Hi. So...I have MCTD w/APS. They don’t know which came first, but do know the APS is high platelets, not low. There is zero medical information about ‘treatments’ for my condition, and I had a major allergic reaction to hydroxychloroquine, because it’s sulfa based. Although classified as a type of Lupus, the treatment plan is different and well, should be in the same wheelhouse. Getting no advice from doctors, as this condition is deteriorating my body and muscles, I opted to take vitamin D, C, and Zinc daily. It’s helped me with the Covid thing, I’ve not had a cold or flu for the six years I’ve been taking the vitamin combination. I’ve obstained from getting the V. Because I have no idea how my body would reacted to it’s ingredients. I wish there was a treatment for me. The polymytosis causes me much pain. Vitamin D is not enough, sorry.

Or we untake the 'vacc's' over the last 40 yrs. You know, when liability was dropped for pharmaceutical companies. It corresponds exactly with a rise in autism, IBS, nervous issues... You want a control? Look at the Amish community, they aren't plagued by these things. They don't get vaccinated. And don't give me that 'Correlation is not causation' BS. That is a cowardly cop-out. Correlation tells us there is something going on...Science. Down with the Murderer ICU 'doctors' that let their coof patients die for money. Down with the Ignorant Empire.

we should do a study to check if vitamin D reduces cancer, in fact vitamin D is more present in the body in summer since the sun on the skin allows it to be synthesized. It is possible that the presence of a lot of vitamin D is a signal for the body that we are in summer, therefore that we are in abundance of fruits and vegetables, therefore of food, therefore that the body can afford to spend a little more energy for the immune system but also to fuel the DNA repair mechanisms that prevent cancer. That's why I think there's a chance that vitamin D lowers the rate of cancer.

Are you serious did they expect people in their 50s and 60s to develop any autoimmune disease when 90% of cases happen between the age of 20 and 40 years old? I am also pretty sure the same results happen when following up on cancer rates. All this is saying is that vitamin D does straighten the immune system which in the first place proves that there are no autoimmune diseases but rather an immune system trying to fighr something it cant seem to overcome yet.

I suffered with pretty bad UC since 2007. Went on prednisone, Remicade, Humria... etc... for years, which only kind of controlled symptoms. I even took Vit D daily and my levels were on the lower end normal range. In 2019, my doc suggested we get my vit D levels up to upper normal range. So I started taking 20,000iu a day for a month, and shockingly, my UC went into remission.... completely. I was able to come off all other drugs for the UC. Now, in 2022, I'm still in remission, but I also need to continue taking 10,000iu a day. Any less and things start getting bad again. It's been a life-changer, and I'm so grateful for my doctor discovering this with me. Edit: March 2024 and still not had any hint of UC coming back. Still taking my 10,000iu a day. Again... I can't express how thankful I am every day I've not had to live with UC.

I've got an autoimmune disease and a few years back I would suddenly pass out if I even slightly exerted myself physically. Found out I had severely low vitamin D levels, so low my liver had begun to become damaged. For those last few years I've been on vitamin D tablets and probiotics (kefir or any lactobacillus strains in pills). With my immune system I haven't been able to eat a lot of foods , even foods I used to be able to eat, I'd get chronically sick, chronic tonsilitis, I'd be fatigued and it was ruining my ability to do anything. After religious probiotics and vitamin D for about 3 years now I'm significantly better. I rarely get sick and if I do it's so minor it's not even worth taking time off work. I somehow haven't caught covid yet. I can eat things I never used to be able to without reactions, I'm not chronically fatigued, I haven't had a chronic bout of tonsilitis in those 3 years. My stomach lining and intestines were covered in ulcers which are now gone. I would say I'm close to being able to claim I'm completely recovered. I struggled with an invisible disease for over 10 years that was ruining my entire life and I didn't see it ever going away. I definitely feel vitamin D plays a huge role as well as lactobacillus in fixing our immune systems when something is wrong. The studies of lactobacillus and mental health and vitamin D are showing some promising and huge breakthroughs and my mental health and ability to deal with stress are vastly better than they've ever been and more robust. I urge anyone to give these a shot if you're having issues

By the way . I was low in Vit D post trip to Hawaii and lots of sun ☀️ so already on 1000 units daily . I now take 2000 units and also been doing ‘blue light therapy ‘ for seasonal depression for 18 years . I recommend this doctor to all and he is in my opinion , the King of Medicine ! Accolades

