As it might be clear by now to most people, the text does need some serious editing since it is all over the place .
But this is beside the point . You’ll still get the underlying point of Jeff’s theories .
And they are indeed interesting !
After I finished reading the book I thought it can’t do any harm to try “high doses” of D3 myself and see where this would take me . It’s still too early into my ‘therapy’ but here’s what happened so far ( after just 12 days ):
I started with 5000 IU/day D3 by Now Foods and maybe it’s just my perception but from day 1 I felt a slight improvement after days and even weeks suffering from mild depression .
A day later I remember being on the treadmill in the gym thinking “I could do another 5 minutes”, whereas before it was usually “another 5 minutes to go , damn.”.
I started taking 10.000 IU after 4 days and now 15.000 IU where I plan to stay at for a while.
Overall my mood has improved significantly and I don’t seem to have post workout pains like I used to .
Even though I’m going through a difficult time in my life, after taking D3 I seem to feel ‘depressed’ only on a mental level ( I hope this makes sense ). I no longer feel the kind of fatigue where You just don’t want to get out of bed and simply do nothing !
I will post any noteworthy updates in the future !
P.S.: Does anyone know if Jeff has a website where I could ask questions ?

Update :
OK , so it has been almost 3 months since my initial review . Here’s what happened :
I ran out of Vitamin D3 about 10 days ago and I’m waiting for my new order to arrive .
Since I stopped the usage ( approx 15.000 – 20.000 IU/day ) I seem to feel a little more tired from work than usual .
Sometimes I wake up and my whole body seems to hurt . I can’t remember ever feeling like this while on D3 !
But one of the more predominant side effects of being off it , is that my libido is way .. way down .
Women approach and flirt at work and usually all I can think about is getting some sleep .
Can’t wait to get ” back on”
