Universal mask wearing might make mild or asymptomatic disease more likely
A form of “variolation”
Inoculation
Generate immunity and thereby slow the spread of the virus
Viral shedding from the noses and mouths of patients, presymptomatic or asymptomatic
Shedding rates equivalent to those among symptomatic patients
SARS -1
A strong relationship between public masking and pandemic control
SARS - CoV - 2
Recent virologic, epidemiologic, and ecologic data
Hypothesis that facial masking may also reduce the severity of disease among people who
do become infected
Long-standing theory of viral pathogenesis
Severity of disease is proportionate to the viral inoculum received
Typical rate of asymptomatic infection, estimated to be 40% by the CDC in mid-July,
Settings with universal facial masking, 80%
Also less severe and less deaths

I personnally have been taking 6000 IU of Vitamin D since I begun listening to you Dr. John. The results are nothing short of remarkable. First of all my immunity is working much better, my low level inflammation has basically vanished, and my muscles feel much more flexible. But the biggest difference is with my mental health as I find it much easier to relax and letting go of my anxiety. Of course I know that this is anecdotal evidence, but for me it has made a real difference.
God Bless!
No it’s true it will help with anxiety and depression. Magnesium also is great for anxiety/depression etc
thats good to hear. I have been a user for decades and take 10000iu in winter along with k2 mk7 and magnesium and a host of other vitamins and minerals. Look up Niacin for anxiety. I take it instead of anti depressants. so much better. go to www.doctoryourself.com and look up depression and anxiety. wonderful site. Do you also get your blood tested every year. I do and i like them over 150mmol/l
20 minutes of exposing 80% of your body in the sun, no sunblock filter, for 15 minutes , your skin will produce 10.000IU of vitamin D3 - that is the daily recommended dosis
I take 6000 IUs for 2 years now (level stays at about 60 ng/ml/90kg bodyweight)
I personally take 5,000IU a day and recent doc had a checkup with a blood test and asked them to check my vitamin D level, well I'm happy to report doc said they were awesome and right where it needs to be.
me too
Did he give you a figure?

Thnx. RN here. 66 yo. Euro. Raised near Canada border. Started out at very low D3. Have slipped into osteo arthritis. Now taking 50,000 IU D3 per week per Rx. Recent lab up to 41...this took three years. Happy with this. Keep vigilant. ❤
My first daughter was born in 1968 (52 years ago). At that time, when I went to the baby clinic, I was given a small dropper bottle of Vitamins A&D. This was added ( a few drops a day) to the baby formula as standard. They obviously knew 52 years ago that Vitamin D was important to us all.
Yes, but only about the rickets side of things.
Breastmilk does not contain vitamin d and so babies are recomended to supplement..
All from the 70’s AD-drops were given for free to parents of children up to the age of 5 in Sweden. They have changed it now to only being Vitamin D and only for children up to the age of 2.
First of all, lots of food items are today enriched with Vitamin A. Second the type of Vitamin A often used in supplements which is animalic (retinol) can cause osteoperosis, weakness of the bones which is totally contraproductive.
It’s much better to get your Vitamin A from a healthy diet containing caroten (yes, the stuff from carrots).That’s the plant based Vitamin A source which does not have these adverse effects.
@@tamifinnigan4661 That doesn't make sense to me ... how would they have gotten it throughout evolution?
Vitamin A and D are antagonists. It doesn't make any sense to take a combo.

I love you for addressing this topic. My wife has been diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis and has suffered permanent damage from it, but the disease has been in remission for three years since she was treated with high doses of vitamin D according to the #coimbraprotocol This substance is extremely important and no one should be deficient to prevent permanent damage.
So glad to hear she is improving on the Coimbra Protocol. Have read extensively on it.