I feel for you man. I don't know if this will help, since your joints have probably been damaged by the arthritis(?), but maybe you can get it into remission. I would stay on the meds they are giving you and supplement with Vit D. Here is my story - I was stricken with hashimoto's thyroiditis (autoimmune disease) shortly after I turned 40. Synthroid got my thyroid levels back to normal, but I still felt horrible. I am always fit and active -6'1 175lbs, cycling, play golf, hockey etc. Muscles ached after exercise, very poor recovery afterward. Saw an endocrinologist, rheumatologist, internal medicine specialist, and did a sleep study since I wasn't sleeping well. Nothing helped. After 3+ years of that with zero positive results, I saw an ad for "sunshine medicine", Vitamin D. Only 1 doctor checked my Vit D levels and said they were a bit low. I started taking 3000 iud per day and saw a huge improvement in my health. I now take 4000 iud per day and feel great - turning 55 this year. More background info - I live in Canada, began using sunscreen more often at 35 as well as getting outside less during the summer at this age (kids, work). My father also suffered from Rheumatoid arthritis and Sarcoidosis (both auto immune) beginning around the same age as me and my troubles, he was also getting out less in the summer. I don't think I would overload Vitamin D like some suggest, but 4000 iud works for me during the winter and I make sure I'm getting some natural Vitamin D (sun!) in the summer. I also don't stress about sunscreen in the summer unless I'm out for longer periods of time. One more note, If I get it on sale at Costco, I think it costs me .09 cents per day. People still don't believe me when I tell them my improvement is because of Vitamin D, even my family doctor thinks I'm feeling better because I'm exercising more.

Include megadoses of magnesium, add kelp for iodine to balance your thyroid and i also use colloidal silver water to spray on and make my own skin treatments using extra virgin unrefined organic coconut oil and shea and cocoa butters. To this i add frankincense, lavender, peppermint, and tea tree essential oils, ALWAYS THERAPEUTIC GRADE. This works better for me than anything any doctor has EVER PRESCRIBED. I also add essential oil of hellichrysum for the inflammation and bc it brings a cooling and shrinking sensation when i'm swollen. Many people with psoriatic arthritis love eo of wintergreen for a rub and don't even dilute it. I prefer putting it in a carrier oil so it doesn't overpower me and burn my eyes.

I take one tablet of 10,000 international units of vitamin D five times a week along with zinc, pholic acid and magnesium and I’ve not been sick in three years. I was diagnosed with neuroendocrine cancer and had surgery to remove tumours in my small intestines in January 2020 age 50. My mother is diagnosed and living with Lupus. Her mother died of neuroendocrine cancer. I made a huge change to my way of life I eat super clean , exercise and of course take my vitamins. My whole life I’ve had allergies at age 50 after these lifestyle changes they are completely gone. My energy levels are through the roof and I’ve turned back the clock on my body at least 10 years. Illness changes you but never let it define you. If you happy being miserable and have an attitude of defeat that’s sad ! Anyways there’s my rambling to some random video lol

This showed up in my feed and normally I would never click on this, with YT's record of charlatans, falsehoods, especially during the pandemic, where it's only gotten worse. Was therefore surprised how detailed and well-founded this was. I had to go back to my bookshelf and dig out some of my old statistics textbooks! 🤓My main take-away is that it confirms what our GP has encouraged us for years. He has been working on and observing the effects of high-dose VitD for years. Getting annual blood tests, he had observed lingering immune issues with me and had me go on 5,000IU of VitD for several years now. The results in my anecdotal case are quite remarkable, with the immune markers improving measurably. My wife is on 2,000IU as a maintenance dosis. Both in our late 50s but very healthy compared to many of our friends and acquaintances. So this study does indicate that our VitD intake may well help!

My LLMD as in Lyme Litterate Medical Doctor put me on 5000 I/U of a prescription grade vitamin D years ago because my D was very low. He then diagnosed me with chronic Lyme disease in 2013. Through the multiple appointments I had with him the high dosage D I’m on helps me not have Lyme rage problems and experience autoimmune disease which he said that I was at risk of having Lyme disease for decades. My tick bite was around 1983 +/- a year. Diagnosis was 2013. I’m in my middle 50’s. I’m one of the first people in Minnesota to get Lyme disease.

Another fallacy is that Vit D levels are only low in northern latitudes, in fact the highest levels are in hot sunny countries with Pakistan, Saudi leading the pack. Combination of dress code and intense temperatures lead to virtually 100% skin coverings.

Another great video. From what I am gathering from this research, prevention of autoimmune disease is certainly within reach. As Benjamin Franklin used to say “An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.” By the way, the relationship between BMI and reduced efficacy of vitamin D3 was expected due vitamin D3 being fat soluble and accumulating in adipose tissue rather than circulating. For those with higher BMI, a higher dose of vitamin D3 may be needed to obtain the same prophylactic results. Thanks for the great job you are doing.

I also decided on a dedicated B complex formula daily, even though I was taking B vitamins in a multivitamin. Since then I have been in good shape.

