Key Takeaways
1. Vitamin D3: The Misunderstood Sunshine Hormone
Vitamin D3 is not a vitamin! It is actually a seco-steroid hormone that affects almost all the cells in your body by altering the expression of your genes.
Evolutionary signal. Vitamin D3 is a hormone produced in our skin when exposed to sunlight, serving as an evolutionary signal of seasonal changes. It affects nearly every cell in the body, regulating over 1,000 genes.
Widespread deficiency. Modern lifestyles, with increased indoor time and sunscreen use, have led to widespread D3 deficiency. This deficiency is linked to numerous health issues, including obesity, depression, and various chronic diseases.
Beyond calcium. While traditionally associated with bone health, D3's roles extend far beyond calcium regulation. It influences immune function, cell growth, neuromuscular function, and inflammation reduction.
2. The Human Hibernation Syndrome: Evolution's Response to Low D3
If evolution detects little sunlight, it expects you are going into winter which is the time of a long famine and lack of food and resources.
Evolutionary adaptation. The Human Hibernation Syndrome (HHS) is a theory proposing that low D3 levels trigger evolutionary responses mimicking preparation for winter:
- Increased appetite and fat storage
- Reduced energy expenditure
- Increased susceptibility to infections
- Mood changes (e.g., depression)
Modern implications. In our modern environment, persistent low D3 levels can lead to chronic health issues as the body remains in a perpetual state of "winter preparation."
3. Incomplete Repair Syndrome: D3's Role in Healing and Maintenance
Vitamin D3 is the bone and joint remodeling hormone.
Resource conservation. The Incomplete Repair Syndrome suggests that low D3 levels signal resource scarcity, leading the body to perform only minimal repairs and maintenance.
D3's healing potential. Adequate D3 levels allow for complete healing and tissue remodeling. This explains why many chronic conditions improve with D3 supplementation:
- Joint and bone issues
- Skin conditions
- Chronic wounds
- Autoimmune disorders
4. The Dark History of Vitamin D Suppression
Big Pharma was not going to just give up easily.
Early promise. In the 1930s, high-dose Vitamin D showed remarkable healing potential, leading to widespread use and "empty hospitals."
Industry pushback. Pharmaceutical companies, fearing profit loss, began a campaign to:
- Exaggerate D3 toxicity risks
- Lobby for restrictions on vitamin sales
- Shift focus to patentable drugs
Ongoing struggle. Despite attempts to regulate vitamins as drugs, public pressure has maintained access to D3 supplements.
5. High-Dose D3 Therapy: A Potential Cure for Many Diseases
Low D3 levels are associated with almost every disease known to man not caused by aging or genetic mutations.
Wide-ranging benefits. High-dose D3 therapy has shown potential in treating or preventing:
- Autoimmune diseases (MS, lupus, rheumatoid arthritis)
- Mental health issues (depression, schizophrenia)
- Chronic pain conditions
- Cardiovascular diseases
- Various cancers
Mechanism of action. D3's ability to regulate gene expression and boost immune function may explain its broad therapeutic potential.
Caution advised. While promising, high-dose D3 therapy should be undertaken with medical supervision and regular blood tests.
6. The Vitamin K2 Connection: Essential for D3 Safety and Efficacy
To get the wondrous results of high dose D3 without the disastrous results of D3 toxicity- all you need to do it seems is supplement with Vitamin K2.
Synergistic relationship. Vitamin K2 works in tandem with D3 to:
- Direct calcium to bones and teeth
- Prevent calcium buildup in soft tissues and arteries
Safety enhancement. K2 supplementation mitigates the primary risk of high-dose D3 therapy: excessive calcium in the bloodstream.
Dosage recommendation. The author suggests 1000 mcg of K2 for every 10,000 IU of D3 taken.
7. Personal Transformation: Author's Journey with High-Dose D3
Within 5 months my yellow toenails were clearing up, my hip click was dissolving, my shoulders were being repaired even better than before.
Dramatic improvements. The author's self-experiment with high-dose D3 led to resolution of numerous chronic health issues:
- Joint pain and injuries
- Skin conditions
- Fatigue and depression
- Weight loss
Dosage progression. Starting at 20,000 IU daily, the author eventually increased to 50,000-100,000 IU daily, with periodic adjustments based on symptoms and blood tests.
8. Beyond Bones: D3's Impact on Obesity, Autism, and More
When doctors started warning us in the 1980's to avoid the sun and use sunscreen, explosive increases in rates of obesity, autism, asthma, and other diseases have occurred!
Obesity epidemic. The author hypothesizes that widespread D3 deficiency, rather than diet alone, is a primary driver of the obesity epidemic.
Neurodevelopmental disorders. Increasing rates of autism and ADHD may be linked to maternal D3 deficiency during pregnancy.
Immune function. Adequate D3 levels strengthen the immune system, potentially preventing or mitigating various infections and autoimmune conditions.
9. The Optimal D3 Dosage: Finding Your Sweet Spot
I would rather believe that this is all just a matter of some possible malfeasance by a small cabal of drug researchers back in the 1930's, and modern day incompetence along with Big Pharma's refusal to study high dose vitamin D3 because it cannot generate profits because it is not patentable.
Individualized approach. Optimal D3 dosage varies based on factors such as:
- Body weight
- Skin color
- Sun exposure
- Existing health conditions
Blood testing. Regular blood tests are crucial to monitor D3 levels and adjust dosage accordingly. The author suggests aiming for levels between 80-100 ng/mL.
Gradual increase. Start with a moderate dose (e.g., 5,000-10,000 IU daily) and gradually increase while monitoring symptoms and blood levels.
Consultation advised. While the author's experience is compelling, readers should consult healthcare professionals before starting high-dose D3 therapy.

Review Summary
The Miraculous Results Of Extremely High Doses Of The Sunshine Hormone Vitamin D3 receives mixed reviews. Many readers find the information valuable and life-changing, praising the author's research on high-dose vitamin D3 supplementation. They report improved health conditions and appreciate the personal anecdotes. However, critics note the book's disorganized structure, repetitive content, and lack of scientific rigor. Some readers find the writing style informal and scattered. Despite these criticisms, many recommend the book for its potential to help people with various health issues and its thought-provoking ideas about vitamin D's role in human health.