I started to take vitamin D because of coronavirus craze (I know it's serious illness but I am tired from lockdown). I take little doze as on the instruction. And I was surprised but my depression ended. I live in the north, in Siberia, and I guess vitamin D deficiency is widespread here. My mom broke her arm, her bones are easily brokebele because of vitamin D deficiency. Thanks, doctor
I'm on the same latitude (60 degrees north approximately) and vitamin D deficiency is a real threat up here in wintertime (sun rises around 9 a.m. and sets at 3 p.m in December, and is very weak in winter = no vitamin D).
Traditional diets in such northern latitudes included large intakes of liver, fatty fish, and blubber and seal meat - all high in vitamin D, Cod liver oil, eggs, and liver are good sources and cheap too. With a good amount of green leafy vegetables like cabbage, kale, and brussel sprouts, etc. You'll get vitamin K which regulates vitamin D too. My mother used to dose us with Cod Liver Oil and Vitamin C tablets for coughs and colds. Now, I understand why.
Vitamin D and C are what you need
@@BigHenFor Nobody eat those traditional diets anymore, nowadays it's mostly about things you pick up from the supermarket! Tacos is a very popular dish, for example.
Lelu what daily dose do you take?
Thank you Dr. John, and thank you, Mrs. Campbell for your behind the scenes support. Things like Dr. John's vitamin D recommendations do get talked about. Word if mouth spreads the good information. So more people are benefitting than just those of us who are watching the videos. 😊🤗😼🌍🌎🌏🚸
I'm a 56 yo fairly light skinned female living in northern NY state (think dark, cold and 125 inches of snow yearly :p). My doctor tests all patients annually for vitamin D levels because deficiency is so common here. My levels have typically come back at the low end of the normal range, probably because I eat eggs and fish daily, but after starting 2000 IU daily, a couple years ago (take it in the morning) my vitamin D levels have been great, and I believe I get fewer of the winter viruses that float around here....
God Bless!
this is go bizarre: why have you decided to take only 2,000 iu, while it's so plainly obvious that ~5,000 iu would bring your levels not to 'low end of normal', but to excellent or optimized levels. Did your doctor tell you to do that?

@@tmo.48 so did I ask you for advice? No. Why did you barge in? I guess for the same reason that I made my prior comment. You wanted to say something. Good for you. Don't try to shut people down who you don't share opinion with.
George Harris -ok 🤐
My hat off to you for being honest and courageous in speaking out.
The reason they didn’t encourage mask wearing early on was because they didn’t have a good supply and needed the masks for medical folks. So of course that was completely contradictory. But instead they should have been saying immediately that masks would be helpful, but in order to save them for our medical staff- make your own.
In reality, what they said was nothing short of a lie.
I totally agree ... they have totally undermined trust and made a very bad decision.
@@theeggtimertictic1136 if you roll back the clock to March both the government and WHO didn't advise wearing masks because there was no strong science behind them being effective and lots of failed medical trials over the previous decade since SARS.
The advice is changing at the same rate as the treatments, because there is a whole lot more data available.
@@nicktodd5294 Yes possibly but also because there was a shortage.

Great work Dr. John Campbell!
My doctor has had me on V-D3 for 3 years. He is much like you in kindness and knowledge on a personal level!
I take 2000IU per day in the summer and 3000IU in Winter and have done for 10 years and have not had a cold of flu since, I also walk out every day and walk about 20 miles minimum a week.
I used to suffer 1 or 2 colds per year and 1 Flu effect every couple of years, I had SARS-CoV1 back in 2003 which I caught in China town London!
We need to get our blood levels up to 40ng/ml (30ng/ml minimum) and checking blood levels are best carried out in the winter months when D is low.
How do you take Vit D? Orally? Ive seen in that way one wouldd have to take lots of capsules.
I've taken it for years but have still had colds because I have young grandchildren LOL!
@@luiggidecaro1621 You can get 3000IU or 4000IU in a single capsule fairly easily.
