After being diagnosed with the following: MS, ALS, Chemical immunodeficiency, arthritis,, I had a doc run a simple Vit-D test. My Vitamin D level was almost non-existent. For the next 3 months I took a 20,000 IU tablet once a week, and took 4000 IU Vit-d3 tabs daily. Within three months, all my symptoms had almost vanished.
So, in my case, 4000IU’s was the daily dose. I still take 2000IU daily. It’s amazing what this particular chemical controls in the body.
Yes, it is amazing! Thank goodness for you that your Doctor was up on the wonders of vitamin D!
I’m hearing more and more good things about vit. D! I will never stop taking it!
That’s interesting that you have been diagonosed with such autoimmune diseases, as my mom has MS and I have psoriasis and both of our doctors have recommended boosting out Via D intake.
I love being outside and enjoy the sunlight, but my mom has very fair skin and tries to avoid direct sunlight. In the winter months, I go to a tanning bed 1-2 times a week, which keeps my P symptoms in check. I’m not sure how good of a source of Via D it is, but it has significantly helped. She has been taking Via D for about 2 months now, watched her diet and lost about 23 pounds and I believe a combination of that has really helped her.
I’m glad to hear that somone else with similar problems has had success with Via. D. That gives us both hope.
