I take a D3+K2 supplement.

Me too

I eat beef liver, gently friend in butter, with a mushroom and cream sauce. I might swap out for chicken liver, which is delicious. Alternatively, duck liver pate is a good option, with a seared beef Rib eye steak, with black pepper and rosemary again with that lovely mushroom sauce. If you leave the mushrooms in the sun first then the d level is substantially increased. As a treat some bumbu rum blended with raw egg yolks works well.

That’s nice for you, but my husband doesn’t eat any liver and I don’t eat mushrooms, so I’ll stick to supplements.

I have supplements as well, mainly for when I'm travelling and can't get decent food. The bioavailability of D and K2 in meat and diary is excellent.

Yep, nobody cares what you eat.

Also, a question how do you "friend" beef liver in butter?

The supported paper in this substack was written in 2020.

I recall Dr. Mercola interviewing Dr. Kate Rheaume-Bleue from ON, Canada, who had already written a book on this topic after researching data from two other biochemists. at least ten years ago. Dr. Kate is a Naturopath healer.

In a nut shell; Vit D3 affects the metabolism of Calcium, but without the ability to ensure the Calcium is directed to bones and teeth. Calcium has been shown to accumulate in the arteries. Especially with higher doses of Vit D3. The Vit K2 taken with the Vit D3 helps to direct the Calcium to the bones and teeth, away from the arteries.

Why would there be research studies on nutrients to verify the importance of them for good health? That’s not where the money is and that is especially true with discrediting vitamin D and its role in managing 3000 genes in the human body.

The money is going down the MRNA road for the first 21st century!

Totally agree you won't find a study on nutrients from Pfizer and friends. However, one has to write about something for the doctoral thesis. And profs need to find something to publish (or perish). There are small niches to fill...(way too small, for certain.) I'm glad sometimes a nutrient as therapy topic appeals to someone, somewhere. And acknowledge there is danger in certain studies which might be designed to shine a poor light on nutrients in general or target an area.

A healthy diet as recommended by doctors is usually fatal. Doctors are not trained in nutrition or health. They are trained in disease treatment with drugs and surgery. How can vegetables provide vitamin D? They are not a source. Vitamin K is fat soluble. How can humans absorb it from foods that have no fat content?

I totally agree. People don't get chronically sick because of insufficient vitamin and mineral supplements, it's actually because they don't eat nutrient dense food. There has been a very successful propaganda campaign since the 60's by the Church Of the 7 Day Adventist, a group of anti-meat religious zealots behind the Kellogs company that think meat makes men rape and kill, and theyshould eat grain for breakfast instead of ham and eggs. They have setup hospitals around the world and have funded endless studies into proving how bad animal products are. If you are looking for a source of the stupidity for doctors crazy ideas, this would be a good start.

I have seen many, many scientists and doctors say there are parasites in some vials. Could it be that these are experimental vials and Ivermectin being used would ruin the experiment. Could that be why they were so violently against its use or another factor?

For a person eating a healthy diet, on a nicely supplemented diet, or had natural immunity, how can it possibly be proven that an experimental drug prevented them from a hospital stay?

It could have been their lifestyle or natural immunity instead. It was not studied whether those unvaxxed in the hospital had poor nutrition.

Assumptions and assertions were made, and people were buying.

You got it.

Since K1 promotes clotting and is particularly contraindicated in C19, glad all here know it is D3 and K2. Perhaps Dr A you could make the edit for the uninitiated?

Expand full comment

I don't claim any expertise in this, but my quick search indicates it is related to normal clotting to stop bleeding, not harmful internal clotting. I may be wrong.

PS. If you find a paper on C9 and advice re K1, love to read. Thanks!

Expand full comment

Glad to learn differently if that is so with C19, whose Spike protein etc such a wicked player. My concern is that K2 is needed for safety to offset the higher doses of D3 to achieve a protective level, so want all to know to get that one for sure!

K2?

Back in 2020-03-23 the following in Fox news opinion piece titled:

"Former CDC Chief Dr. Tom Frieden: Coronavirus infection risk may be reduced by Vitamin D" where he wrote "We can do lots of things to improve our resistance to infection. Taking a multivitamin that includes Vitamin D, or a Vitamin D supplement, probably can’t hurt, and it might help."

The organisation "Resolve to Save Lives" where he was and still is president and CEO followed with a comment about 10 days later on 2020-04-02 with the title: "Statement on Vitamin D" where they back pedal and say in full "All of Dr Frieden's statements about Vitamin D are intended to inform the public about scientific data and not to promote any product or medical treatment. There is still much to learn about COVID-19.

The best way to prevent COVID-19 is to wash your hands frequently, cover your cough, follow local government guidance to shelter in place, and consult with a clinician if feeling ill." to replace sound scientific advice with central control narrative.

We are not particularly surprised by this change though because of who sponsors the organisation which is visible in the Fox piece "He is currently president and CEO of Resolve to Save Lives, a global non-profit initiative funded by Bloomberg Philanthropies, the Chan Zuckerberg Initiative, and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation and part of the global public health organization Vital Strategies."

I think we can safely say that he spoke out of turn when he shared scientific data and has not done so since.

If you do a search for his name and vitamin you will find a flurry of posts in March and April 2020 relating to Vitamin-D probably all stemming from a single interview and even one relating to a earlier epidemic that shows he was aware of the benefits for immune support but since then I could not find any.

From this you can see how compromised and captured individuals get shut up in 10 days by their sponsors if they stray from the narrative of fear and profitable patent remedies.

Links in the comments for those that care.
