I’ve been taking 20,000 iu vitamin d3 every single day for 4-5 years

[Jerryterry129]

Wondering if that could fuck me up. Or have any long lasting sides. Lol every single day I’ve taken 20k for 4 years straight.. now that I reflect on what I’m doin I feel like a mad man

I remember when I got a blood test my vit d came back high but I was doin more than 20k at that time

and yes I take k2 with it everyday for 4 yrs

 

[Gonthar]

And what happened, did you grow taller, did your face get wider?

 

[Jerryterry129]

And what happened, did you grow taller, did your face get wider?

I mean idk.. it’s hard to track progress of it cause I been doing every single thing in the book for 4 years lmao. Idk what is doing what. I also take a shit load of other vitamins

i don’t think d3 can make you taller lol

I guess my wrist got bigger cause my watch doesn’t fit anymore from hs

 

[Bewusst]

Too much tbh and you also need vitamin A and magnesium with it

Did your dick get bigger?

 

[Gonthar]

i don’t think d3 can make you taller lol

Well it helps the bones grow, I remember reading in an old book written before vitamins were even discovered about an old fisherman who ate so much fish fat that his bones had grown extra bones on them and his fingers were twice as wide as a normal person, fish fat has plenty of D3 and was given in the old times especially to kids for healthy bones and to prevent rickets.

 

[Jerryterry129]

I take 400g magnesium daily for 4 years too. No vit a though

 

[Jerryterry129]

Did your dick get bigger?

maybe. I remember I used to be like 7 inches now I’m 7.6 inches. But that could be from anything

 

[Gonthar]

Do you have photos of before and after, let us see your face, to observe if there's any change in the facial bones, you can blur your eyes if you are afraid someone might recognize you.

 

[EasternRightWinger15]

I'm taking 12 000 iu daily, but also 800 mcg of vitamin A, 600 mg of magnesium and 75 mcg of k2, is it ok?

 

[DrTony]

I always laugh so hard internally when I see teenagers taking all those vitamin supplements thinking they will make any difference and falling for the meme unregulated supplement industry. Most evidence so far, show that vitamin supplements are useless and quite a few of them are actually dangerous for human health (some very dangerous)

If you're deficient in a vitamin there is no harm in getting the RDA through supplement form. 20000 IU for vitamin D is way too much though.4000 IU is the upper limit.

If you're deficient in a vitamin there is no harm in getting the RDA through supplement form. 20000 IU for vitamin D is way too much though.4000 IU is the upper limit.

If you are deficient through a confirmed blood test, *perhaps* yes if diet is impossible to address. Know that the supplement industry is unregulated. Each time you pop a pill you really have no idea what you are taking. You put faith in what the label says and hope for the best.

Also taking a vitmain in pill form rather than through diet or natural means is different. For example for vitamin D, getting it from the sun is infinitely more effective than taking it in pill form, for reasons poorly understood. By the way I am not some hippie fag believing in memes "natural is better, chemistry is bad".

Prolonged intake of antioxidant vitamin pills (like vitamin E and many others) are potentially dangerous. Good concrete data on this.

There hasn't been a single piece of reliable high quality scientific evidence that taking multivitamins as a healthy adult (or any isolated vitamin in pill form) improves human health by any measurable way on any metric (sadly).

Taking your vitamins and minerals through diet works infinitely better than supplements for reasons not entirely understood.

There is a lot of antagonistic relationships of one mineral with another that can be troubling when you take multi-vitamins.

 

[noorwoodinfinite]

What was your blood 25 OH d3 level? and after how long of taking d3 it was? Plus taking very high dose of D3 can cause sides effects if its not taken with vitamin A

 

[anti caking agents]

Based. Since you are doing it in combination with Vitamin K2, I suppose you are a believer in human hibernation and in the incomplete repair syndrome theory?

