    Vitamin D deficiency raises cortisol, leading to irritability and emotional swings.

    So with that in mind, what do you do to keep your vitamin D levels in a healthy range?

    Thanks to Dr. Berg – I saw this post on his feed. I walk for an hour in the morning sun everyday part of that on the beach. Makes me happy, keeps me fit and ups the D levels.

      I take Vit D3 supplements, and keep my blood level above 90, ever since I heard that nobody over 60 got Covid. But, I’m still irritable with mood swings. I think it comes from watching “legacy media” defending the old CDC.

    A good amount of morning sunlight to include a walk and d3 supplement. I have not added a k to the regimen yet.

    We take a weekly capsule containing 50,000 IUs of Vitamin D3 + 200mcg of K2-MK7.

    We bought it on Amazon from Bayland Health (distributed by Micro Ingredients).

    I take 5,000 IU vitamin D3 with midday meal along with 200 mcg vitamin K2 (MK-7), and again during evening meal, I take another 5000 IU vitamin D3 with 200 mcg K2. My last measured blood test showed 79.7 ng/mL for 25(OH)D. I don’t get much sunlight these days; so I also take one to two servings per day of 100% virgin cod liver oil (Nutrapro International, Norway) with food; it is rich in omega-3 and vitamin A and D.

    I’m currently in UK where you cannot get a doctor to run a test to see what your Vitamin D levels are for love nor money. We also don’t have much sunshine. So I take 4,000 IU D3 and 100 ug(?) K2 a day. I’m not sure if that’s enough or not but I figure it’s better than nothing.

    I take 50,000 IU Vitamin D 4 days/week along with Vitamin K2. This is prescribed by my doctor in order to support my immune system due to a diagnosis of rhabdomyosarcoma in the uterus. Had tumor tissue removed (hysterectomy) in July and am now free of any cancer cells anywhere in the body.

    Very important to test Ca (calcium) and PTH (parathyroid hormone) levels when taking this much vitamin D. I have blood work once/month to test those levels. Have been doing this (under doctor’s care) for 6 months and plan to continue at this level for another 6 mos.

    Hi all, here’s a vitamin D dosage search on our website https://imahealth.org/search/?direqt_search_nonce=1b8981573e&_wp_http_referer=%2Fsearch%2F%3Fdireqt_search_nonce%3D1b8981573e%26q%3Dvitamin%2Bd&q=vitamin+d+daily+dosage.

    This link https://imahealth.org/understanding-the-health-benefits-of-vitamin-d/ offers for non-obese adults (~70 kg), daily intake of 5,000–7,000 IU is recommended to maintain optimal serum levels of 40–80 ng/mL.

    Hope this helps

    Once I recognized that there is no nationally established standard, or range, for the blood level of Vitamin D it changed my outlook. Without this standard, each separate laboratory establishes their own individual standards. To make my long story short, once I watched the FLCCC webinar and recognized that Dr. Paul Marik (who I highly respect) takes 10,000 IU of Vitamin D3-K2 via supplement daily, I followed his lead. It works for those of us that do not have sandy beaches nearby or have occupations/life styles that preclude prolonged periods of daily exposure to sunlight.
