them. Fasting releases stem cells, which then can become new T cells. It also releases growth hormone, which regenerates the thymus itself! Fasting restores NAD+ and increases nitric oxide release to open blood vessels. Fasting increases anti-aging Yamanaka factors and increases average telomere length in stem cell pools. Fasting can help with MS, Depression, BPD, Autism and seizures. When you move out of MTOR your body shuts down the building blocks of the cell required for viruses to replicate. The hunger hormone ghrelin also lowers with extended fasting and rises from dieting. What breaks a fast? Anything with protein or carbohydrates in it will break a fast but most teas and herbs are OK. Supplements and meds often break ketosis directly or contain a filler that will. Many meds are dangerous to take while fasting. Does fasting lower testosterone? No, it raises it when the fast is broken by increasing lutenizing hormone. Fasting also increases insulin sensitivity, which helps with muscle building. Fasting activates autophagy (literally self eating). This will cause cells to recycle damaged proteins and foreign matter such as viruses. Lowering insulin via fasting virtually eliminates chronic inflammation in the body. Weight loss from daily caloric restriction has 1/4 to 1/3 of the weight lost as lean tissue while many studies show fat loss from 36 h fasts without losing any lean tissue! The obese will lose loose skin while fasting, but the frail will have increased growth hormone release, which helps to make more lean tissue and reduce frailness. Fasts of 36-96 will not affect short term female fertility or affect menstrual cycle. They also may increase long term fertility for some women. Fasting reduces pain and anxiety by stimulating the endocannabinoid system, just like the effect of CBD oil Just 24h of fasting can cut your leptin levels in half! This reduces leptin resistance, which impairs immune function. Stomach acid is reduced over time while fasting and can allow for the healing of treatment resistant ulcers. Some patients may need continued acid reduction medication while fasting. Your brain also prefers to burn ketones at a rate of around 2.5 to 1 when they are available in equal quantity to glucose. Except for brief periods of very intense exercise, your body mainly burns fats in the form of free fatty acids. It increases mitochondrial function and repairs mitichondrial DNA, leading to improved ATP production and oxygen efficiency. Increased mitochondrial function also has the added benefit of increasing your metabolism, fighting infection and cancer prevention! Fasting releases BDNF and NGF in the blood which stimulates new nerve and brain cell growth. This can help a great deal with diseases like MS, peripheral neuropathy and Alzheimers. When not in ketosis, the brain can only burn carbohydrate, which produces a great deal of damaging ROS the brain has to deal with. Fasting also increases telomere length, negating some of the effects of aging at a cellular level. When you fast, this stimulates apoptosis in senescent or genetically damaged cells, destroying them. Senescent cells are responsible for many of the effects of aging and are a root cause of the development of cancer. A fasting mimicking diet for 3-5 days in a row also provides many of the same benefits as water fasting. FMD usually has 200-800 calories, under 18 g of protein and extremely low carbs. Exogenous ketones can aid with fasting, making it easier in healthy people and allowing some people with specific issues to fast in spite of them without worrying as much about hypoglycemia. They also help with dementia and many other issues even if you take them while not fasting! Glycine and trimethylglycine can also be useful supplements while fasting that won't break ketosis and have many benefits. Children, pregnant or nursing women should not fast for periods longer than 16 hours. People with pancreatic tumors or certain forms of hypoglycemia generally cannot fast at all. Type 1 diabetics can also fast but it is more complicated and should be approached with caution as it could lead to ketoacidosis. If you experience extreme symptoms of some kind, especially dizziness or tremors, then simply break the fast and seek advice.

It's unusual to have low vit D in sunnier climes, it's usually the northern hemisphere, I'm not sure why you had these readings, you would expect it a bit when people with darker skin migrate to the Northern Hemispheres
@@GeoffsPhilsInfo maybe genetics? we are white and my wife and kids were also deficient. My mother and father in laws also deficient as well as many friends that I suggested taking the test. I believe there is much more deficiency as previously thought
thank you for sharing
White skin is more efficient at absorbing Vitamin D@@wren460

I would pay to sit in a university lecture hall and be presented with this quality of information!
Be honest, it's the legs isn't it 😉 😂
Yeah me too. I was riveted to the screen.
Thank you, Dr David Grimes, for contributing to the understanding of a hormone that has benefited my health so greatly for two decades. Without your hard work, we would never have known. An orthopedic surgeon at my hospital made Vitamin D checks a mandatory part of preop visits beginning around 2000. He'd noticed the difference in bones (hard in California, soft in Washington state) and had researched the cause and started a personal effort to educate those around him about Vitamin D. Thank you for this wonderful interview, John. You and Dr Grimes are true, caring advocates for the well-being of all.