Overdose = calcification of arteries (and then of normal tissue):

Vitamin D and vascular calcification - PubMed

Available data indicate that vitamin D exerts a biphasic 'dose response' curve on vascular calcification with deleterious consequences not only of vitamin D excess but also of vitamin D deficiency.

pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov

Just one of many studies

Seems can happen with deficiency as well

 

[JosephGarrot123]

I take 5,000 IU D3 daily but 20k? That seems alot to take daily

so what does calcification mean?

maybe one day, I decently change my face from age 19-21 though. That’s when I First started mewing. I’m 25. Been mewing since 19. I believe any face changes is from mewing

and I didn’t just mew for those 5 years. At age 21 I started thumb pulling and belt pulling and still do it to this day

Basically, Vitamin D3 is not actually a vitamin but rather a secosteroid. It is simply called Vitamin D because it was discovered after Vitamin A,D,C.

The theory is that humans have evolved to slow down as winter is approached, in the sense that as your vitamin D3 levels drop - your body begins preparing for winter.

In the spring and summer your body is exposed to lots of sun and therefore your vitamin d3 levels are high. From a evolutionary biology point of view this act as a signal since with summer comes an abundance of food. Therefore with high vitamin D3 levels you have lots of energy, heal well since your body is not trying to save anything for a rainy day.

That is the gist of it. The Incomplete Repair Syndrome is part of that - if you were in winter and you somehow wounded yourself, should your body spend all its available resources healing said wound or do an adequate job that will last until next summer and then heal you completely then. Since if the body were to use all resources on one wound, for example a bone break then it would not have anything stored for the next break.

Calcification according to this theory is due to low levels of Vitamin K2 which forces the body to take calcium from the bones and into the blood. From an evolutionary biology point of view this mechanism makes perfect sense. However what this means in practice is that K2 deficiency is what causes calcification of the arteries. Which is interesting because if applied to mewing - then the widespread K2 deficiency of modern civilization is the causation of our recessed jaws and so forth.

Since the bone jaw becomes too narrow due to lack of calcium deposition during development due to a K2 deficient modern diet that priorities calcium in blood compared to the ancestral diet with higher K2 ratio that favours calcium deposition in bones.

In that sense the idea that Vitamin D is toxic is wrong as it is rather a function of vitamin D inducing a deficiency of Vitamin K. This makes perfect sense since increase in Vitamin D creates a massive increase in the expression of certain genes whos activation and subsequent function require carboxylation - which requires Vitamin K.

There are a lot more interesting functions in terms of Vitamin D and Vitamin K but I would honestly recommend most people to try taking 15,000 IU - 20,000 IU for a few weeks and see if they feel better just make sure to supplement with Vitamin K2. It is both cheap and safe since dosages of up to 100,000 IU can be tolerated by humans for a few months without adverse effects.

But I’ve also took 100mcg k2 everyday for 5 years with my 20k d3. So am I good?

According to this theory and its reasoning then yes. According to conventional science no. Go get tested or something and stop worrying about this, the mental energy you would spend is not worth it. If your arteries are fine then keep taking Vitamin D3.

May I ask how often you get a cold since you started on 20,000 IU of D3?

Sometimes at the end of my fast my hands and feet get cold but that’s due to being in ketosis and a known side effect when carb depleted

If you are deficient through a confirmed blood test, *perhaps* yes if diet is impossible to address. Know that the supplement industry is unregulated. Each time you pop a pill you really have no idea what you are taking. You put faith in what the label says and hope for the best.

Also taking a vitmain in pill form rather than through diet or natural means is different. For example for vitamin D, getting it from the sun is infinitely more effective than taking it in pill form, for reasons poorly understood.

almost half the population has insufficient vitamin D levels especially dark skinned people like me living in colder climates, I am sure there is no harm in taking vit D most people dont live out in the sun anymore as sad as it is.
And yes taking vitamins without a sufficient reason to do so deficiency or probable deficiency is stupid.

 

[Incoming]

But I’ve also took 100mcg k2 everyday for 5 years with my 20k d3. So am I good?

Should have taken double that with such a large d3 dose

 

[Mr.cope]

Literally no point in taking d3 when you can just go outside

 

[father_john]

Does it actually make dick bigger tho?

 

[Schizoidcel]

I wouldn't take more than 7k IU's daily long term.

So what do you think about supplements in a powdered form directly derived from a plant/animal. Eg collagen, cod liver oil, bosweilla, ashwaganda.

Calcification... Calcium... calcium =/= D3. Just a lot of D3 in foods high in calcium
