Is anyone taking vitamin D3?

[Zdeweilx]

I'm a basement dweller and havent seen the sun for almost 3 weeks, would I be better off supplementing vitamin D3?
What are some of the benefits of taking it on a regular basis?

It helps your bones and skin if you are deficient, which you probably are if you are sitting inside all day. Take 10000ui.

I take vitamin D.

Helps with my protein intake.

Im takin d3 myself 5000 IU per day
If you wanna take d3 vitamin k2 mk7 is a must 200mcg per day (it cleans your arteries from possible calcification from d3)

In liquid form they are the cheapest and cost 20bucks for a year

Im takin them for longevity reason and Testosteron

 

[thecaste]

D3 is so damn important in so many ways, the function and tasks of this vitamin are similar to those of a hormone: Bone health, immune system, mental health, anticancer, longetivity etc.

I'm taking 30mg K2 Mk4, is Mk-7 better?

 

[Cope]

Yes brah, D3 is essential.

It's other benefits have already been mentioned, but it also lowers SHBG and increases both free and total testosterone:

Association of vitamin D status with serum androgen levels in men - PubMed

Androgen levels and 25(OH)D levels are associated in men and reveal a concordant seasonal variation. Randomized controlled trials are warranted to evaluate the effect of vitamin D supplementation on androgen levels.

MK-4 is superior if you want BONES.

Yes retard, get on vitamin D as soon as possible it's one of the few scientifically legit vitamins that will benefit you

Primary benefits are anti aging and bone density preservation

 

[Deleted member 5393]

I have some vitamin D right here for u son

no... all these vitamins are a bluepill scam.

 

[DutchPrettyBoy]

if you don't get any from the sun then yes supplement this.

 

[Mr.cope]

No I just go outside without sunscreen

 

[didntreadlol]

200mcg mk7 gives me severe sides. what's your secret

 

[AlphaDude]

Of course, it's the most important vitamin in my opinion besides Vit C. I take around 3000iu every day year-round except in the summer. 5 days with no sun and I'll be lazy and depressed as fuck.

I didn’t actually take 18,000 IU daily, more like every third day. Still ended up with a kidney stone. A cousin of mine also got a stone at my age so it’s more likely just a genetic thing

 

[Romnel]

Has a bunch of benefits and imo is a natural anti-depressant. Most people are deficient so it gives an 'advantage' in that way.

10,000iu is way too much (in my opinion) as it will likely throw off alot of ratios.
I personally take 3,000/4,000iu per day as that's an amount that could be obtainable naturally from sun exposure and fatty fish. If you have much more than that then defo make sure your vitamin A is in check with some grass-fed liver or something.

Also it's fat soluble so you probs wanna take it with fatty food.

 

[Deleted member 2095]

My vit D level was 54 ng/ml when I got the stone

 

[Deleted member 7098]

B12 and D3 aren't scams.

D3 is recommended 2000 IU per day, wouldn't risk the "safe maximum". there aren't any studies backing positive effect of a higher dosage if your younger than 50 years old and your body can properly convert it.
