    Do you have any risk factors for a vitamin D deficiency, or any of the deficiency symptoms? Having an office job and living in NZ where the sun is very harsh - I struggle to spend enough time in the sun. I do however take some vitamin D every day. Let me know your experience.

    Atroya Swoopes Try D3 instead of D2. Also daily dosage (4K -10K) may work better than a weekly dose. Take it with fish oil on an empty stomach in the morning. In my case, going ( almost) gluten free, dairy free helped my gut absorption. I take Magnesium glycinate 330mg . That’s the only form that I have taken and it works well. You could support that with magnesium rich foods. You could google and find a list of such foods. My favorites are spinach, sesame, almonds, pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, chocolate. Hope this helps. ❤️

Did you take higher dose vitamin D to begin with? 2000iu is good for maintenance but may not be enough to treat a deficiency. Make sure you get followup tests done.

    I think Dr Dray (famous youtuber dermatologist) is awesome, but I think she is wrong on applying sun screen all. the. time. Like you say, sun exposure is a good thing. Obviously not to the point of getting burnt, but you work up to it. I would rather have a nice glow than look like a ghost, that's unnatural. And vitamin D actually protects people from the more aggressive skin cancers.

    Vitamin D deficiency has been clearly and very significantly associated with suicidal attempts, with one excellent scientific study finding well over half of those attempting suicide to be significantly deficient in Vitamin D. Therefore, given the high prevalence of Vitamin D deficiency globally, (as well as given the proven benefits of proper Vitamin D levels in protecting against COVID-19), all people with serious symptoms of depression (and especially suicidal ideation) should immediately seek a Vitamin D level check from their medical doctor. Moreover, proper Vitamin D treatment does not carry with it the kind of serious side effects of psychiatric drugs. Accordinly, given the high prevalence of Vitamin D deficiency globally, I cannot rule out that Vitamin D deficiency is a major undiagnosed cause of psychiatric symptoms and just one of many reasons, in addition to psychiatric iatrogenesis, that we can expect the World Health Organization's prediction that mental illness will soon be the number one international disease burden, to be a correct prediction.

    I'd suggest that you just start with very low levels of supplements. It's possible that you are just very sensitive to them. Sometimes this can be due to poor detoxification. Have you tried Magnesium glycinate? It's the most calming form of magnesium and the glycine also supports liver function and mental health. Theoretically most of the other forms of magnesium can ramp up mitochondrial (energy) function, and maybe this could impact sleep. Hope these suggestions may help.

    Dr. Sinclair, have you ever heard of anyone experiencing anxiety after using vitamin D. I put a 50 MCG soft shell into water and took some sips out of it after it dissolved. I did this because I think I had some anxiety in the past after taking the three from like a liquid droplet. I decided to try it again. At first there was a kind of boost in energy and motivation but then I'm feeling some anxiety come over me. Any thoughts ?

    Many people claim that you need magnesium to balance vitamin D properly. If you have anxiety that's probably the first supplement I'd recommend.

I'm not seeing clients anymore, so that I can concentrate on creating KZread videos and other educational resources. I want to make this information more accessible for a larger amount of people. Are there any topics that you would like me to create videos on? I'm glad that you've found them helpful. J

    Hi Vivien. What a fabulous question! Yes there are studies showing that sunscreen stops vitamin D production in the skin. The research hasn't to date shown that under a controlled trial that sunscreen use decreases blood vitamin D levels. The research is pretty new as far as I can tell, so nothing is conclusive yet. I haven't done an exhaustive look at the research. However there are observational studies to say that those using sunscreen have lower vitamin D. So sunscreen use is definitely a risk factor for vitamin D deficiency. I'm not advocating for no sunscreen use, just that people need to know that if they use sunscreen that they could be at risk of a deficiency. Did you want to see the research?

Now I'm taking 800iu a day supplements and my knees and lower back hurt, and the depression and weird thoughts have got much worst, I'm hoping all these symptoms are because I've dropped drastically in vit d, and 50,000iu seems so much to me..