Well My one a day doesn’t even cover that 5uq is about 100, but I rely on cornflakes and rice Krispes and the sun. ☺️
I tested low for Vitamin D, and started taking 2,000IU daily, and still testing low for Vitamin D. Increasing the dosage to 3,000IU helped, but I live in the Pacific northwest and there's not much sunlight. When I contracted COVID-19 I suspect one of the reasons why I survived the infection was the very fact that I had been taking the larger dose of Vitamin D. I have now increased that dosage to the findings revealed by John's tenacious research.
I've been taking vitamin D (125 mcg), since you first stated.... husband and I have not been sick. Thank you for all your hard work.
"go to your doctor and get a test for vitamin d levels"
Have you tried going to see a gp recently? There's no way they would let you anywhere near the gp surgery for something like a vitamin d levels test in the current pandemic situation.
Very true!
I know, like I said, I'm not going to be pattering off to my busy GP, requesting to know the level of D in my blood. He's out to lunch on that suggestion - at least in a Canadian context.
I just got mine tested. It was 41 ng/ml and I take about 2000 iu/day. I'm in the US and had to get a blood test for multiple things.
I use the VA, they just send you to the lab. Then you get the dose you need. Might not need to see a doctor at all, just the referral to the lab. At least, that’s is how it works here for me. Husband private medical care, works the same way. Good luck.
True. It would take 6 weeks for a routine appointment before this even started!
No problem John, and thank you for going out of your way to dig these things up and translating them into bite size and understandable language... It is much appreciated !

Let’s bet the Chinese have had a cure if they did this on purpose! You know their philosophy regarding people they do not like!
It is just a good odd that you were right.
Because in general, initial loads affect the severity, everybody knows that. However, there are many other infections, especially the slow growth, likes leprosy, malaria, or the aggressive and deadly ones, likes Ebola, cholera, tetanus, rabies, prions-infection, that the severity depends on the reaction of the immune system and the strains of the pathogen, not the initial loads (providing that they got enough number to successfully infect the hosts).
Second, nobody said that vitamin D plays no role in the severity of any infection, if the patients are in deficiency, let alone COVID-19. The dispute is, at what level the medical community should agree on as adequate to support a fully functional immune system.
Conclusions: Our findings do not support a potential link between vitamin D concentrations and risk of severe COVID-19 infection and mortality.
Recommendations for vitamin D supplementation to lessen COVID-19 risks may provide false reassurance.
The evidence for vitamin D supplementation is plagued by the use of small, poor-quality trials.
high-quality, high-level evidence for supplementation is frequently lacking. Vitamin D may prove to be a good surrogate for general well-being.

Such an intelligent man I have been watching dr John since January 21st such a wealth of knowledge I have received carry on dr thank you Dave from Liverpool uk
Thank you so much in advocating for the use of vitamin D3 and the suggestion about the incidents in the vulnerable groups who are likely to catch COVID19. My hematologist friend in the Far East has explained to me a decade ago the reason why so many are vitamin D deficient - even for those living between the Tropics. In the US holistic doctors have been advocating for 5000 iu per day for a LONG time according to your age and weight. It is of course safer to have our 25(OH)D3 level checked regularly. I have mine done in the summer and winter to adjust for sun exposure etc. Our teacher Dr Norm Shealy (founder of the American Holistic Medical Association) at our institute told us about it since the beginning of this century. He even advocated the doses to cover for H1N1 exposure and we have had patients on ECMO because of the disease and we were well covered and everyone was fine. In the UK we are not so well informed ... We are all covered where we work with Vitamin D3 (I take it with vitamin K2 as advised by Dr Shealy for synergy). It's about how much we have been informed and be open-minded. Vitamin D3 is a great immuno-modulator.
You are a God-send... youre keeping us well informed, and that means a lot less stress, we'll it does for me... and I love the science, you explain it so well... I feel as if im in lectures again sometimes, which I love! Thank you Dr C, yore a 🌟

My vitamin D intake is halfway between a Campbell and a Fauci dose!
Good balance (4000)
Lol that is what I take.
Paula Van den Broeck same here too, have done since March
I've been taking 10,000/day for about 8 years and my blood level is good (72)
Same here
High doses of VitD can cause calcification.
