Man dies of vitamin D toxicity — experts warn the risk of overdose is real
Experts are sounding the alarm after a man recently died from a vitamin D overdose. David Mitchener, 89, passed away in suburban London, England, after taking high levels of the supplement for nine…
Once you get past the headlines a different story emerges.
He was 89 years old and had a metric fuckton of issues, all of which take a lot longer to develop than the nine months he had been taking large amounts of Vitamin D.
Maybe he was taking large amounts of vitamin D because he had serious problems and was trying to give himself a little bit longer life. Maybe the vitamin D even helped with that. Maybe (almost certainly) he didn't die because of high amounts of vitamin D in his system, maybe he died with high amounts of vitamin D in his system.
There is zero doubt this is a hit piece on vitamin D. How do you drive up those death numbers in the next "inevitable" electiondemic? Get people afraid of vitamin D.
Yes. I smell a preparation for a new Scamdemic. Vit D is the new Ivermectin.
Vitamin D is life-saving for someone like me who suffered from Chronic Eczema since childhood an absolute blight on my life for over 40 years the only things the MS medical can offer are steroids. I tried everything, fasting, Homeopathy , allergy treatments Nothing worked. Then wonder of wonders Large doses of Vitamin D3 with some K2 to offset the excess Calcium. I cannot describe to you the joy of not wanting to tear your skin to pieces.
This is key. If he had heart issues, they typically will prescribe a calcium blocker. (amlodipine) If he was blasting himself with D3 with no K2, that would explain a lot.
AND that is EXACTLY what I take for my lesions that pop up from time-to-time...SCAREDEMIC is so that people start asking care-givers stupid questions...
That is all!!!
I have not had a bad cold nor covid since dec 2019 and I attribute it to my taking vit d daily, upping the dose if I feel sickness coming on, and keeping my vit d level at 50 or so.....I believe in it....
Damn, I've had some skin problem on my hand that no doc has fixed, maybe I'll try dosing with D.
How much are you taking?
I take 40,000 IU which is 10 tablets and a couple of K2. I do this when a flare-up begins to show signs and when it settles i drop to a maintenance dose of 4 tablets, you just work out what works. This guy Dr Berg on You Tube has done some great research on the use and effects of Vit D3. Good Luck Mate, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NFxQJmvgXOQ
Damn, ok thanks! I'm taking like 2-5 Kirkland vitd which are only 2000iu each, good to know
You might have to change your name.
Well I guess we know what "disease X's" fatal flaw will be.
Well, through their actions they’ve basically confirmed that Vitamin D, red meat, and natural fats are absolutely necessary for good health.
They may try it but at this point I think it would fall flat. It was hard enough to convince SOME of the public that ivermectin is bad. The only people who are going to turn against Vitamin freakin' D are the most diehard media/pharma worshipping leftists.
Sounds a lot like how they demonized hydroxycloroquine (sp) and NAC, and ivermectin.
These people are evil.
Pity we can't store vit D long-term as it's an oil that goes bad.
I guess we have the sun. Though phaggot bill gates wants to block that out as well...
Just like 99% of all the Covid 'deaths'.
ya, definitely died of old age, which is THE BEST WAY to go! we should be dancing for the old guy. Well done!
but the freemason cabal- lucifer runs this planet, can ya'll see it yet? not enough real christians fighting the spiritual battle- or- tis the season jesus spoke of!
Came here to say this. Well done.
They hate all supplements.
The hate us healthy
They hate us
They hate themselves
They hate God.
And God Wins!
“Who wants to play a game of Ultimate Rugpull?”
They don't give a fuck; they just hate supplements because they can't control them and make money off them.
Well, an absence of supplements means health problems which means more prescriptions which means more money.
When you say it that way it almost sounds sinister.
Yup, follow the money.
No they don't. They just hate that YOU take/ have access to supplements.
Don't forget Fauchi even said several times he takes vitamin D supplements. It's not that they don't believe in it. It's just that they don't want YOU to have access to it.
In CA your child cannot go on an overnight trip with vitamins without a prescription. So emergenC packets are contraband.
What the fuck, no way
Straight up Commiefornia.
Why do people live there still?
They must literally not know any better, especially if they were raised there.
