Look at Australians 55 years old and older they look like weather worn , you have to be so careful in the sun in this country, you can just about feel your self burning , throw smoking i n the mix and yeah you have a lot of people who look way older than what they are, and that is never a good look.
You are Who??? Never heard of you
I’d rather keep seeing you guys in the videos than the newer guys. They just don’t feel very Mind Pump, and I tend to skip anything with them in it at this point. I’m sure they’re wonderful people, but they seem like they’d appeal to a demographic younger than what your podcast demographic probably is. If that’s the intent, great, but that probably means I’ll be sticking to the podcast then. Keep it up!
Vitamin D deficiency has been defined by the Institute of
Medicine and an Endocrine Society practice guideline as a
level of serum 25-OH vitamin D less than 20 ng/mL (1,2).
The Endocrine Society went on to further define vitamin D
insufficiency as a level between 21 and 29 ng/mL (2).
You ARE my favorite! Good to see you back. 😀
Sal, can you please get back on the video training horse and ride us to them gains??
I been taking 2 pills of cod liver every day of my life…but most ppl never heard of it
Tofu makes me sick
The mushrooms need to be placed in the sun before consuming for optimum vitamin d in the mushrooms.
Thanks for this..Sal.
All this November weather is making it really hard to keep motivated.
I suspect sunlight and Vit D have a LOT to do with it.
Would you recommend the JUUV or any similar product?
I assume the near infrared spectrum, is no way enough..
Cheers from Portugal !
It could be any number of things, but last winter I had a diet including many of the mentioned foods above and 10,000 iu of a D3 pill every other day and seemed to have better mood and energy throughout. Could have been because of raised hormone levels, or a milder Michigan winter!?
What’s the rda for adult men?
It is very Helpful https://www.themeaningofwellness.com/the-most-effective-benefits-of-vitamin-d-you-should-know/
I ride my bike everyday during lunch for one hour. Great video Sal❤️❤️❤️
I give my girl vitamin D on the regular
Yes, all true, mine is at 27, so I’m really fatigued and have been anxious for no reason. Taking D3 with fat at 3k but may do more. Sucks. But I think vegans usually do the liquid supplement. Should I do liquid instead of pills?
Great info!
This is helpful. Mine vitamin D is 17.9 which that is not normal
Your a moron there are thousands of prisoners who get 1 hr of sunshine a day for 30 years on a bad diet and they do not suffer low levels of vit d there are people that live in the north of the world were they get 6months of darkness every year again they do not suffer with vit d levels your talking out your arse do some research first before you start talking alot of crap
great video thank you
world leading expert in vitamin D says above 70 and below 100 is optimal
I have no problem with this working outside during spring and summer
My Dr includes a D test in their standard blood workup.
I was *dead tired* a few weeks ago, blood tests showed very low levels of Vitamine D. Bought a good supplement + ate sardines daily. My fatigue is almost gone a few weeks later! And yes, I felt anxious for no reason too, gone now.
Thanks for the information. I didn’t know egg yolks have vitamin D. Where I live now, Denmark, is pretty shitty in this time of the year, since there is little to no sunlight and the sun sets early and raises late.
But, as you said, if nothing can be done through food or sunlight, I can always supplement, which I will think about, since I do think I already have enough of vitamin D which I get from foods.
Great information. The following video describes the research demonstrating how vitamin D is critical in all stages of COVID-19 as well as why vitamin D stops the cytokine storm and blood clotting.https://youtu.be/sjyZH3Ib4Ws
Great to see you back in the videos brother! Hope you been well Sal!
"scientist call it a hormone" because it IS a hormone. I find it interesting that you would say that the best way to get it is by getting enough sun without bothering to say anything about when, where and how much. I can only guess that you don’t know. It’s created in out skin with exposure to UVB .Depending on your geographical location and the time of year, you could stand outside with no clothing on in the afternoon clear blue sky for hours and still produce ZERO D because UVB just does not reach the earths surface. IE Canada from November- March zero UVB reaches the surface of the earth and hence zero D can be made. Also, why you are going to say get it from food and listing fortified foods. That’s just a supplement in your food. Just skip right to taking the supplement.
This is exactly what I talk about in this video:

There is no sun in the UK😫
Why am I just now seeing this. Thank you for the information!
There is D3 supplements for vegans. You are spreading incorrect information. A simple google search or a trip to the grocery store will show that.
Ok I like Tofu
Glad more people who can influence are getting the word out about the need to keep vitamin D levels in check! I am also glad that "mainstream" doctors are finally getting on board with checking Vitamin D and recognizing D3 over D2 to help with deficiencies. A few years ago when my daughter went in for a physical to participate in high school sports, I asked the doctor to check her levels and discovered her levels were very low. After a couple/few weeks, her mood and energy levels were up noticeably! If you have a teenager you know to celebrate when they are not grouchy and not bumping heads with her so much was good for my energy levels, too 😉 Now she has it checked yearly and is able to buy over the counter D3 to manage it.
SAL!!!!!!! Dude, its good to see you again!
What’s the best vitamin D3 supplement I can buy and is it true I need to add a probiotic to vitamin D in order for it to absorb in my body?
Thank you for the information. It was helpful.
how do we know if we getting enough vitamin D in sunshine? your topic focusing much on the meds.
Great info. Thanks for this Vit D video you have created for us
Wow, you are a very handsome man!! Haha!! I noticed I had low VD when I got a few cavities and was exhausted all the time. It’s common for people in AZ to develop low vitamin d in the summer because it’s so hot no one wants to be outside!!