@@sallygardiner7150
I think it has to be 30-40 thousand iu's a day or higher
@@sallygardiner7150 Watch the video of Dr. Heany that I posted in my comment above. He shows that there is no toxicity (hypercalcemia) at intakes below 30,000 IU/day. That's a lot higher than the intakes he recommends or that other people have reported they're taking here. Here's the link again: czcams.com/video/B9SNfrE7P1s/video.html which jumps right to the study on toxicity (excess calcium levels).
10,000 is a bit on the high end
THANK YOU SIR. Your information seems very factual and unbiased. I take 2000 IU Vitamin D daily but, I believe I will double that. THANK YOU SOOO MUCH for what you do and your information. I would be VERY appreciative of a short video on masking. Best type, etc.
Brilliant! I just ad my tea with you Doc and loved listening to you. Thanks
I take 3000 iu daily. Stay well everyone
If only it was that simple
@@brad3378 yes, if only.
And you.
@@brad3378
Indications are, it is.
I take 3000iu a day also that keeps my Vitamin D levels in the moderate/high range. I did reduce the dose but my levels went down.
My insurance lapsed back in the spring and LabCorp billed me $1400 for a vitamin D test. Medicare for all.
I paid about $200 in the UK for private blood tests - 45 blood markers tested for and a detailed doctors report on the results.
Not sure where you are but here in Arizona it is $45 to have a test done without a doctors note or insurance via labcorp and Sonora quest
Refuse to pay.
@@nicoledburns82
Seems as though somebody got screwed?
@@rogerstarkey5390 I dont know where they live but it should not cost that much for vitamin d testing.
I think this vid is the best yet on vaccination! Thanks Dr. John for your explanation. It rather reminds me of my Biology teacher Arnold Darlington, who managed to make the most arcane lecture fascinating.
He broke the details down just like your. He even explained osmosis to a thirteen year old, using a school-board and sheer brilliant enthusiasm ... with chalk on carbon paint, board to board till you had three or four going along. He was a genius, and so {if I may venture a compliment] are you!!!!
Thanks for your brilliant work, which is so full of natural warmth and apparent complete comprehension.
Best wishes from George
PS: Stay to the end? How could we not! Thanks.
Thank you for the continued updates Dr.!
Love this man always spot on with his advice ❤️❤️❤️
He has fabricated a FAKE email from Dr. Fauci via Sweden/Finnish conman Kari Hjelt, supposedly taken 6000 IU of vitamin D per day,
Most people can spot spelling errors with day, time and date (for example 3.07 should be 03:07).
He has now encouraged people to take LARGE HARMFUL doses! What a shame!
I take 'Caltrate 600+D3 with minerals'; D3 800 IU, Calcium 600 mg, Magnesium 50 mg, Zinc 7.5 mg, Copper 1 mg, Manganese 1.8 mg, Boron 250 mcg, as recommended by my oncologist to maintain bone health since I have been on Androgen Deprivation Therapy for over 7 years for prostate cancer. Working well according to labs and scans.
Just an FYI....Caltrate is made with calcium carbonate that is very hard to absorb in your body. Citracal is what you want to be taking. It's easily absorbable with or without food and contains all the necessary minerals except K2.
But, "Jarrow's Bone-up" is the best of all the calcium supplements you can buy on the market. It's in powder form inside a capsule. Contains all the minerals (D3, K2, Boron, Copper, magnesium, etc) necessary to transfer calcium to your bones and the areas it needs to be without depositing it in soft tissues.
Don't take supplements without asking a REAL doctor! czcams.com/video/mowRZeczqtc/video.html
@@sunniva5335 'Real doctors' know very little regarding nutrition, hence why so many of them are overweight and unhealthy. I personally would not trust any doctor for nutritional advice. Also, your posts are very irritating and ill informed.
@@GlobalAdventurer due to another medical condition I need to take medication with food, so according to my very experienced oncologist, who treats mostly prostate cancer, calcium carbonate is the better choice. He follows a protocol of diet and dietary supplements with medical treatment.
