Vitamin D

Dr John Campbell creates so many good videos that it would be tedious to bring them all to the attention of Harrumpfers. Instead, I urge you to follow his feed.

I have for some years been taking a Vitamin D3 supplement, consisting of a single 1000IU capsule per day. I did this on the advice of my GP, following a blood test which revealed I was deficient. After seeing Dr Campbell’s latest video, I now take 5000 units per day.

Campbell has in the past covered extensively the subject of Vitamin D, and its role in supporting our ability to resist infection. However, in this video he interviews Professor David Anderson, who has researched Vitamin D in depth, and written a book about it, and who explains in compelling detail why most people live with a deficiency of Vitamin D, and why ample Vitamin D levels are not only vital to our resistance to all manner of infections and cancers, but especially important in combatting the Sars Covid-2 virus.

As Prof Anderson makes clear, anyone who has had mRNA jabs has, while receiving negligible protection from Covid infection, compromised their immune system, and should take, as a matter of routine, at least 5000 units a day of VitaminD3.

For those of us, like me, who received a single (2 jab) course of the Astra-Zeneca vaccine with great reluctance, and under effective duress (life having been made all but impossible should I have refused), and who since declined so-called ‘boosters’ of mRNA products, his excoriation (about 28:00) of what he calls the ‘pseudo-vaccines’ is a particularly authoritative – and welcome – vindication of our scepticism.

  1. Don’t forget the sun – sunlight on the skin is necessary to turn all the raw material in the Vitamin D pill into actual Vitamin D that the body can utilise.

    1. Hmmm – not sure about that. The Prof (and everyone else I have heard on the subject) notes the role of sunlight in the natural production of Vitamin D, and particularly recommends the use of supplements by those living in regions of little sunshine to restore healthy levels. He does not mention the need for sunlight to metabolise those supplements in the way you describe. Indeed, if that were so, people living in Helsinki would be well and truly stuffed every winter, since no matter how they supplemented their Vitamin D levels, they would get no benefit! Do you have any references/links?

      1. Robyn Chuter, a qualified (alt) health practitioner who was brilliant on all things Covid-scam, says sunshine is necessary and that just popping megadoses of Vit D is not enough: https://robynchuter.substack.com/p/the-good-news-about-depression-part-33e

        Yale medicine (who were appalling on Covid), however,says sunshine isn’t necessary: https://www.yalemedicine.org/news/vitamin-d-myths-debunked

        It appears that sunshine is the best source by far but that food is adequate and supplements even better especially in high doses.

        I, too, take a Vit D supplement (the 1,000 unit one) but try to get at least 20 minutes or so of (safe) sun to top it up each day.

        The example of the Finns looks like a good one to say sunshine isn’t strictly necessary.
        The things we learn, eh!

    2. Thanks for that. I had an (admittedly quick) scan of the depression article, and yes, it says there’s no substitute for sunshine for those suffering depression – which I can readily believe. However, I can see no suggestion that sunshine is necessary to convert commercially available Vitamin D into ‘usable’ Vitamin D, as you suggested. I think the best takeaway is – get plenty of sunshine, use only enough sunscreen to prevent burning, and get your blood tested (as I did) for Vitamin D levels – with the high likelihood that you will need to take a supplement. And, if you believe the prof,.treat conventionally-recommended Vitamin D levels as a bare minimum, to be greatly exceeded without risk, and to great benefit.
