Now, when you see this thread, you must think "no way my favorite lookism creator said I should definitely be taking this supplement", the truth is, you shouldn't. And here's why.
Vitamin D, we’ve all probably taken it before in pill form, which was a mistake. Studies show that vitamin D enhances mineral absorption and can lead to hypercalcemia (dangerously high levels of calcium in the blood). Higher levels of vitamin D have also been linked to enhanced absorption of toxic elements such as aluminum, cadmium, cobalt, and lead.
Unfortunately, during COVID, many people were taking very high doses of vitamin D from supplements, sometimes up to 10,000 IU per day or more. Symptoms of vitamin D overdose include weight loss, vomiting, nausea, appetite suppression, excessive thirst, constipation, headaches, and nervousness. Heart rhythm irregularities, an increased risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, and renal failure are also associated with vitamin D overdose.
Kidney stones are another danger of excess vitamin D. Lifeguards in Israel reportedly have twenty times the rate of kidney stones as the general population, which is insane to think about. According to Chris Masterjohn, kidney stones may be the most sensitive indicator of vitamin D toxicity and are also a symptom of vitamin A and K2 deficiency.
In partial recognition of the need to balance high doses of vitamin D with cofactors, many practitioners now recommend taking vitamin K along with vitamin D. This may deplete vitamin A even faster. THE ALTERNATIVE: One teaspoon of cod liver oil can supply about 1,000 IU of vitamin D, combined with vitamin D obtained from foods such as egg yolks, lard, seafood, poultry liver, poultry fat, and organ meats, that is plenty. These foods also supply vitamin K2 MK-4.
Vitamin D supplements are unnecessary and could put YOU at risk. diet is the key.
