  • This episode of Health Essentials explores the potential negative consequences of high-dose vitamin D supplementation, drawing attention to the experience of a Redditor who experienced various health issues after taking 10,000 IU of vitamin D3 daily for years. The video highlights the potential for vitamin D toxicity, particularly in the context of nutrient interactions, emphasizing the importance of considering the body's overall nutrient balance rather than focusing solely on individual deficiencies. Harder discusses how high-dose vitamin D can deplete magnesium and potassium, leading to fatigue, edema, and potential soft tissue calcification.