Same with CO. I gave my kid melatonin just in case he needed it, and I had to have a doctor write a prescription. So ridiculous. Then he didn't have a choice to take it if he needed it, he was to visit the nurse every night to get it. I mean, it didn't hurt, but it's all or nothing with these things.
Vitamin D comes from the sun. He didn't die from a vitamin D overdose, he died from taking too much of something in a bottle with a label that said Vitamin D..
Maybe why Bill Gates is trying to block the sun.
Not Billy.
Revelation 8:12, 9:2.
Bill “-Gate”s is just trying to take credit.
Exactly. That shit is so fucking toxic you couldn’t pay me enough money to take it. It’s not even a vitamin it’s a hormone that the body produces.
Cholecaliciferol is fucking rat poison chemical in D-con rat poison and they put that shit in there and call it a vitamin
Let's not spread bad info, Cholecaliciferol is the same hormone that your body makes naturally under sun light. Producing it in a lab and taking it as a supplement, assuming there is nothing else in the pill except a simple fat like olive oil which is used to increase absorption rate, then it is perfectly fine to take in normal quantities.
Just to be extra clear, producing synthetic Cholecaliciferol in a lab doesn't automatically make it some toxic material that will hurt you. That's not how chemistry works. Though having said that you do need to ensure you're taking a pure supplement because not every company producing supplements is trustworthy so do your research and ensure the company is providing some kind of independent verification of their products.
You would have to take a stupidly high amount (50k ui+) daily and then not go out in the sun for it to actually cause any problems, excess vitamin D intake is actually negated by sun exposure at normal (read safe) dosage levels.
A lot of research shows that depending on local climate, average duration of daily sun exposure, skin tone, weight, and even if you've been sick recently all make a difference in the amount of vitamin D your body needs for it to function normally. Dark skin doesn't produce the hormone as much as fair skin, heavier people also produce less, if you've been sick then vitamin D is used with white blood cells to help fight infection and is thus used up and gets depleted.
The currently recommended dosage that gets mentioned (400-600 ui daily) is based on research done all the way back in the 1920s for kids to avoid rickets and the suggested daily amount has not been re-investigated since then because they don't care about simple cheap effective medicine.
This article is a hit piece, don't fall pray.

Yeah 400-600 is nothing and bare minimum for survival. I take at least 4000 a day on average as here in the winter I get almost no time in the sun since it's dark when I leave for the office and dark when I leave the office, recently my dad's doc recommended that he take 10,000 a day until his next test as he had low levels this winter. Vitamin D3 is used by the body for many things like generating testosterone, if anything there's a reason right there why they keep telling you that you don't need more vitamin D.
Magnesium is another one where the RDA is too low. They say 400mg/day but I was still getting woken up at night by leg cramps. I found a calculator that said for my body weight I should be taking around 700mg/day, that amount fixed my issue.
Your correct!! The RDA is WAY too low. It would be impossible to get your levels to 100. I have been taking 15000 IU in the summer and 20000 in the winter here in Houston. My last test blood levels were 160+. I haven’t had my usual strep and allergies since 2019 when I started. No clot shot and a mild case of Covid in 2021. I am 76.
Good measured response. Thank you. I just came from a Telegram chat positing the polar opposite. There are characters there, many are substackers, who are also pushing all kinds of no virus / no pathogens / no contagion narratives, as well as anti-supplement content. Some of it is compelling and measured, and of course some is slightly shrill and unhinged.
This has a list of who’s who and what’s what in that particular echo chamber - https://open.substack.com/pub/dpl003/p/supplements-medicine-and-food-the?r=pezuu&utm_medium=ios - which only serves to reinforce the need for continued discernment, research, corroboration and keeping an open mind (but not so much that one’s brain falls to the floor…)
You ignorance of biochemistry is showing. It's the same molecule that your body makes and it doesn't know or care if it's "synthetic" just like your car doesn't care which gas station you got gasoline from (also BTW here's some info from a guy who's worked in oil for over a decade, all gas stations are using a random blend from all brands it's just the way that the pipelines they share work.)

dude was 89 years old:) i would argue the vitamin D probably helped his stay alive a few more months!
Learn how to manage your immune system through diet. Ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine all have naturally occurring counterparts. Look into natto, soursop, noni fruit, and other disease killing foods. Turmeric, fish oil, etc all available OTC.
You’re going grocery shopping anyway. Just swap out a couple things.
