Vitamin D Expert: The Supplement World Is Giving The WRONG Advice!

The vitamin World is giving the wrong advice. For instance, if you do not know what you're doing with them, they're just as dangerous as any drug you could put in your mouth. The next thing is supplementing with vitamin D is not the same as being outdoors because we absorb it through our skin, but what we've been told is don't ever let the sun touch your skin. And another example is when we're deficient in this vitamin, our brain actually forgets how to sleep. And I know that because I'm a neurologist and I want to just tell the world about what my patients and I had discovered together about making sleep better. And billions around the world have a sleep problem, but no one's treating it. And the usual sleep treatment is behavioral. Like black-out curtains, go to bed at the same time. But that is not something that's helped the people Who wind up with me. They've tried all that already. And I've taken care of twenty eight year olds who just had a stroke. Twenty eight sorry? Twenty-eight year old. We associate stroke with being old and having diabetes and hypertension and heart disease.

No. So then I did a whole bunch of sleep studies because we found some exciting things by accident that turn out to have to do with vitamin deficiencies and deficiencies that have developed from being indoors too much. And we're starting to feel the effects of that like obesity. But there's there are no obese squirrels in my backyard. The only obese animals are cats and dogs that we keep inside. And then we found out most of the sleep disorders are really linked to the microbiome. And we can go into that, but one of the interesting things I learned was vitamin D is a hormone. There was a mistake made in calling it A vitamin. Well I'm very curious to learn about all of this. And also you've come up with this protocol called the Right Sleep Protocol. Can you walk me through it? Absolutely. Here's the first part of it. So Guys, I've got a favor to ask before this episode begins.
