yeah, i started doing daily 10,000iu d3 + k2 during covid without even knowing about its effect on depression (ie, it shouldn't be placebo) and it really did seem to make a difference

*pathologically overcalcifies*

>>16719631
be sure to drink milk and get calcium, if you don't get dietary calcium it will pull it from your bones

>>16720166
and take it with k2

It ages you

>>16718972 (OP)
Literal snake oil

>>16720166
Milk has a negative calcium balance

>>16718974
What are you talking about? It actually helps sleep. Also don't take it right before you go to sleep. Take it during the day with your meal.

>>16718972 (OP)
kek, I take vitamine D supplements, I also occasionally farm sun expossure (minimal, but still), but pretty sure that what keeps me sane is zyprexa olanzapine

>>16721091
Lol

>>16718972 (OP)
I take 10,000iu per day, it changed my personality for the better.

Colecalciferol ?

>>16721962
Vitamin d3 carlyle brand orange bottle

>>16722123
I take the liquid Colecalciferol just because it doesn't have all the binders and shit they put in pills.

>>16720166
Really the biggest caveat of nutritional supplements is that they imbalance each other.
Too much magnesium will leech out iron, for example. And there’s many more cases like this.
Good nutrition still mogs pharmacolojews thobeit.

>>16722398
Yes there are many ways to throw off mineral balance. Unfortunately soil and food has far less than what it used to, for example copper is something like 30% of what it used to be in fruits and vegetables.

>>16722409
Yep, GMO crop designers get paid based on how big and fast they can make crops grow, not necessarily how nutritional they are.
It’s unfortunate.
There’s also a case to be made with modern tap water. Very sterile and safe, but a little lacking compared to “hard water” like from wells and streams.

>>16719631
>>16721632
Wtf are you doing, 10,000 puts you in the (usually very difficult to reach) toxicity range. I do 5,000 and am not missing anything

>>16722409
ive never become anemic from magnesium and ive taken truckloads
only zinc, because it helps (or makes) your body lose its copper which is needed for absorbing iron

>>16722422
10,000 is definitely needed in some people who are deficient enough, while also being enough to poison others, but it wont kill you without at least a couple dozen repeated doses most likely, and you'd be suffering and know you're overdosing on it or at least know soething is very wrong

>>16722422
>>16722429
Da fuck r u talking bout? I take 10,000iu every morning for the past 2 years and I'm good to go, all healthy, my vitamin d3 levels in my blood are 83ng/ml, toxicity occurs at 150ng/ml.

>>16722446
i didnt say it would kill anyone to take indefinitely but im kind of glad you took it that way because this is an interesting anecdote, i think many people would be poisoned by this, especially myself, but that is because my body isnt using enough i guess, i probably need more exercise and other nutrients to help me make use of more vitamin d

>>16722426
>only zinc, because it helps (or makes) your body lose its copper which is needed for absorbing iron
copper is necessary for iron transport into red blood cells, I actually wrecked myself taking zinc and was able to fix it by taking copper, it's hard to balance the ratios but takes experimentation

>>16722449
>>16722446
oh yeah but there is the problem with absorption

like if you take it in the form of 1 or 2 tiny pills without much if any fat in your stomach you will only absorb a small fraction of it, so that is what could be going on with you

what i do is i take multiple 1000 IU pills because the absorption is much more consistent

but i probably could use more exercise and more of many micronutrients

>>16722451
That's just completely wrong. In order to reach toxic levels you need to take 20,000iu per day at minimum for like a year.

10,000iu per day is fine, its better than 5000iu, your still way below toxicity levels.

>>16722472
bullshit
ive taken literally thousands of vitamin D pills over 10 years
and if i took 10,000 a day for a few weeks max i would have tons of pain in my stomach. and so did my friend who i got to start taking vitamin d and he stupidly tried relying on it too much and ended up with abdominal pain all the time too
i think you're just not absorbing much and are basing all this on your own personal experience

>>16722446
>>16722451

>>16722475
There was a 20 year study where they gave patients with schizophrenia MEGA doses of Vitamin D for weeks or months. I'm talking 50,000 IU a day. Apparently it improved their symptoms and well being.

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC8505257/

Here's the study - fact check me if I said anything stupid or misremembered, I gotta run.

>>16722620
Meh, you can always find random study that support your belief.

>>16722637
What's the point of doing studies then? The point is it's not "toxic" taking 10,000 IU. It's the equivalent of 20-30 mins of sun exposure.

>>16722642
>the body can produce up to 10,000 iu on its own if needed
>therefore taking that much every day forever is fine

Yeah, that's about the maximum your body will produce per day, maybe 20k at most if youre in serious need

Not to mention that's probably the most ideal conditions, like a white person living near the equator, which is not where white people evolved to live

>>16722642
>>16722822
You guys are legit evil. Trying to poison internet strangers? Legit psychopath.

>>16722822
Most people are deficient anyway because they stay indoors all the time.

>>16718972 (OP)
Most overlooked condition in the west is probably Vitamin D deficiency. I just had it big time, it sucked ass - My bones hurt, I was tired, depressed, got migraines 3-4 times a week so bad I couldnt do shit.

When I got diagnozed I started taking 100mcg daily for months until I could just get into the sun more, now I feel much better.

Fun fact, did you know they mass produce D3 from washing sheep and processing the wash water?

>>16722844
The evil people are the ones who mass purchase experimental anti-virals and genetherapeutic "vaccines" instead of telling you to supplement with D3 in the winter. Conveniently it is the same people who are telling you that taking 10.000 IU of vitamin D is "toxic".

If you have any of these conditions:
- Low T
- Bad mood
- Depression
- Chronic fatique
- Sleep +8 hours daily
- Bones that hurt
- Migraines
- Unexplained gain of fat around the belly
- Frequent infection
- Slow healing wounds

You probably should try taking 10.000IU for a few months, im serious.

Vitamin d3 is the best

my vitamin d was so low it was in the single digits i think 7 or 8 out of whatever. started taking these now. Dr said it was the lowest his clinic has seen in 24 years

>>16721101
I wish someone told me this shit, I've been taking it right before bed for a month

I dont know if this stuff has fixed my mental illness, maybe I feel different though. Maybe I feel better. Kinda feels like it

>>16724837
Wtf? That's not good at all bro. What dose did they put you on? Do you even go outside?
>>16724868
For me it has a dramatic effect, I only take it during winter when I don't go outside that much.

>>16719190
wtf is this
it looks gross

>>16722943
>until I could just get into the sun more, now I feel much better
I could never absorb Vitamin D from the sun, even when I lived in sunnier parts of the world

>>16724906
lion's mane mushroom, most likely

>>16724893
i go outside maybe every other day but yeah it sucks im depressed as shit put me on the ops pic

I literally went through a bottle of it fairly recently, 50,000 IU, and I'm still depressed.
Don't think I noticed any symptoms of toxicity either.

>>16725366
50k iu weekly is standard treatment for severe deficiency.