@@johnnycolon3208 unless those "real doctors" have made it part of their practice for over 20 years.
I can only imagine that the people that have disliked your videos must struggle with scientific concepts and terminology. I think you have explained these papers well. Knowing that I have had a Vit D deficiency I have just ordered my new supply. Thanks for your discussion.
Cannot say how highly I respect and appreciate the real work that Dr John has done with regard to the worldwide information. Regarding the level of respect of the publishers of the information and digging out the pertinent data and any related issues. I still think he has earned a Nobel Prize for Medicine for this work.
"Winter is coming" best delivered line in the video 😂
So you send your child to school, he wears a mask at school. He gets a little sick, or no symptoms at all but when he is home he has no mask on. So, the family gets a huge dose of infection, and gets very sick or dies. Sounds like a vector to me. This whole thing sucks.
1958johndeere620 not being asked to wear masks in school
Why would family get "very sick and die"? Under 50 years chance of dying is LESS than a flu. Are you being unnecessarily scared shi*less?
@@ms-jl6dl My point is most people are not going to wear masks in their houses, I'm not. So if someone in the house has the infection then the other residents are going to get a higher dose of the infection. And yes I do worry about it. I have had several chest infections over the years and have scar tissue on my lungs. I get pleurisy in my lungs and it sucks. I think that gives me the right to be concerned jackass.
Great work! Dr John Campbell, my girlfriend has been diagnosed with covid 19 and I am waiting for my test results, we have decided to take vitamin D to boost our immune systems during this process. I will be taking 2800 IU maybe more not sure at this point, as well trying to sit on my balcony during mid day. I really appreciate the work you have done during this pandemic, you are definitely helping people. All the best in the UK, I'm here in Vancouver BC were cases are rising like most places in the world. All the best.
Always a pleasure to watch and listen all the way until the end. Thank you 🙏
Also remember Dr. Fauci looks to be about 5' 4" and maybe 120 lbs...and he's taking 6000 IU!! So if your closer to 200 lbs, the dose could be changed accordingly.
You can take more. There are no documented side effects. I take 50,000 units with 5,000 mcgs of K2.
You must take K2 with vitamin D otherwise calcium will be deposited where you don't want it. You do not want your arteries calcified. And please don't take calcium supplements or fortified foods and milk. That calcium is not the right kind and can be very dangerous over time if you drink too much milk.
@@katherinebrady6296 Very good point about the need to take K2 if you are taking high amounts of D. I haven't heard Dr. John mention this. Did I miss it somehow?
@@caspasesumo no. He needs to mention this. It's highly important. All vitamins work together. That's why healthy food and getting outdoors for sun is best instead of supplements
@@katherinebrady6296 People need to be more conscious and fully informed when taking these clearly toxic amount of vitamin D daily. There are tons of well documented incidences regarding high doses vitamin D supplements likes yours. You don't see them does not mean they are not existed somewhere in the literatures.
Please, for the sake of your own health, stop being crazy and misinformed by taking this amount. Go back to a reasonable acceptable doses around 3,000 - 6,000 IU daily, regardless of your BMI or health conditions, and your body will thank you for that.
@@hn5460 the doctors even administer 50,000 units daily. Please show documentation. My brother takes 50,000 units a day. There's nothing wrong with that as long as you take your vitamin k2 as well.
Even the doctors give the covid patients 20,000 units of vitamin D. Dr Been reported a case study showing significant effects of vitamin D. This is a difference between life and death. No patients died who were administered 20,000 units of vitamin D.
Vitamin D is king! Thank you for continuing to stress the importance of this vitamin. I also try to get about 15 mins of 🌞 daily. Feels great✌️
Thank you, Dr. Campbell, as always, for your very clear and valuable reporting.
Thank you for your efforts to help us understand. I greatly appreciate your time and knowledge. I always listen to the end. 👍
Get a Vitamin D level test done? Good luck with that on the NHS at the moment unless you've presented with clear deficiency symptoms.
