no sun doesn t work on us because most of us has vit d receptor resistance due to hbv, genetics or inflammation, we dont know yet why but we know we have it

you ll see resistance from intact pth test as you take vit d suppleemnts, if intact pth does not go down there is resistance

high pth is also a problem because it promotes osteoporosis and immune suppression over decades of our life

no sick persons have no vitamin d because it is blocked by pathogens and probably inflammation, impossible to get it from sun unless healthy and exposing a lot

there is a very high percentage of deficient vit d in arabic countries for example, how do you explain vit d deficiency in the desert.....

order good quality healthy origins, now foods, biotech, life extension from iherb or other online stores.the min dose for us is around 10.000iu, the less severe the disease the less vit d dose needed

the most important thing is vitamin d, it already proved to prevent cirrhosis in animals given toxic substances to make cirrhosis, only those given vit d in good amounts had no severe liver damage and no cirrhosis

it is also proven to cut hcc about 50% together with 4cups of coffee per day

other proven on several studies on liver, curcumin, resveratrol and glutathione

black seed with Honey is not deeply studied on hbv liver damage we have antinflammatory effect from general studies and also boosting immunity can be more liver damage if we dont get a clearance of hbsag
