With such a high dose how do you prevent calcium from getting into the wrong places? What other supplements do you take?
What benefits are you seeing from this?The main rules to avoid hypercalcemia are;
- At least 2.5L of water every day to help flush the calcium (I take 3.0L)
- No calcium supplement or supplement that contain calcium
- No dairy (milk, cheese, etc.)
- No nuts
- No NSAIDs (advil, etc.) - its tough on the kidneys
- Max 500mg vitamin C per day
- 1000mg of magnesium chloride to avoid magnesium depletion and all associated symptoms (it is needed for converting D3)
- Blood test every 2 months for calcium/creatinine (you need to be followed by a doctor)
- I also take Boron, B12, Methyfolate, Omegas, selenium, chromium
- Note: K is useless at these levels
An interesting fact: If I take one riboflavin-5-phosphate (50mg) cap per day instead of 3 regular 100mg riboflavin caps, I can cut my D3 dose by 5 and achieve the same treatment benefits. It doesn't lower the risks of hypercalcemia though, it just "lowers" the level at which it can happen...
What benefits are you seeing from this?
Incredible. Thank you for sharing.It would be long to explain it all but in a few lines;
- MS relapses length were 12 weeks before I started, then started to decrease to 4 weeks, and then 1 week as I adjusted the D dose
- Now 1 year relapse free
- Before treatment my relapses were horrible; difficulty to swallow, difficulty to walk, heavy limbs, had to push on my legs to go up the stairs, bunch of muscle weaknesses, extreme fatigue, etc. but after I started they all became very light, it was more a light fatigue than anything else
- Wasn't able to do anything useful of my life, was only able to watch TV all day, couldn't make me lunch, huge brain fog, had to quit my job; now I am working part time, I drive 2 hours every day and I am back to being useful in the house, use the snowblower for the first time this year, etc. I spend time with my kids and everything..my mind is also crystal clear
- Some muscle weaknesses went away after I had them for 12-14 months, when normally they say that after 6 months they are permanent
- Some days I can forget I have MS and I am still improving, I should be symptom free later this year
That is pretty much it :) it actually works with any autoimmune disease
I took megadoses of Vit D (10,000 IU daily) and ended up in the hospital with HYPERCALCEMIA (too much calcium in the blood, which can shut kidneys down.) Was hospitalized for a few days as the hospital administered diuretics for me to urinate all the Calcium out. Everything was fine otherwise and I did not feel ill, but was rushed to the ER anyway.
Vit D must be balanced with the other fat soluble Vitamins A/E/K.
Incredible. Thank you for sharing.
What is you magnesium chloride source? Liquid, powder?
What symptoms did you have to cause you to be hospitalised?
You take omega fish oils?The main rules to avoid hypercalcemia are;

No symptoms other than serum Calcium level of 15. Anything higher than 10 is potentially damaging.
I did not go to the ER because I was experiencing symptoms, I went to the ER because I was getting routine bloodwork and my doctor got an alert that there was something off with my lab results. He called me and woke me up in the middle of the night and advised me to check myself into the ER.
I've never heard of anyone calling 10,000IU a megadose.I took megadoses of Vit D (10,000 IU daily)
How much calcium, vit A and vit K were you getting at the time?
Maybe 1000 IU from a multivitamin and 0 Vit K2.
You take omega fish oils?
Thank you for collecting those. Is this based on Coimbra's protocol for M and S?The main rules to avoid hypercalcemia are;
- At least 2.5L of water every day to help flush the calcium (I take 3.0L)

Almost any animal or plant food exposed to direct sunlight at or around high noon (11:30 a,m. is ideal) stores "natural" vitamin D and its homologues (not recognized by mainstream science) for a minimum of two or three days (often longer).So what's natural vitamin D? LOL
Are these the only 2 markers that need to be looked out for? Also, where can someone find this protocol?- Blood test every 2 months for calcium/creatinine (you need to be followed by a doctor)