I had mine done during Lock down, just phone and tell them what you want, Dr won't see you but they will volunteer a nurse who will
If you are willing to pay £29 a laboratory test is available here www.vitamindtest.org.uk/ I use this lab 2-3 times a year and find it a very good service. Results are emailed to you around 2 weeks after they receive your blood sample. Results are in nMol/L and also tell you which category you are in. I find it's a much better way to find out your levels than approaching your doctor who are generally a right pain in the posterior about allowing you a blood test. The way I look at it £29 is sod ole now and again to ensure I have a good level. It's less than a night on the lash.
DR John should get a knighthood for all his hard work and help to the public during this pandemic.
A knighthood for a fake email from Fauci? Most people can spot spelling mistakes with day, time and date
(for example 3.07 should be 03:07).
Instead he has now encouraged people to take LARGE HARMFUL doses! What a shame!
Thank you for consistently bringing the attention to vit d - I know you have been doing this since the start
The big problem at the start was that medical facilities were buying their masks on a monthly basis as they were used. They didn't have stock to cover increased use. To try to keep the masks available for medical personnel, the use of masks was downplayed.
I've been taking 8,000 units a day plus zinc. So far, so good. I'm 66 y/o.
I've taken 6000-8000 for Hashimoto's. my vit d was very low 18--Hashimotos causes low vit d
One reason for that: "winter is coming" really sounds like game of throne... Enlightening as always thank you Dr Campbell.
Good Morning Dr. Campbell,
I hope all is well with you and your family as always.
Where do you go from here?...Further! Vitamin D3 and science is so revealing. Let's see.
You've done an an outstanding job... THANK You FOR EVERYTHING!
Concerned Global Citizen,
I personally take 10000ui every other day along with 100mg k2 and 150 mg magnesium. I need to get my levels tested to make sure I'm doing well as my level was 10 3 years ago and should be around 70 so I was very deficient hence the high dose.
I take 10000 IUs every day with 2000mcgsof K2
10.000 every day? thats a way too high dose if you are a healthy person. vitamin d accumulates and such a high dosis in long term is dangerous. blood calcium will increase and and will take long to get back to normal. Daily dose shoulndt be over 4k-6k depending on body weight and age for a healthy persons over a long period of time. In germany healthy people are recommented to take 10k in one week if they have deficit. stay healthy !
high dosis is up to 40.000 IU
R G get your calcium levels checked just incase it’s too high. Get ya d levels checked too. That’s a very high dose
@@JohnSmith-km5jw not true. Daily doses should be whatever it takes to get your levels up to optimal. You need to take vit k2 which directs calcium to your bones, plus magnesium. Plus your age, your weight, your ethnicity all play a role in how much you need. Some medicines deplete vit d. It also has a half life. The Coimbra protocol uses massive doses of Vit d for autoimmune diseases but they test all the time for problems. The bottom line is know what your level is. www.sunarc.org/ www.grassrootshealth.net/
"go to your doctor.." I live in Taiwan so I don't need to worry, but in the USA that is EXPENSIVE!! Just take a bunch of vitamin D
Thank you for your video and all the info and advice.
Thank you for your honest thoughts and findings. It's so difficult to find information that sounds trustworthy, but this does click right away. Yes, let's avoid information that is contaminated with politics!
The Public Health England recommendation explicitly says that the 10 micro-gram dose is sufficient for bone and muscle health. It does not say that this dose is sufficient for immune system health. I believe that this is probably because the impact of vitamin D on the immune system was recently discovered whereas the association with rickets is long standing and well accepted.
No excuse not to have updated the information, especially now.
Christine P agreed
its been known for decades. If there is anything positive to have come out of this virus its the interest in Vit d. I test my levels every year and take 10000iu per day in winter along with its cofactors magnesium and vit k 2. most people eat enough calcium so dont need to take extra. www.sunarc.org/
Yes, I read through the comments to see if anyone had noted this. It is my understanding that there has not been enough research done related to IMMUNE SYSTEM and vitamin D, and thus the recommendations can't be updated yet. Meanwhile, I expect folks like Dr. Fauci have a strong hunch that it should be higher for immunity based on his general understanding. Also, I expect he works so much that he gets very little sun!
