May- had finally been prescribed medication for asthma, after a about 10 years of mild symptoms that would normally get worse and more frequent during the winter. However, my new GP put me on vit. D for “the winter blues” (Seasonal Affective Disorder/SAD), in February 2008. Although she only recommended 1,000IU dose/day, a friend told me about “this guy on the radio” who takes 6,000IUs and “it’s great for mental clarity.” I decided to take a chance and for about a week I took 6,000IUs then dropped it to 3,000IUs. Well, 2 weeks later I noticed that my asthma hadn’t bothered me at all and hasn’t since! Even when exposed to main triggers, like dust and pollen, I still don’t have a flare-up/attack. MAy-Part2- I have posted re: my success with vit. D, that has cured my asthma, but I felt that it was equally important to also talk about my other health issues. After learning more about vit. D through Drs. Holick and Cannell, I began taking 5,000IUs/day. My other health issue were: SAD (seasonal affective disorder), cardiac arrhythmia, insulin spikes, headaches, attention deficit, dizziness, constant runny nose, hypertension, upper and lower GI issues (acid reflux, indigestion), hip and lower-back pain (the aching, throbbing kind seeing in osteomalacia and fibromyalgia patients), muscle & joint pain, and general fatigue and weakness. (The list goes on, but I’ll stop there.) Since being on vit D, I have experience a full recovery from all symptoms listed above.
