Phase 1: Have people quickly experience the benefits of vitamin D

• in less than 1 month

• at very low cost

• virtually no risk

Phase 2: Have people make vitamin D a habit

• Feel much better all of the time

• Greatly reduce the probability of getting many diseases

Protocols when vitamin D deficiency is suspected

Standard protocol for US Doctors; vitamin D2

• Note: Most doctors have less than 10 hours of vitamin D learning

  • Test levels

  • Prescribe 50,000 IU of vitamin D2 once a week for 8 weeks

• Note: Most researchers agree that vitamin D2 is only about 1/3 as effective as vitamin D3

• Vitamin D2 may have more adverse reactions than vitamin D3

VitaminDWiki vitamin D3

• Note: VitaminDWiki provides access to 1,000's of hours of vitamin D information to people and doctors

• Note: Hope to have many vitamin D experts agree with the VitaminDWiki protocol

  • Test levels only if suspect highly deficient

• The cost and effort of testing are large barriers to people improving their health

  • First test for possible vitamin D allergic reaction by taking 5,000 IU and waiting for 3 days

• Approx 1 in 300 people have an adverse reaction to any amount of vitamin D3

• The standard US protocol appears to ignore the possibility of allergic reaction or drug interactions, and starts with 50,000 IU dose

  • Co-factors for vitamin D3 are recommended to virtually eliminate the problems some people have with large amounts of vitamin D

• Note: the standard medical protocol does not appear to consider co-factors (Calcium, Magnesium, Vitamin K2, etc)

• Having the co-factors virtually eliminates the small occurrance of adverse reactions

  • i.e. excess Calcium being deposited in arteries, kidney stones, etc.

Outline of Phase 1

• Person determines their possible vitamin D deficiency CLICK HERE for current version

• If deficient, the person checks the VitaminDWiki for possible drug interactions and contra-indications

• Buy $5 bottle of 5,000 IU capsules of vitamin D

• Take a single 5,000 IU capsule and wait for 3 days - looking for possible allergic reactions (to be described)

  • Approx 1 in 300 people have an adverse reaction to any amount of vitamin D3 - especially if co-factors are imbalanced

• Take a single dose of about 50,000 IU of vitamin D3 and experience the benefits in 5-30 days

  • Will provide a summary of why a single dose of 50,000 is not a risk, with links to many references