@@cherylmcduff5388 Vitamin A is another cofactor.
John, people were infected with cow pox, which made them immu e to small pox. Love you work! Carry on.
But long before that, they were often deliberately inoculated with matter from the spots of smallpox sufferers. Variolation= deliberately inoculating with variola (smallpox); vaccination= deliberate inoculation with vaccinia (cow pox). I think variolation was done up to a hundred years before vaccination, but cowpox turned out to be safer as cowpox was normally mild and not disfiguring. I think Edward Jenner, who introduced vaccination, must have had an "eye for the girls", as it was his observation that milkmaids always had unblemished skin, where so many others had pockmarked complexions, that drove him to his discovery of the cross-immunity. I am not sure he necessarily understood how it worked, but it did.
Thanks for all the valuble information Dr John Cambel
Thanks Dr. Campbell. God bless you always 🙏😍
I take since years 10.000 i.U. per day ... since 3 month I raised to 15.000 i.U. .... my level in blood is around 100 ng/ml ... i feel grand and was never ill ... and if, it just lasted for a very short time (hours, but never ever cauhging or sneezing again)..... btw. I started with 20 - 30.000 i. U. per day for some weeks (years ago) .... that was about 4 yrs ago .... I take also Mg and Bor and K2-Mk7 .... A rule could be around 50 i.U. per KG bodyweight - I personally think that is too low in our climate (I am from Austria) .... btw, i was ill like everybody else in the past, 1-2 times per year with all the annoying things - sick vor 2-3 weeks .... that is over ... I am age 61 !! - never felt better in my life .... :-)
God Bless!Amen!
I would really recommend you to watch this video
czcams.com/video/v3pK0dccQ38/video.html
Glad to hear you feel great!
This is sooo good to listen to when in bed... Such peaceful voice... zzzzzzz....
I feel asleep to it, not meaning to by any means. May re-watch later to get info.
Fabulous video! Finally someone producing videos purely to inform. Well done sir.
ALWAYS watching your very informative videos all the way to the end!
Wish everyone did that with mine! lol
Great science lesson😘very interesting data and info, glad to know masks really do help, shame not everyone wearing them. Thankyou John, much appreciated as always 🌸😊xxxxxx
When I was severely deficient several year ago I was taking a much higher dose than I am taking now. I was deficient again in March I was told to take 2 50mcg a day. My level was normal last month when retested but she told me to keep taking them and we would retest again in December.
Wonderful! Thanks John for this, as always!
I'm a black woman in US. My doctor a few years ago prescribed 10,000 IU's vitamin D weekly. About 6 months ago I started taking that dose nightly. I still take it to this day. I also wear a mask whenever I'm in public (grocery store, gas station, etc) other than that I am home. Don't like it either but I do it for public and my safety.
Hi as a suggestion I would ask you to consider having a blood test. My own doctor put me a high dose for a few months and then redid my blood which were by then in the moderately high levels. I am now on a 3000iu dose a day which maintains good levels. 10000iu daily seems a high dose daily and as you are female it could cause problems with your bones. 10,000 may be a good dose for you however checking that it is may prevent osteoporosis later.
@@allanchapman7986 Thanks for the advice. As I have MS and I just saw another orthopedic yesterday for back issues and test results and paperwork that i received it lists all my meds and supplements I take and it reccomends that I continue to take the 10,000 IU dosage. Told me to discontinue taking beta carotene and b-50 I had been taking. So all my doctors are aware of what I'm taking, the dosage and how often. I see them quite often. Every doctors visit asks me if there are any changes in what I take. I appreciate your concern and advice though. I am getting older now and am trying to take precautions. I'll be okay.
Be blessed and stay safe yourself.
