Vitamin D, for pale-skinned people living +/- 2 degrees from the US/Canada border
how much Vitamin D should I take?

Depends on 25-hydroxyvitamin D serum level
Enough to get serum level to 40-60 ng/ml (100-150 nmol/L)
Increase of approximately 7-10 ng/ml with each 1000 IU


400 IU = 28 ng/ml
3400 IU = 58 ng/ml


Cancer Patients take Vitamin D
get to 100-150 nmol/L
test for ionized calcium

test for Vitamin D
establish a baseline
Test until in protective range
then test in March each year (lowest level), then August/September

Chlorella
5-7 grams per day is quite common and at this level you will notice significant changes in digestion, energy and overall health.

If you have not been eating many fresh raw vegetables in your diet, it is probably a good idea to start out with one 1/16 of a teaspoon with each meal and increase by 1/16 of a teaspoon every 2-3 days.

It is estimated that 25 to 50 percent of any healthcare budget could be saved with adequate vitamin D serum levels.


As long as you are not showing an allergic reaction (such as hives) or throwing up, you can safely continue the chlorella. In a couple of months, the reaction should decrease. And as it decreases, you can increase the dose.

Spirulina: Amounts in tablets vs. powder:
- 6 tablets of Spirulina is the equivalent of 1 teaspoon of powder (3 g). When dealing with tablets, this amount (6 tabs) is usually considered 1 "serving".
(Note: These equivalence formulas do NOT take into account any reduction of actual Spirulina in tablets caused by the use of binders/fillers, because that effect varies greatly from manufacturer to manufacturer.)

- One "serving" of Spirulina powder = 2 teaspoons (6 g). So -- one would have to take TWO "servings" of tablets to equal ONE "serving" of powder.

- There are 3 teaspoons in a tablespoon. Therefore, it would take 18 tablets to get the equivalent of 1 tablespoon of Spirulina.

- The equivalent to 2-3 tablespoons of powdered Spirulina -- the amount recommended to comprise a "meal" of sorts (see second paragraph above) -- is 36 to 54 tablets. This is, obviously, a ridiculous number of tablets to take.
