More than 20 bottles on my table. 😂. Still grey hair. Still backpain. Still old. 😅
Thanks for sharing these studies — just a few clarifications for context: The JAMA 2019 study on bone loss with 10,000 IU/day didn’t account for magnesium or vitamin K2 — both essential cofactors for vitamin D metabolism and calcium regulation. The participants were already vitamin D replete, meaning they likely didn’t need additional D3. High-dose D3 can also deplete magnesium, which plays a key role in bone remodeling — so attributing bone loss solely to vitamin D oversimplifies the outcome. Meanwhile, the studies showing increased fall risk (e.g., Sanders 2010) used large bolus doses (100,000–500,000 IU at once), which spike active vitamin D and can destabilize calcium handling. That’s not how most people supplement — especially not for daily maintenance. Bottom line: these studies raise valid points, but the risks primarily apply to replete individuals (Already have adequate levels of D3) taking megadoses without cofactors or using infrequent bolus regimens — not to well-managed daily dosing with proper nutrient support and lab monitoring.
Bit of a cheat to say you only take 3 supplements when one of them has a ton of different things in it.
Just because I take a supplement does NOT in any way mean that you should as well. All 37 studies referenced in the video are linked in the video's description 💊Supplements that Dr Brad takes: https://drstanfield.com/pages/my-supplements 💊MicroVitamin (multivitamin & mineral that I take): https://drstanfield.com/products/microvitamin
What really works for me K2 from Natto, Q10, Mg from Cacao and Ω3 "from Sardines"
Thanks for the update. I really appreciate your constant revision of supplement recommendations based on the latest studies. There are too many people who get stuck on old study data which can be problematic.
VERY much appreciated that you clearly distinguish between “significant” (statistical term), and “effect size” 👌👌
I, for one, greatly appreciate the detail of this video, getting the right dosages of vitamins instead of ‘more is better’ is a no brainer, good thing Dr S is looking out for us🙌💪
Honesty is a must in medicine
Another fantastic report Dr. Brad. And thanks a million for Micro-Vitamin +. Byrne