This, and more importantly, prayer.
If we lean on the good pharmaceuticals, all they have to do is swap them, or add something.
At one point, Americans treated epilepsy with a very simple compound that cost pennies to make and could cure epilepsy. The devils changed the filler in it to something toxic, then declared it dangerous and replaced it with a “medicine” which lists “death” and “cerebral hemorrhaging” as possible side effects, and charged thousands for it. It has to be taken for life, and if you stop, you die.
It can all be done naturally, and through prayer, it just takes faith to step out of the boat onto water to do it.
Re-read that, with ivermectin instead of “cheap, safe epilepsy compound” in mind, and recall that they’ve already burned down several large ivermectin plants.
Oh my! They managed to find one old man chockfull with morbidity who has died of multiple causes while taking excessive amounts of vitamin D... Meanwhile, On average, it is estimated that around 55 people die from aspirin poisoning in the United States each year versus 20 dying from vitamin D overdose in the same timeframe.
Yes! We all must be protected from dangerous things! Everything dangerous must be banned.
Dihydrogen monoxide is a killer! It must be banned. https://www.dhmo.org/
This is all dripping sarcasm. And DHMO is water.
The reality is that we should ban lawmakers. Their job is to make laws and to endlessly create more and more bureaucratic red tape for people who just want to live their lives and use common sense to avoid danger.

So you’re using soon to be contraband to care for you’re private property (your body). Terrorist behavior. /s
he only triple vaxxed & double boosted as well, lol.
You can die from drinking too much water. They'd love to restrict that.
Nestle has entered the chat.
As long as I don't need an Rx to be out in the sun, I think I'm good...
They would be operating by their playbook tho... Keep everyone on lock down indoors, without exposure to daylight. THEN ban vitamin D. Wait until the plebs get osteomalacia (rickets).
Everybody Dies™
That's why Italy was hit so hard, they don't fortify food there with vitamin D and with people literally restricted to their apartments with the gestapo making sure they didn't leave they got sick more easily.
Well, there was an episode of Star Trek Strange new worlds, season 1. The crew becomes "infected" with some kind of disease cause by the Illyrian need to revert their genetic manipulation. Of course the revert went wrong.
However, the medical bay noticed how Vit D depleted the crew was.
The non-sequitur conclusion of the medical professionals: Let' s concoct a genetically engineered potion to cure the crew. ....
.... Instead of raising their vit D levels.

Do they really want Mexican cartels to be smuggling fentanyl laced vitamins? Because that's how you get Mexican cartels to be smuggling fentanyl laced vitamins.
Sidenote, I take 5,000 IU's of the stuff daily.
Seems like the left loves implementing regulations that lead to bigger black markets which lead to more crime then these craven lawyers have jobs.
That's what I don't get. And similarly I don't get why they want to legalize marijuana, but require prescriptions for vitamin D. Really?
The old time smokers have all said todays weed isn’t the weed of yesterday. It’s highly processed and GMOd. Hybrid seeds and so on. I feel this is why it’s being allowed back into American life. I’ve also heard old timers say they weed is insanely strong.
This is one reason I buy directly from old time growers. We don't know what the pot shop weed has in it and i can testify my grower has been growing for 40 years plus. He grows with seed developed by his father-n-law who grew before that. I smoke for pain relief and whether there is a difference in strength I can't say because. I didn't smoke back in the day. I just trust this family more than the pot shops as I grew up with them. Sticky as all get out.
Wouldn't you think big pharma companies would fight against it, so you take their more expensive pain pills? Or is Monsanto/agribusiness an even more powerful lobbying entity?
Sure looks like it- good catch!
I got a cold every year. Usually a bad one that would lay me up.
I work out in the hot sun all day and when I hit 50 I started getting cramps. Put you down on the ground cramps mostly in my lats. I suspected it was because I was diluting the electrolytes with too much water, so I went online and bought a book by an Australian triathlete about runners cramps.
I was correct in what I suspected, it was diluted electrolytes. I didnt want to do salt tablets so I picked up a supplement with 33% RDA Calcium, 33% magnesium, 25% zinc and 2000 units of D3. I eat about 5 or 6 a day in the summer. Salt and potassium I get from drinking a few V8s a day. No more cramps. (Told my doc and we check those levels twice a year and no probs... also I stop in mid December until it gets warm again).
