What if everything you’ve been told about “vitamin D” is wrong? What if “taking” a D supplement is actually harmful to your health? (Despite short-term improvement of symptoms, due to it being a steroid?) If you really reflect on this discussion, rather than dismiss it, you may end up reconsidering all isolated, synthetic nutrients. But today, let’s just take on supplemental “vitamin D3.”
For additional clarification, please see Agent 131711’s Substack “Vitamin D is Rat Poison: The Fraudulent World of Synthetic Vitamins” dates 2/1/2024. He had several articles about how vitamins are “made”.
I would suggest looking at the research of Dr Bruce Hollis (PhD) and his work using D3 with pregnant women to prevent preeclampsia and reducing prostate tumors in an FDA approved study. Two other good resources are www.vitamindwiki.com where an engineer created a database of all published D articles you can search by ailment and www.grassrootshealth.net.
I’m afraid you can’t be more wrong! One must know certain supplements don’t work if they’re taken individually, there are many that work in synergy and a must for complete transfer, absorption, and activation. If you were hypercalcimic, then you weren’t taking the D cofactors. If you had D toxicity - there is no such thing unless someone was taking more than 100k iu daily!), you were also not taking the cofactors. Now for the ‘rat poison’: if you’re taking your dr prescribed D, then yes, all chemical, synthetic and awful. But if you know to take credibly sourced D3, it’s the best supplement.
Partly true. Vitamin D is toxic to rats, HOWEVER, humans are not rats and it is a non-toxic vitamin supplement for us. Vitamin D is naturally synthesized by the body with enough sun exposure, but age, winter, and sunblock use prevent humans from getting enough of it. Supplementation is then recommended.
It's too long a piece to critique thoroughly but I will simply point out that cholecalciferol produced endogenously is EXACTLY the same chemical as cholecalciferol produced synthetically.
Yep, we internally synthesise rat poison because in physiologically normal doses it keeps us alive!
And, yep, in MASSIVE doses it will kill a rat. So what?
Taking vitamin D without the companion, K2 will lead to osteoporosis. You need to move to calcium out of the bloodstream into the bones and K2 does that.
Hi @robynopenshaw, you said “The active 1,25D should not exceed twice the 25D storage form.” What if it does? My wife’s are 146 and 65 respectively. Thanks
Vit d supplements saved me when I have a scratchy throat or colds. Its positive effect is undeniable. I feel it hours later. This sounds like pseudoscience. You could’ve at least provided some science that backs these claims.
Do you realize that Lyme and Epstein Barr, and all of the other "diagnoses" are just putting labels on symptoms and there is no evidence that any pathogen is at work here. These are just symptoms of toxicity that have a label so there can be a LOT of money made from treating these poor unsuspecting people, and in the process, usually creating even more symptoms in time.
What do you think about prenatal vitamins?

And have you ever heard of sun poisoning? Quantity matters.
That's like saying, water is for drowning.
Omg but we need to have high levels of D for immunity and I live without enough sun 5 mos of year
Go peddle your shit somewhere else
Yeah that was a remarkable piece of …. https://healthythinking.substack.com/p/vitamin-d-in-brain-health-mood-anxiety

Yet another bullshit scare story on D3.

You should also mention that chocolate is dog poison. Funny how different species metabolize things differently.
Well said. Thanks. https://inflammationmastery.substack.com/p/vitamin-d-goldmine5-in-antimicrobial

That’s (“The active 1,25D should not exceed twice the 25D storage form.”) mathematically impossible. https://healthythinking.substack.com/p/vitamin-d-in-brain-health-mood-anxiety
Good article that rings true. If there's big money to be made, I'm very sceptical, e.g big pHarma.
