Steve Gibson has talked about this issue in the past: https://www.grc.com/health/vitamin-d.htm (And please, yes we get it you are a smart ass, don't link to the page that you are going to. The horse has been beaten to death.)

Now I'm curious as to what page you're referring to.

This article recommends around 100 nmol/L. Most people are between 20-30, because they don't get enough Sun and do not take supplements. It gets really really bad when the number gets below 10 and it takes months to recover. Another Vitamin whose deficiency cause irreversible damage is B12. Folks, get both of these checked.

> [D and] B12. Folks, get both of these checked.

Yes, please. I'm spreading this news for years. Many are deficient in both. B12 has a name for being low in veg*ans, while that is true many omnis are deficient as well.

It's good to have more papers published on "high-dose D3". But by what I read this has been know for many years.

And shun multi-AZ tablets, they provide a false sense of security. Eat loads of fresh produce and beans, that should help with most of your nutrition needs. Shun dairy and processed foods -- they kill you. Limit (or drop) meat, fish and eggs. Finally you want to eat a brazil nut every day for your selenium.

Supplement D3 and B12. Possibly (after doing your research) iodine, iron, high-DHA omega 3.

One point of caution: Anyone who takes Vitamin D supplement, make sure you take 25-Hydroxy (Calcifediol) and not the active form - 1,25 dihydroxy (Calcitriol). Active form has severe side effects and is not supposed to be used for supplementation unless in you have kidney problem which prevent metabolizing 25-Hydroxy.

And pay a visit to toxinless.com to made sure your supplement is clean.

Throwing in my two cents. I used to suffer from seasonal mood swings, since taking a daily multivitamin this has been the best winter of my life.

I've been tracking my depression for a few years now, and I'm amazed at the number of things that can trigger a depressive episode. I used to think I had a disease called depression, but it now appears that I had arrived at a collection of various life circumstances that made experiencing depression on any given day more likely for me. Some of the main triggers have been: - Attempting to proceed without a plan - Push…

This is interesting and resonates with me. While I agree with your conclusion about giving advice, could you perhaps share your methodology for discovering your triggers?

I have been taking 5000IU Vitamin D for the past 7 years, with a little more over the winter months. It's stupidly cheap, I get 360 5000IU capsules for $13, so it has cost me less than $100 over that period.

Anecdotally, it was a game changer for me personally. I got less sick during the winter, and my overall wellbeing improved greatly.

A word of advice, increase Vitamin K intake aswell. Vitamin D helps calcium absorption, but Vitamin K directs it to where it needs to go (skeleton).

For Vitamin D 1IU is 0.025mcg. 8000IU = 200mcg My box of vitamin shows a Vitamin D3 content on 5mcg/pill (noted as 100% of recommended daily intake). Time to change pill I guess...

Yes. And see toxinless.com for good info on clean supplements.

Well it is pretty obvious that there is an epidemic of low testosterone in modern society and it looks like this is one of the many causes. The soyboy epidemic is real.

People have placed too much trust in "science". Science is just humans. No matter how you word it, the scientific process is just a tool. People say "science" is responsible for various discoveries, but in reality, smart people building on the work of other smart people are responsible for those discoveries. Science was merely a process used, often discarded as people chose to believe certain assumptions were false despite the supposed "evidence" to the contrary.

Just as with the articles on sitting all day, where people proclaimed their joy at the idea that doing a few stretches will solve their problems, here we have people proclaiming that the best solution to this problem is "supplements". Little pills of synthesized nutrients, with no actual evidence related to their effectiveness.

It is a technocratic dysfunction. People walking down a path to their own destruction based on "progress". A progress to where? To being low in testosterone, depressed, anxious, and lonely.

When it turns out that you need about 20 minutes of sun exposure per day, and your employer doesn't allow you to have that, what then? When it turns out that you can't actually just sit all day and yet your job is a programmer, what then? When you are 40 and it turns out you couldn't "make your life better", what then? It is over.

People have to jump on a scale to tell them their weight. They no longer trust themselves in any way. They need to measure their food, their weight, the number of steps they take. They need a scientist to tell them how to live. Another human with a flawed study. What happened to intuition, instincts, and emotions? Oh emotions are useless, says the person who basis every decision on a list of pros and cons that leads them to making the worst decisions of all. I can't trust myself anymore with anything.

We as a human race our slaves to a wealthy class of people and have been since the agricultural revolution where slaves became a thing. The roman empire was characterized by 20% of the population being actual slaves. Now we all sit inside our cubicle all day, for 8 hours a day, as slaves. All we do is get to the next day, and the next day, in a constant state of limbo and nothingness. These are not our true lives. Safety, cleanliness, and sterility.

I remember watching the videos of the shootings in Las Vegas and hearing one of the girls say "this is more exciting then the concert". The media quickly dismissed it as "some people were drunk". It is a bit of an awkward truth that being drunk doesn't make you a different person, it simply removes your socially programmed inhibitions. People are seeking out danger in a sterile world.

What will the next study reveal? That enslaving hundreds of thousands of animals chemically alters the meat to make it dangerous for humans? That 7 billion people may be, oh, I don't know, a little too many people on earth? What a shock all of this would be.

Where too then technocrats? Where are you progressing too now? Thanks in advance for the downvotes soyboys.