Funny thing is in the 9 years since I began doing this I havent had a single sniffle. From a sure thing December cold and possible March cold to nothing ever. My D levels usually run about 75 - 80. I can be around sick people at family get togethers and where everyone else catches it, I get away scot free. I laugh at your sneezes and coughs. They have no power over me lol.
Bullchit! 89 years old? Sunlight is the best source of vitamin d!
You can get a blood test at Quest labs, probably other labs also. My wife had a recent Vit D level at 102. They showed the upper limit of normal as 100. Dr. didn't seem to worried about it. She was taking 10,000 units/day of D3.
That's what i'm taking since 5 years.
Thanks for this, I'm going to buy a ton of Vitamins D & K which should be taken together.
Eliminate it because it’s healthy to take 50,000IU weekly. It boosts the immune system.
Immune system is a conspiracy theory. I found that out during Scamdemic 1.0
That can happen with any vitamin.
And D comes from the sun. It's free.
Can we tax the sun then?
When vitamin D is outlawed, only outlaws will have vitamin D. 🤔
Three-quarters (45%) of U.S. teens and adults are deficient in vitamin D, also :
Vitamin D deficiency also leads to low testosterone as it's a precursor for it.
Reminder to go get your dose of sunlight. The power of blue, yellow, red, and infrared rays hitting your skinn is on another level. Your ancestors would tell you to go outside!
Definitely fishy. I get that he might have been going overboard with the vitamin D, but . . . he was 89. Might not that have been a significant factor in his death? It used to be that when someone who was 89 died, people said, "Well, he was a 89," or, "89 is a pretty good run, innit?" or, "He was old and that's what done it." You might even expect someone to say, "Well, he smoked for 63 years," but never "Well, he should have lived a whole lot longer but he was taking too many vitamins." Of course, now the covid jabs have made 24 the new 89 for a lot of people, enthusiasm for vitamins seems like a stupid thing to be worried about.
It would be for any normal person, but no stupid cause is too dumb for a bureaucrat looking to justify his job, or a politician wanting to make a name for himself. It won't be right for the government to make vitamins yet another thing you must have state permission to use, and it should be fought like hell if it looks like they're going to try it, but in the case of vitamin D this kind of control-freakery would come to nothing. People's skin converts sunshine into vitamin D. We can get around the law just by going outside.
89 years old, four other co-morbidities. Yeah, totally the Vitamin D...
Hard to say if the guy died from it with all his other problems but if his blood measured over 100 then it was probably a toxic level of the Vitamin. Vitamin D is very different from Vitamin C. You can take high doses of Vitamin C bc your body doesn’t absorb it. You pee out the excess.
I take extra vitamin D with Boron and Vitamin K for my bones.
During COVID I raised the amount I took to boost my blood level higher. My blood test measured in the 30’s without supplements. I remembering reading somewhere your Vitamin D levels in your blood should measure in the 60’s or higher to protect you from getting sick. Last year I measured 85 and my doctor told me she didn’t want it to go any higher.
But you shouldn’t overdo it either. Taking too much Vitamin D is toxic. Having it higher than 100 in your blood is too much .
One guy takes too much Vit D ----Ban it
Millions die from the Jab---Ignore it
Vit D must be good for Humans
Stock up.
Sun is the best D anyway . You can literally feel your body telling you to be in the sun. People shouldn’t fear it unless you don’t eat meat and live like the globohomos tell you to. Eat stakes and liver and be in the sun . You won’t need any supplements
One death due to someone taking stupid amounts of a vitamin should not be cause to restrict our access to something that is so safe and effective at preventing disease and protecting mental health. They want us sick and depressed.
They point to one death. Over low the issue. Then bam the substance. Problem reaction solution.
Vitamin D isn't killing anyone. Why don't they just contaminate our supplements?
Maybe they already have.
Vitamin D is actually not healthy to take as an artificial "supplement". It is a hormone and interferes with our regulation of iron (which is dangerous). My health dramatically improved when I began to follow the Root Cause Protocol. Vitamin D from sunshine or natural foods only. In fact, zero artificial vitamin supplements, and a traditional / ancestral diet. Morley Robbins, https://therootcauseprotocol.com
Soooooo... I need prescription to go outside in the sun??
Dixs!! Hel no
