I've been reading this book and would like to start taking large amounts of vitamin D3. I'm aware K2 must go with it, and there is mk4 or the stronger mk7.
Has anybody done this? Info?

oh yeah superdoses totally make you healthy. remember that goldbergs products are the best vitamins - theyre natural organic gluten free and are better absorbed

There is some question about epigenetic downregularion
if you supplement the body's normal feedback system will down-regulate( stop production)
but in the absence of UVB from Sun you don't produce any anyway
There is some question about whether the system will immediately resume D production in skin after resumption of sun exposure with UVB and so if you cease supplementing you experience no lag in D3 levels.
I did find a study which examined this question for Melatonin and found there was no delay in the endogenous production when the period of exogenous supplementing ceased .
I would tend to expect the same is the case for D
Level however I have no studies showing the benefit or safety of mega-dosing D
I have read there is a self limiting system for endogenous D so you don't overdose from sunlight UVB.. look into this mechanism and if it works with the exo

Book tldr = without sunlight, the body enters a quasi-hibernation mode which entails depression, obesity, bone troubles, cancers, pains etc. When the body has vitamin d3 it leaves this hibernation mode, allowing it to make use of rather than hold in reserve it's resources.
Just got a combined D3 (5000 IU) and K2 (MK-7, 1200 IU) in the mail.
Doc recommended and uses it, so we'll see.

What about doctors giving mega doses of vitamin d in injections?

How long have you been taking it? How do you feel? Do you take anything to add it's absorption?

do you have some acute disease which would require that?
You're not going to transform your essential condition by mega-dosing d.

You actually looked at that cover and thought in all seriousness that that book was a good source of informations?
>>39992350
I take D3 + K2. Pic related is some info concerning vitamin D deficiency.

>I'm aware K2 must go with it
No, it doesn't.
Also K2 is a meme, real men go for K3.
I started taking 4000 IU of D3 this winter to try to stop what was an annual winter tradition of falling ill and/or feeling a little depressed.
So far I do feel better. More energy and don't need as much sleep.