I wish Dr Campbell had been treating my mother before Christmas when she collapsed at home while on antibiotics for a UTI. The ambulance took us to Charring Cross A&E ,The Dr said she her bloods were clear and she was dehydrated,put her on a drip for an hour and told me I could take her home. The day after she collapsed again while I was getting her into bed...this time she didn't recover! My mother's GP said she was surprised they didn't take a urine sample and also that her white blood cell count was raised. I feel Dr Campbell would have been alot more thorough and kept her in the hospital.
Dr. John. I would like to thank you from the buttom of my heart for all the videos and information you are giving us. There has just been news in Denmark that a BIG study on the vaccines concluded that they are ABSOLUTE safe to use. They feel the pressure from people like you which reveals the truth about this whole situation.
Yes vaccines are safe. Big studies demonstrate this. There is no such thing as absolute safety, there is always risk. The risk of a vaccine is at most 3 micromorts ( chances in a million) per event. The risk of dying walking to work each day for 3 months is 17 micromorts. Nothing in life is absolutely safe.
I find it interesting how they continue to push it. I hope ppl there know the truth.
What? Safe? What is wrong with these people
Unfortunately alot of people still belive that people like me are tinfoil hat weilders. Even my dad had his fourth booster a few months back unfortunately.@@foreverflowers7753
I’d term it “ news “ with quotes, or f’news (faux news).
I agree with all that's been said, BUT! After finding need for a doctor, I called his surgery. I was told "no appointments this week, call again next Monday" OK, fine. Next Monday, I get an appointment for the following Thursday. My doctor says he is not happy, I need an X-ray. Come back after you have had it. Three weeks later, I call him to explain nothing has happened. "OK, I will re-arrange another appointment." Says my doctor. Ten days later, I had an appointment for an X-ray. A week later, I had the X-ray. I was told to call my doctor for the results. I called and was told he is busy this week, try next week. Next Monday, I get an appointment for the following Thursday. When I see him, he explains that, "The X-rays did not show what I was expecting. The lump has shrunk. Go home, but if it gets worse, don't hesitate to contact me." Eight weeks to be told that I "seem to be getting better." Next time I will call my local vet. Next day SERVICE. Medical advice is now thanks to the internet.
I got the best advice from my vet after coming home from India unwell. The doctor faffed about scratching his head. Useless 😡
Vet 🤣🤣🤣
Actually, that's good advice.
While living in Germany where the service is quite a bit better (not perfect though), even I ask once - jokingly - our cats vet if I qualify to be her patient. She was one of the best docs I experienced. We discussed the treatment on eye level, she was open and explained her thoughts and - I never have seen this in a medical doctor - had print-out of contemporary vetinarian medical papers on her desk. She actually continued to educate herself after finishing university. Unfortunately I wasn't fury enough...
I have been kept waiting for an appointment with an oral surgeon. My case should have been seen within 90 days. It's now 5 months and still no appointment. My situation has worsened drastically over that 5 months. Now all my teeth need to be removed, my condition makes me a special case, my Dentist has told me any changes, I am a walking patient, no appointment needed. I am going to be in real trouble if I develop an infection as I have knee replacements.
Two wonderful doctors who have been around the block a few times and know what they are talking about. Such caring doctors who have their patients best interest at heart. Thank you for all you do and continue to be a voice of truth shining the light on the corruption and greed of the pharmaceutical companies and our government!
Campbell not the type of doctor you are thinking of.