@@snowbird6855 I had a breakthrough with the RA when I included fasting. I can get into remission from a severe flare with 5 to 7 days of fasting, which I can then maintain with a vegan diet. I discovered years ago that fasting put me into remission, but didn't understand why it was happening or how to maintain it once I started eating again. In 2016 Yoshinori Ohsumi won the Nobel Prize for Medicine for his work on autophagy and I saw him being interviewed shortly after. One of the things he said he discovered was that in autoimmune disease the autophagy mechanism was defective and that you could force it to work with fasting. That's why the fasting works, so when you combine it with a diet that doesn't cause the disease to flare again you can maintain remission for long periods of time as long as you do top up fasts. My top up fasts are 72 hours long. This is based on the work of Prof. Valter Longo of the University of Southern California, who was a nominee for the Nobel Prize for Medicine the same year Yoshinori won it. He found you can reset the immune system with a 72 hour fast. You kill off defective immune cells and new ones are generated. It's worth taking a look at both of their work to see what you can take away from it to help your niece. Obviously, it would depend on whether it was possible for her to fast with her condition, and it's best to get adapted to running on ketones before doing a long fast. It can be gruelling to do if you're body isn't used to using ketones for fuel.

I've been on 5000mg of vitamin D supplements for 18 months now and my levels have improved a bit but still low. Recently my specialist expressed that she believes that I Initially contracted covid ( I was slightly unwell in late November 2020 but covid symptoms at that time was unknown) she thinks this developed into long covid and because on my vitamin D deficiency, it developed into transverse myelitis.

Of course, talk to your doctor first, but I had pretty bad UC since 2007. In 2019 my doc had me start taking a much higher daily dose of vit D... within a month I was in complete remission and was off humira. It's now 2022 and I'm still in remission. ❤

@@TrevorD19: Well, my microbio prof still suggested 4k-5k IU supplementation, esp during winter months when ppl don't go outside as often, why flu season is in the winter, but also over exposure to UV/ skin aging/ cancer etc. Incidentally, I've also heard about the importance of vitamin D in development of vision in children. Over-prevalance of nearsightedness is apparently due to too many children staying indoors not getting enough vit D. But they also say life time of sun damage to skin occurs by age 10, so kids could also use vit D supplements.

...I use to have very bad psoriasis coverage. Had plaques all over my body, face, inner ears and scalp. Suffered for 40 years with expensive medications that rarely worked that well. Cleared the patches up with a combination of : Vitamin D3 and Fish Oil oral supplements. Stress management (started yoga and walking after work to help me destress). Plus also combined that with Dietary Modifications (I identified certain inflammatory triggers, things like excessive sugar intake, nightshades, cheese, and gluten). Took just under a year to completely clear. Had the occasional flare afterwards, until I started to also supplement with a Zinc & Vitamin C combo power (started it to help reduce flu symptoms), and noticed since I added the Zinc, all flares have completely ceased. It will be 14 years this year since I cleared. From my own experiences, I would suggest : avoiding any food triggers, and supplementing with Vitamin D3, Fish Oil and Zinc. These three really are vital I think. Also if you can afford it, a good quality Marine Collegan powder may also be beneficial.

I was stricken with hashimoto's thyroiditis (autoimmune disease) shortly after I turned 40. Synthroid got my thyroid levels back to normal, but I still felt horrible. I am always fit and active -6'1 175lbs, cycling, play golf, hockey etc. Muscles ached after exercise, very poor recovery afterward. Saw an endocrinologist, rheumatologist, internal medicine specialist, and did a sleep study since I wasn't sleeping well. Nothing helped. After 3+ years of that with zero positive results, I saw an ad for "sunshine medicine", Vitamin D. Only 1 doctor checked my Vit D levels and said they were a bit low. I started taking 3000 iud per day and saw a huge improvement in my health. I now take 4000 iud per day and feel great - turning 55 this year. More background info - I live in Canada, began using sunscreen more often at 35 as well as getting outside less during the summer at this age (kids, work). My father also suffered from Rheumatoid arthritis and Sarcoidosis (both auto immune) beginning around the same age as me and my troubles, he was also getting out less in the summer. I don't think I would overload Vitamin D like some suggest, but 4000 iud works for me during the winter and I make sure I'm getting some natural Vitamin D (sun!) in the summer. I also don't stress about sunscreen in the summer unless I'm out for longer periods of time. One more note, If I get it on sale at Costco, I think it costs me .09 cents per day. People still don't believe me when I tell them my improvement is because of Vitamin D, even my family doctor thinks I'm feeling better because I'm exercising more.

