Here's something that might shock you...
Getting enough vitamin D isn't as simple as sitting in the sun or taking a supplement.
In fact, Most people taking vitamin D supplements are actually making things WORSE.
Why?
Because vitamin D doesn't work alone...
It's part of a complex system that requires specific co-factors to function properly:
- Vitamin K2
- Magnesium
- Vitamin A
- Zinc
- Boron
Without these, Your body can't properly use the vitamin D you're getting.
Even worse?
Taking high doses of D3 without these co-factors can lead to:
- Calcium deposits in arteries
- Kidney stones
- Magnesium depletion
- Hormone imbalances
- Joint problems
So what's the solution?
1️⃣ Get REAL Sun Exposure
- 15-30 minutes of midday sun
- As much skin exposed as possible
- No sunscreen (don't burn!)
- Regular small doses > occasional long sessions
2️⃣ Focus on Co-Factors
- Eat grass-fed liver for vitamin A
- Add grass-fed butter for K2
- Take magnesium (preferably topical)
- Include zinc-rich foods like oysters
- Consider a boron supplement
3️⃣ Test Don't Guess
- Get your D levels checked
- Monitor calcium levels
- Check magnesium RBC
- Track vitamin A status
Remember: Nature provides vitamin D in perfect balance through sunlight. No supplement can perfectly replicate this.
