Hair Loss Vitamin D
Anyone notice a difference in themselves..eg, skin, hair, mood, weight loss or gain after starting vitamin d?
Did u notice an improvement in your overall health after starting this vitamin?
I have Fibromyalgia – constant muscle pain – “something” I am doing has cleared this up (for the most part). I am only doing 2 things new & one is Vitamin D3 supplementation. I did it for 3 weeks & exclaiming that I am pain free. I knocked the dose down to 2000iu’s a day & a week later the pain is back. After restarting high levels, the pain is managed again. Coincidence, possibly, it’s too soon to tell, but I don’t think I will allow my supplementation to go below 5000iu again. I am very hopeful that this may help improve my health.
Vitamin D3 deficiency is becoming an epidemic. U.S. RDA are much too low & the prescription vitamin D supplements are the wrong type (ergocalciferol ). Luckily you can buy vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) and the upper limits are extremely high. Current recommendations are for 35iu per pound – a 200# person needs minimum of 7000iu per day & the rda is 400iu. This amount is for minimal needs and does not account for depleted stores. Right now (March) is when our stores are at their lowest.
I personally have been doing 30,000-50,000iu per day for the past month trying to refill my stores. It is highly recommended that you have your vit.D levels tested but my research shows toxicity only at outrageous, long term levels.
Low Vitamin D levels greatly increases your risk of cancer, diabetes, MS & heart attack.