My hunch is that while we may be genetically predisposed to develop various autoimmune disorders, vitamin D deficiency is associated with a state that is ill-equipped to fight or rectify those disorders. In my case, this bears out anecdotally, in that after supplementing Vitamin D during the pandemic has cleared my medium/moderate psoriasis to an extent that I have not seen since developing it, thirty years ago. It angers me to no end, to think that for all those years, I needlessly suffered self-image issues, simply because Big Pharma had conditioned my physicians to diagnose /treat a "pharmaceutical deficiency" rather than simply correcting my nutritional status.

I also have been taking zinc (15mg /day) for over 10 years - I am absolutely convinced that Zinc prevents colds and chest infections. So was very interested in this presentation for autoimune diseases, for which IBD is now highly correlated. Thanks, I shall continue with the Vit D and see its effect on flare ups.

I added 100mg of Zinc and 500mg of Vitamin C along with 4000iu of D3 and 2000 of B12 (sublingual). I am the only person in my family who did not get covid19 or any other cold or flu. Also, I am convinced the Zinc has helped in a major way to reduce the effects of rosacea on my face as I am of Irish descent and have been told that is why I have such a nasty case of rosacea. I also wash my hair and face with Selsun Blue Medicated shampoo to keep the rosacea at bay. A bottle of that shampoo costs around $8 and a bottle lasts for a few months. Monthly pharmaceutical treatment is around $120 per month. The Walmart version of Selsun Blue works for me at a dollar or so less. The Meijer version does not seem to work even though all three have the same level of the active ingredient that treats this adult acne.

Thank YOU, Dr. Roger Seheult! You were the first one I listened to early in March 2020 and started taking D3 and took 4000IU a day and then took up to 8000 Iu during the height of covid but unfortunately without K2 but I took zinc, Vitamin C and Quercetin and I was taking Synthroid for my thyroid and noticed that my joints esp my knees hurt a lot. I then stopped taking thyroid meds for a few days and right away noticed my joints were so much better and stopped taking synthroid for 2 weeks and felt really well. Then I started taking synthroid again and again got pain in my joints. I repeated the testing by going off the synthroid and even told my doctor who told me I was imagining it. This is my own testing, on myself. I will be going for a blood test for my thyroid after I have been off synthroid for 4 wks to 6 wks and then see what the results say.

According to Vitamin D researchers such as the late Dr. Heaney of Creighton University, PhD. Bruce Hollis of the Medical Center of South Carolina and PhD. Michael Holick of the Boston University Medical Center a daily intake of 2000 IU's is still a very low amount of Vitamin D. They all do/did a great job explaining the specifics on lectures they presented which can be found on KZfaq.

Excellent discussion of this profoundly important research Roger. I think the results would have been even more conclusive had they given vitamin D to infants predisposed to type 1 diabetes. Measurement of blood markers can identify infants that are predisposed. Ensuring these infants have optimal serum concentrations of immunoregulatory vitamin D: 110 nmol/L (Pierrot-Deseilligny and Souberbielle (2017) ). I feel using T1D would be more demonstrative bc as infants they wouldn't have any long term autoimmune processes already underway. In the study you present the subjects were adults and any AI process would have been well established. By age 8 a prevention of T1D will have occurred and can be documented. The Finns have demonstrated prevention of T1D with effective vitamin D supplementation in dairy products. (Makinen et al 2014) and (Harjutsalo et al 2013). MS and T1D have identical disease markers and a prevention of one is a proxy for the prevention of the other, As a bonus the modulation of the adaptive immune system by reducing cytokine storm, T cell and macrophage activity against self in autoimmune disease can be applied to Covid-19. These same markers are present in spades when the symptoms of C-19 become severe. Which they won't if an individual has adequate levels of immunoregulatory vitamin D (Castillo et al 2020 and Nogues et al 2021).

I understand the lower BMI factor being critical to supplement success, however, I feel the daily Vitamin D3 supplementation levels are still pitiably low even at 4000 IU. What about 10,000 IU or 15,000 IU daily? Maybe the Omega-3 fish oil amount needs to be increased exponentially as well in obese patients. This is why well-designed studies need to factor in all of the pertinent variables before possibly incorrect conclusions are drawn. Heavier, obese individuals have been well proven to need more supplementation, especially when talking about fat-soluble vitamins and minerals. This aspect needs to be examined more closely undoubtedly so we can know the real truth. I would also suggest that the patient's Vitamin D3 blood level must be tested and known before, during, and after all supplementation. Calcium levels as well also. If the participant's blood level of Vitamin D is below 50 ng/ml it can be clearly argued that they are not taking enough Vitamin D3 or not getting sufficient sunlight exposure. (Morbidly obese patients may require a blood level of 75 ng/ml or even 100 ng/ml possibly) I think this is especially critical for individuals with a high BMI index not to mention all patients to a somewhat lesser degree.