Been taking 30,000iu D3, 400 mcg K2, 600 mg Mag. Glycinate, 10 mg boron daily since last May. Blood level between 100-150 ng/mL. Plus, a host of other supplements. Never felt better.
Cholesterol and blood sugar tests are pushed to get you on Statins and Blood pressure tablets, but Vitamin D tests aren't done because the doctors don't get any kick backs from the pharmaceutical industry.
Blood sugar tests won't lead to blood pressure medicine, but the arm squeezing machine will.
@@user-yr1uq1qe6y. My blood pressure is always spot on but the doctor says I need to be on ramipril 2.5 mg because I had a heart attack 8 years ago. I did a little experiment last year before my annual medical review. I stopped taking them for a month before the review. Blood pressure spot on. 🤔🤔
Vitamin D levels are always included in the yearly blood tests in the US
@@vickitodd8647 They aren't in the UK. Just cholesterol and blood sugars so they can get you on their drugs.
My US insurance wouldn’t pay for the Vitamin D test that the doctor ordered during my routine checkup. January 2024.
I am 78 and have been taking Vitamin D for 25 years. I take Vitamin D3 (125 mcg) with K2 (2100 mcg) and my blood level averages 80 to 100 which is way above normal here in the US. Normal recommendation is above 40. My doctor was upset when I was at 110 so I lowered the dosage. My CRP is .03 which indicates low inflammation. I changed my primary doctor 20 years ago because he did not believe vitamin D level was important! I should add that I still work full time, am not overweight and walk 2 miles per day.
I'm 77 and of similar health. I lost my appetite for 10 days around this Christmas. This had never happened to me before. I had already lost all my fat and worried about losing muscle. I found a good doctor but consultation showed no causes. I felt fine but agreed blood should be drawn (12/26/2023). Two days later her office called me asking to have me stop taking the 5000 IU D/K2 supplement. My appetite quickly returned but the stress my body underwent when it was desperate for fuel was still there. New Year's Eve I went to a party at a resort. At one point I noticed that my leg muscle would start losing the automatic signal to keep me standing. This was short lived but I remember it happening a few times. Then after Midnight I am on the dance floor and all of a sudden I collapsed even though I was not dizzy. I got right back up on my feet but now scared. All January I suffered from chronic fatigue and brain fog. The middle of the month I finally made it to the YMCA and my additional muscle loss was confirmed. I also finally accessed the complete analysis of my blood taken on the day after Christmas. My D level was 103, all my hemoglobin and RBC results showed I was still quite anemic as always, but my C reactive protein was 23 and I didn't even know I had an infection!! Then I saw Dr. Campbell's interview with the retired Australian researcher on Ivermectin and Covid. I had taken the two Moderna shots 3 years ago. I went to the local livestock supply store and bought a tube of Ivermectin gel, sufficient to deworm a 1250 pound horse, for just $8. I believe my high CRP was due to a viral infection in my gut. I have been taking it daily ever since. I feel better than I have in 3 years. Ever since my vaccinations, I thought all my dysfunction was the result of stress dealing with a collapsing society, the need on moving, loneliness and the censorship when I tried to speak out. Now I have a lot of energy and my brain is functioning better every day (I made and use a high intensity NIR helmet).
Love your response!
The recommended levels labs use are flat out wrong and way too low. Those levels might prevent rickets, but that’s about it. 80-100 is great. Good on you.
Where do u get your vitamin D?
That is awesome! Just goes to show that modern day doctors are nothing more than Big Pharma shills. This world needs millions of physicians like Dr Campbell and Dr Grimes.
Every G P and hospital doctor should be made to watch and learn from this interview .

