Vitamin D toxicity is very rare and typically involves too much calcium in the blood. Even Dr. Bruce Hollis, a pioneer in vitamin D research, has never personally seen a case of vitamin D toxicity. To develop vitamin D toxicity, you’d have to consume hundreds of thousands of IU of vitamin D3 for months!
Vitamin D needs magnesium to function properly in the body. The more vitamin D you take, the more magnesium you need. Magnesium prevents vascular calcification, the main problem associated with vitamin D toxicity.
The vitamin D receptor is dependent on zinc. Like magnesium, your zinc requirements increase when you take vitamin D. Zinc deficiency symptoms include an altered sense of taste and smell, acne, flaky skin, and lowered testosterone.
When you increase your vitamin D intake, you’ll need more vitamin K2. Vitamin K2 helps prevent the buildup of calcium and also helps to drive calcium into the bones and teeth.
The active form of vitamin A, called retinol, is also an important cofactor for vitamin D. Vitamin A receptors sometimes bind with vitamin D receptors as a complex. Vitamin A also helps keep calcium out of your arteries.
Always take vitamin D3, not D2. Vitamin D2 is less potent and is typically synthetic. Avoid synthetic vitamin D3 supplements and supplements with fillers such as maltodextrin or glucose syrup.
Leafy greens, chocolate, certain nuts, and pumpkin seeds are the best food sources of magnesium. When choosing a supplement, look for magnesium glycinate. The best food sources of zinc are red meat and shellfish. If you take a zinc supplement, consume it in a blend with other trace minerals.
For every 10,000 IU of vitamin D3 that you take, you’ll need 100 mcg of vitamin K2. MK7 is the best form. Vitamin K2 is found in high-quality grass-fed butter, kimchi, sauerkraut, grass-fed beef, and eggs.
It’s best to get your vitamin A from food. Egg yolks, liver, and cod liver oil are the best sources.

You can make ketones by doing keto diet, eating healthy fats, fasting, Keep your carbs low

I started losing weight from 18/ 6 in my midsection and even ankle legs I stopped eating at 1pm to 6 this morning. I made some organic coffee slowly eating 2 eggs with Avocado and going walking, take my vitamins❤
Merry Christmas to you all ❤
Good for You
Sounds great 😊
Merry Christmas 🎄
That’s great! Btw, I loved you in Miami Vice.
@@lilyrose4191 ☺ Good Day
@@ForeverTogether219 peace ✌
Dr. Berg states clearly what personal care physicians dont want to state out loud. It might impact the pharmaceutical industry profits.
Thanks Dr. Berg! I voted for you as an RFK consultant candidate!
Do you start January 20th on inauguration day?
Same 😊
Thanks for all of the help this year Doc, made a big diffrence
Happy Christmas to you and all your viewers 🎄🎄
The same to you too
So if you take 10,000 units of vitamin d3 how much magnesium and zinc would be needed?
dr bergs vitamine d supplement has 100mcg k2, 25mg magnesium citrate and 20mg zinc sulfate and additional 3.4mg B6
his video yesterday or maybe Saturday covers your question
He tells you in THIS video. Watch the damn video.
Rude, but true.
@@michiganman845
He suggests a range of 800mg to 2400mg of magnesium and to take zinc, but not an amount. I take 30mg of zinc, but listen to your body and if you have any of the symptoms of zinc deficiency he explains, I’d take more until they go away.
thank you, Dr. Berg and Company.
I love how you always share the books you are reading with your audience. They are books Big Pharma wishes would disappear. So thank you sir!
It’s called advertisement.
@ they aren’t his books, they are usually unknown and he wants to get the word out smarty pants
Kat do you by any chance have the titles of the other books. I want to write them all down and buy it slowly
On the contrary. Big pharma are really happy your stuffing all these man made unnaturally ingested vitamins into your body. you pee most of it out, your body wants it from good food, the way it’s been used to getting it for aeons.
Learn to eat natto. You can buy it at Asian grocery stores usually in the frozen section. I suggest 1/4 teaspoon a day until you get used to the taste and slimy texture. You’ll eventually come to love it and your body will crave it.
Heard of…i take nattokinase…i assume its the active compound in natto?
I take the natto capsules.
Great content as usual Dr. Berg. I thank God for the day I came across you on YouTube. Since then I take every video and advise of yours seriously. You are a jewel to whoever want to maintain a healthy lifestyle.
My life is divided to 2 parts:
Before I got to know Dr. Berg, and after…
Indeed, same here!
Amen 🙏
I believe that 12.9M of us are on a healthier path thanks to Dr. Berg!
Thank you Dr Berg am still learning so much from you.
Love Dr Eric Berg 1st thing in the morning, best way to start the day with knowledge on self care ❤
But this is not knowledge about yourself
Thank you, Dr Berg. You’re a true blessing. Excellent video 💯
Best video yet, all the information needed all wrapped up in one !
Merry Christmas to me !!
I take 50k a day right now (winter). It’s not a dose i just came up with. It’s the minimum of what i found i need to keep my mood out of the tank during this time of year. I just needed the courage to go past the RDA bc it did nothing, just nothing. I do have the genes that make Vitamin D harder to uptake. I would have never thought to look for that if it hadnt been for these videos. So grateful, thank you! You also, helped me with my gastritis and sibo!
50,000 iu equals 1.25 mg. It doesn’t sound like a lot when its in milligrams does it? For such an important vitamin/hormone, maybe thats why those in charge decided to measure D3 in international units?
Ur taking the k2 aswell?
How you cured Sibo
Who else just randomly found Dr. Berg videos one day and had been watching ever since?! 🤷
Found almost a year ago. He’s absolutely amazing, and I think he truly needs to be involved with RFK Jr.’s Make America Healthy Again mandate!!
@@ohlordy9680 yes about 7 years ago. Taught me everything I need to know. He also got me into research. I appreciate him hugely.
Who else presses thumbs up even before video started? As you know its going to be right. Thankyou for everything Dr Berg. Happy Christmas to you n yours !.
John Campbell has a fantastic new video out with Dr David Grimes. Hour n half of pure gold.
Thumbs up if I watch the video, my payment for their sharing.
Thank you, Dr. Berg. I love that you showed us the reference book and how the RDA has changed. I ordered an older copy of the book because I believe that much of the information we are getting from doctors has been “diluted”. Nutritional therapies have been used successfully in the past, and then covered up or “forgotten”. You keep bringing this to light for us and it is extremely helpful. Blessings.
Really glad to hear from you. Thanks for watching. Appreciate the support!
