Find out how to take vitamins correctly to increase vitamin effectiveness. 0:00 Introduction: Do I need to take vitamins? 0:36 Low stomach acid and vitamin absorption 1:35 The best vitamins for absorption 2:43 Fillers in vitamins and supplements 3:16 Vitamin effectiveness and diet 4:00 Multivitamins 4:29 Vitamin D3 5:36 Vitamins and chronic illness 6:34 Increasing dose to increase vitamin effectiveness Bruce Hollis Interview Video: ▶️ https://youtu.be/QAQ7r6jLEww You may be wondering, do I need to take vitamins? Your body needs around 180 nutrients, and it’s often difficult to satisfy these requirements, especially for vitamin D, magnesium, zinc, and vitamin B3. You can not always identify nutrient deficiencies in the blood. Low stomach acid interferes with vitamin and mineral absorption. If you have low stomach acid, you might also experience problems breaking down food with vitamin B12. Indigestion, heartburn, and SIBO are common symptoms of low stomach acid. Synthetic vitamins aren't the same as natural ones. Do not take synthetic vitamin B12 or B9! Some nutrients need other nutrients to function properly, so taking them in isolated forms rather than a complex can cause problems. Many vitamins contain fillers like maltodextrin that compete for nutrients such as vitamin C. Vitamin B1 is essential for breaking down sugar and carbs, so when you consume maltodextrin, it’s easy to become deficient. Poor diet could be a reason why vitamins aren’t working for you. If you’re diabetic, prediabetic, or have insulin resistance, vitamin absorption will be greatly inhibited. Fix this by going on a low-carb diet. Poor-quality supplements often contain calcium carbonate, which is limestone! Multivitamins with calcium and magnesium are poorly absorbed because these two minerals compete for absorption. Vitamin effectiveness is greatly influenced by dosage. The RDA for vitamin D3 is only 600 IU, but you need around 10,000 IU daily. If you have a chronic illness, you need therapeutic doses of vitamins, not small amounts. Always pay attention to the milligram dosage when choosing a supplement! Taking too little of a supplement significantly reduces vitamin absorption and effectiveness.

Never take iron supplements! Iron is the most toxic mineral that you can consume. In this video, we’re going to talk about some of the dangerous side effects of iron supplements. Find out why iron deficiency anemia may not be related to iron deficiency at all. 0:00 Introduction: Why you shouldn’t take iron supplements 0:10 The dangers of iron supplements 0:34 Side effects of too much iron 1:13 Iron toxicity 1:23 What causes too much iron? 1:37 Side effects of iron supplements 3:53 Hidden iron 4:22 Iron and copper 5:40 Copper deficiency 6:36 Iron deficiency anemia explained DATA: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/22704130/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/14580305/ https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/15247045/ Too much iron over time can cause iron accumulation in your organs and tissues. Some people have a genetic problem that makes it difficult to eliminate iron if it accumulates too much. Potential side effects of too much iron include the following: 1. Cancer 2. Liver disease 3. Heart disease 4. Low testosterone 5. Low libido 6. Diabetes 7. Chronic fatigue syndrome 8. Infertility 9. Neurodegeneration 10. Inflammatory diseases Iron deficiency is one of the most common mineral deficiencies, but iron can also be dangerous if you’re getting too much. Iron toxicity is one of the most underdiagnosed and overlooked conditions. When you take iron supplements, you don't absorb very much. The excess iron accumulates in the digestive tract, causing constipation, nausea, diarrhea, bloating, and irritation of the colon. The type of iron in iron supplements feeds pathogens. Red meat is a better source of iron. Heme iron from red meat and fish is absorbed much more easily. It goes straight into the bloodstream. Red meat also has other nutrients like B vitamins, zinc, and selenium. High-quality protein also helps to balance iron. Many processed foods contain added iron in the forms of ferrous fumarate, ferrous sulfate, and ferrous gluconate. The most common sources of iron are supplements, fortification, and cooking with cast iron cookware. Liver damage will also cause you to accumulate iron. A lack of copper is a common cause of dysfunctional iron because copper helps control iron in the body. Many enzymes dependent on copper relate directly to the control of iron. The first enzyme involved with copper converts iron into a less accumulative and less toxic form. Copper also allows you to transport iron through the body. Copper is involved in a powerful antioxidant that reduces oxidation caused by iron! Glyphosate, antibiotics, high fructose corn syrup, and wheat products can cause copper deficiency. Iron deficiency anemia may really be iron dysfunctional anemia, which is often related to a copper deficiency. Oysters, shellfish, and organ meats are the best food sources of copper.