For everyone taking vitamin D don’t forget to take magnesium. Because magnesium is needed for vitamin D to get activated. And if you are vitamin D deficient you are most likely already magnesium deficient
Very good 🍀

Unscripted, natural, educational, authentic and a highly accessible conversation between two amazing minds. Dr Campbell, much gratitude for all you do!
Don't know about unscripted, they were talking in a language I could understand instead of medical speak.Brilliant none the less.☺
I’m in Australia and I’ve started taking 4000 a day of D as the sun is so fierce and sunscreen means hard to absorb naturally A wonderful talk as usual from two hero’s 🏴🇬🇧🏴
Thank God for good people who do the right thing because it's the right thing. These guys have helped so many by just pursuing the truth.
Hospitals/doctors will test you for anything there is an expensive pharmaceutical drug for, but if there is nothing in it for the system, you will find it extremely hard to get a test for it.
That makes complete sense. They'd rather wait until a person's low D allows one or more diseases take hold and then you can have expensive procedures, tests and Rx's.
So. Keeping Julian Assange in solitary confinement for 23 hours a day is tantamount to a long, drawn out death sentence? Any doctors want to volunteer to go get his vitamin D levels please? 😢
He was kept in solitary confinement during the daytime and only allowed out when the others were locked back up and it was dark outside, they were actually hoping he would get Covid but being in solitary he never met anybody so survived but he is VERY WHITE and has been for many years probably with osteopenia now. They are out to kill him ‘naturally’.
Be the cause if depression too.
I don't do needles I'm afraid, so I have edged my bets and have been taking 5000 ius daily for months now and feel great. Haven't used my asthma inhaler since taking it nether. This information is so powerful and a real eye opener. Thank you both so much.
Prior to the worldwidebug I was already taking above “recommended” Zinc and D3 for its health benefits. When the bug arrived I only got sick once even though I worked the entire time as a Fire EMS worker who also staffed an ambulance. I didn’t go get tested, but my symptoms matched other coworkers symptoms, so I just stayed home until I felt better…about 5 days.
Obviously depends on diet too. I used to get sick 3 to 4 times a year. I went zero carb and haven't got sick once in the last 5 years. So it's not just what you consume, it's what you don't consume.
Started low/no carb in January and feel so much healthier Also learning now that removal of seed oil etc means your skin won’t burn as easy
Carnivore for a year. Similar story. Was ill all the time. Haven't been ill since. 5 stone weight loss has been good to
Zero carbs eh..im the opposite, offgrid and eat a lot of spuds, havent seen a dr since 2012 and not been ill since. It gos to show were all different eh.
Where did you find that piece of interesting information re sun burn and seed oil ?
@@user-kh9le7sq5s I think it is clear, from all the contradictory observations regarding diet, that diet isn't the heart of the problem. I wouldn't be surprised, if the "offgrid" aspect isn't playing a bigger role than the "spuds".

Wow! I considered myself well versed in D3 as a layperson...until I watched this. Learned so many new things about D3. Thanks to both of you!

I've taken 15,000IU of vitamin D per day for over ten years. I use it as a mood stabilizer. Without it during winter months I got very anxious and depressed. But using it I feel absolutely fine. So the health benefits are just a bonus to that.
Interesting. I suffer a lot with SAD in the winter, so will try this.
Thank you old school Drs.! Old school science is NUMBER ONE!
Dr Holick is still alive. You should interview him. He is a great Vitamin D pioneer...
Hector de Luca has been instrumental in Vit D research, still with us at 94 !
Prof. Holick is the expert in Vit D
Fantastic interview. I cannot understand why the mainstream elements of the health service does not get this on board. I can understand funding for some of the regularity bodies comes from the pharmaceutical industry, but with the financial strain on health service (in the UK), the widespread use of vitamin D could not only be a life saver, but also cut a significant burden on the health service and its long term cost. Amazing the government does not act, perhaps a petition to get this debated might be effective.
The government members, as obvious during the pandemic, have much to gain pushing medication as it is big business. Also, having too many people living long lives will cost money.
Not an accident or oversight that use of vitamin D is being supressed. It is on purpose.

In New Zealand, seniors can get cholecalciferol capsules 1.25mg prescribed by their doctor, to be taken once a month, or in winter twice a month. I have been taking this for several years and have rarely got any flu-like symptons. I am now 81 and still living independently.
I watched this video THREE times in 3 days! Great interview, great people who are holding the world on their shoulders. Very grateful to Dr Campbell and Dr Grimes and Dr David Anderson.
What I heard on Dr. Mercola's podcast when discussing vitamin D at length is that sunburn is caused by seed oils consumption among many other detrimental side effects that seed oils consumption brings. They're one of the most detrimental compounds you can ingest and staying away from them is one of the most essential things you can do when trying to improve your health or to stay healthy ❤ Much love and respect to all doctors who aim to heal the patient😊 instead of poisoning them with chemistry and masking their symptoms 😢
Yes, this is true because people following the Carnivore diet do NOT get sunburned!! (we don't eat seed oils)
It is not the seed oil . It is us seed oil. We don't have this problem in Europe.
What a great conversation! Two elderly gentlemen speaking the truth! I watched the whole thing.
1 IU (International Unit) of vitamin D is the daily requirement for a 10g mouse = fiction. Using vitamin D mouse data to advise humans = fiction. Establishing 60kg person needs 6,000 IU/d then advising 3,000 IU/d for six months = fiction. Vitamin D levels do not go above around 150 nmol/L = fiction. 20,000 IU is generally speaking a week’s supply = fiction. I think Dr David Grimes is unscientific and misleading in answering the question how much vitamin D should I take. Did anyone listening to this have a good idea how much vitamin D they should take or did they find his advice confusing?
A staggeringly important video. Show it everywhere!
Amazing chat with two very learned Men of medicine , so glad I tuned in. 👍👏👏👏👍
Immediately trust these two, as a 70 year-old man... Two maturing gentleman, per rules of attire, their socks falling down revealing a cheeky bit of skin. Though female listeners may struggle with focus, calming their racing hearts. Well played gentlemen! The important and helpful information shared is just "icing on the cake." Thank you for your ongoing efforts to heal a sick World, sir(s). PS I just realized the flash of skin may have additional motive...that skin indicating exposure to skin to sun (or lack thereof) is perhaps a hint to need of Vitamin D supplementation.
Love this, sitting here giggling.

Geeeeeez
Hahaha!!
lol noted! 😂
This chubby old (79) guy with COPD found out how important Vitamin D is in 2019 when I had pneumonia. In the first 24hrs of hospitalization, my Vitamin D level was tested three times so I understood that it must be very important. Surviving the pneumonia and not ever wanting a reoccurrence I started boosting my D level from its 20-30 (50-75) historic level up to 50 (125). I reached that goal by the time covid appeared by taking 4,000iu D3 daily. By this time, having learned how important Vitamin D was for covid immunity, I raised my goal to 70-80 (175-200) and my daily dose to 6,000iu. Following the FLCCC I-Mask+ protocol throughout the pandemic I also supplemented with Vitamins C & K2, Magnesium, Zinc, Melatonin, and weekly Ivermectin. I was infected with Covid three times with positive tests twice. None of these infections were significant, just head congestion, headache, sore throat, and none lasted longer than 36 hours. Combining Vitamin D with Ivermectin provides a safe and powerful weapon against serious infections and yes, cancer.
Vit D yes, Ivermectin absolutely NOT!
@@tcoopr2 How can you say not when my friends and I have a 100% success rate crushing viral infections with Ivermectin? I should mention we are all 75 or older. Put your head in the sand if you want, there is no downside with Ivermectin. Now, there is lots of evidence emerging that it can also treat cancer. It checks all the right boxes, safe, effective, and cheap.
@@tcoopr2there are many who would disagree with you on saying no to ivermectin. Many swear by it.
@@kmsongbird Some people swear by the tooth fairy and the 4 leaf clover. Please consult the data and real science: www.covid19treatmentguidelines.nih.gov/tables/ivermectin-data/
Best lecture I’ve seen in a long while. A mere “Thank you,” doesn’t express my gratitude, John and David.
i just love to listen to two people .(seasoned Doctors) that know what they are talking about and that are in the business of getting and keeping people HEALTHY.. thank you for answering all questions with knowledge and common sense...very refreshing!

As kids back in the 1940s &50s, we were given Cod liver Oil everyday throughout the long winters. I remember longing for summer to come so we wouldn't have to take it with its horrible taste. I will say that it did see us safely through measels, mumps, chicken pox and all the other childhood diseases that we all had.
It’s funny because I’m telling my mom in her sixties to take cod liver oil. And her mother used to give her cod liver oil when they were sick. I’m not letting her off the hook just because she’s older than me. 😂
Back to basics. Works every time.@@living2day617
I ate mosttly vegan and just did sunbathing for vitamin d. Not been sick in years.
The vast majority of us made it through those diseases.
Also, they used to deworm us biannual.
Best explanation of the theory of constant inflammation causing most disease I've ever heard. 🙂👍
I watched this in segments and now I want to watch the whole thing again! Thank you Dr Grimes & Dr J for a fascinating teaching. Keep them coming please…
Just a brilliant interview, thank you both so much.
Dr John, you’re a generous, patient, outgoing listener 😊
And a con artist
How is that? @@akaWooders
@@monetarnie3841 "How is that?" Because Campbell constantly lies, misleads, misrepresents, misinterprets, types out extracts (not showing the original) so that he can cherry pick data and phrases and omit others to contradict the findings of studies, truncates graphs and omits others, uses fake outrage and leading questions, commits fraud on the UK yellow card scheme, claims a conference extract (discussion paper) is a WHO official document because it's on their database when it's nothing of the sort, contradicts himself, says he's "happy to debate anyone" but doesn't. I could go on and on, the list is endless. I have a list of over 60 videos showing examples of each of the above deceptions that his acolytes have fallen for. His modus operandi is to type out extracts from papers to show his audience, that way he can leave out words to skew the author's intent or not show the conclusion, which frequently contradicts the message he is giving in his video. He never shows the original document, why do you think that is? In his recent video about the ONS's change in methodology for the baseline of excess deaths, Campbell only showed a sheet of equations not the nine page explanation from the ONS. This was a deliberate attempt to paint the ONS as deceptive when it is Campbell who is duplicitous. John's PhD (which is actually in teaching via digital methods, including the internet, (put simply, a doctorate in media studies)), his grandfatherly appearance means that he appears honest and trustworthy and his gullible audience are taken in by his misinformation. Make no mistake; misinformation costs lives. Why does John do this? Fame and fortune is the obvious conclusion as he has made c£1m in each of 2022 and 2023. This can be checked in the accounts of Campbell Teaching Ltd on Companies House.
I could listen to these two ol' gents sit and read the phone book to each other and enjoy every minute. All the better that they convey such important and meaningful content.

THANK YOU BOTH so much for this really informative presentation. After a severe case of work burnout in 1993 & accompanying Hashimotos, CFS and fibromyalgia, in '95 I shifted to Brisbane. Some years later, around 2003 I learned of a doctor who may be able to help me recover, so I made an appointment. He was at the time considered a renegade by endocrinologists. However, as part of my treatment, he insisted on aiming for a Vit D level between 100 & 150, while the recommended 'good' level was 90. I am so glad for that advice, as I have maintained high supplementation ever since, and this has obviously been a major contributor to my healthy immune system, along with fairly rapid recovery after each of 8 operations I have had over the last 8+ years.
Omg, two of the greatest physicians that I have the Honor to witness, this is a Historical discussion. Cheers, from San Diego Ca.
Great discussion about vitamin D and great that Dr. Grimes was willing to join Dr. Campbell to share his expertise. Thank You!

Dr. Campbell, you'd be surprised, but I had read a couple of your books, as a child. My mother was a medical transcriptionist, so there were medical books, medical dictionaries and such , around and I always loved new knowledge. Thank you, for all your time and knowledge that you are spreading. I'm so glad that you started hearing the questions, that were blatantly ignored. (Hell! Straight-up stomped out.) Bless you, Sir.
Wow, a HUGE thank you to both these doctors especially Dr Grimes who has a wealth of knowledge on the subject of vitamin D. Didn’t think I’d last over one hour of this interview but I couldn’t waste missing one word of it, it was informative and easy to follow. My husband is in Spain right now and I’ve told him to bring back a bucket load of Calcifediol on his return to the UK 🇬🇧
Excellent info Johnny boy!! This Calcifidiol product is a revelation indeed. Thank you for informing us.
The lesson of what this doctor is saying is bring back calcefediol vit d from Spain and if going to hospital for an operation , bring thrm with you but don't tell hospital staff!
I am going this month and will definitely get some. Disgraceful that it's only available here in the UK for farm animals. Says it all really...
You are starting to understand the corruption in healthcare, now look into IV vitamin C, and ask why this is also not available mainstream, especially as part of a sepsis protocol.
I believe Dr Pierre Kory and Dr Paul Marik have a very successful protocol for sepsis using IV. Vitamin C ,hydrocortisone and Thiamine.
@@noelwaller4345that is correct! Dr. Paul Marik was the first one, who test a very high dose of Vitamin C, together with two small ingredients when he diagnosed a Woman with sepsis and starting multi organ failures. Without this intervention she would be died over night. Next morning, when Dr. Marik enters her Room, she was sitting in her bad, an three days later she can go home. After this first unbelievable success, he had used his Protokoll with 100 patients and only four passed away by multi-morbidity. Then he starts to talk about his multiple successes. The BigPharma System is fighting against him and his Protokoll, but he is the only one who is able to cure a sepsis in nearly every stadium. 8 Million die every year around the world!!!! Let’s promote Dr. Marik’s Protokoll!!
Oh my! I'm so glad I decided not to bail due to length of video and sat through the whole thing...mind blowing and oh so educational!
Thank you Dr. Grimes and Dr. Campbell, this is just what I needed to hear about!

On the topic of Vitamin K2: According to my understanding, Vitamin D is a transcription factor for - among others - the so-called Vitamin K depend proteins like osteocalcin and matrix GLA protein. These proteins need Vitamin K2 for so-called post-transcripional carboxylation, where carboxylic groups are added by the Vitamin K2 in order to make them fully functional. As with high D levels the concentration of these proteins are upregulated, so Vitamin K2 is used up. If the double carboxylated osteocalcin is missing, the calcium can't be fixated in the bones, stays in the blood resulting in hypercalcinemia. So adequate Vitamin K2 prevents this by activation of the osteocalcin and matrix GLA protein (which removes the calcium from the soft tissue). So adding 100 mcg Vitamin K2 per day to your 5000IU Vitamin D3 is a good idea (that's what I do). Plus the K2 ramps up the proteins S and C, both are expressed in the blood vessels endothelium and are antithrombotic molecules. Isn't the human body amazing?
Thank you! I take 100 mcg k-2 MK7 with every 10,000 IU vit D. I have always wondered if I was taking enough K-2 with the 10,000 IU d-3.
Absolutely loved this. It was like coffee morning with you two... so interesting and such common sense spoken.
Thank you Dr. Grimes for inviting us into your living room and to Dr. Campbell for facilitating this. I greatly appreciate this friendly but informative chat. How refreshing and I have learned much!
This is, without any doubt , the most illuminating discussion I have ever witnessed on KZhead. Thank you so much. ❤

Thank you for your hospitality Dr. Grimes. Thank you both for this excellent conversation.
Thank you for clearing this up John. So many people have wanted to know how much, and what type. cheers!
Fascinating discussion on such an important topic ....thank you both ❤
Patty hadju, Canada health minister at the time, was calling Derek Sloan(mp) a conspiracy theorist for recommending higher vitamin D levels were good to fight the infection
As with Diabetes why why haven’t companies not developed a vit D meter similar to where a small spot of blood on a strip and a reading given similar to the accu-check for diabetes
Did you know that you can cure type 2 diabetes, just by eating red meat and eggs only. Lots of vegetarians with health issues, that went on a carnivore diet, accidentally discovered this.
Great interview, learnt loads. Absolutely criminal that D levels not checked as a routine especially on admission to hospital. I was in hospital 18 months ago with hospital acquired sepsis, no D check but luckily my level which I had checked privately was in the optimum range
This was so massively interesting and important. I've been taking vit D for a couple of years . Thank you both so very much.
It is mind boggling how Vit D deficiency is ignored by a lot of medical professionals
With Vit C....because they would end up with low incomes
The system won't work if everyone is healthy! Where's the fun and money in that?
全球仅有几十个有良知、有正义感、有无私医德的医学家。There are only a few dozen medical scientists in the world who have conscience, a sense of justice, and selfless medical ethics.
Nog niet eerder zo een interessant en inhoudelijk zo een sterke discussie gezien. Dank u wel voor het delen .
I am grateful every day for the knowledge you and your guests share with us Dr. John.
