A viewer asks: “Seasilver was a supplement containing the herb pau d’arco, cranberry, and aloe. It got a lot of fanfare back in the late 90s and early 2000s. It was run out of business by the FTC and fined $120 million. They ceased doing business in 2006. Was this an ‘honest’ product being sold for its genuine health benefits? Or a scam? Or was it a good product whose benefits were exaggerated intentionally, with awareness, or unintentionally? Did they legitimately run afoul of the FDA and FTC, or were they targeted by overzealous enforcement, reading ‘too much’ into the laws and regulations governing supplements? Who are the bad guys here and who are the good guys, or were they both breaking and bending the rules of ‘fair play?'” What can Creator tell us?

He asks: “Did this constitute an interloper backlash of the manufacturers and sellers of this Seasilver product? Is this an object lesson we should be mindful of?” What can Creator tell us?

You clarified that Vitamin D levels of 40 to 60 ng/mL are important for healthy well-being, but not specifically how important this vitamin is for the recommended Antiviral Regimen to be effective. What is most important for us to know?

A viewer asks: “Is the efficacy of Creator’s antivirals affected by a person’s vitamin D levels? A recent research paper, ‘Vitamin D: A key player in COVID-19 immunity and lessons from the pandemic to combat immune-evasive variants,’ suggests all viral infections are more effectively treated when patients have vitamin D levels between 30-60ng/mL. In 2011, the Endocrine Society urged that: ‘to guarantee sufficiency, we recommend between 40 and 60 ng/mL for both children and adults.'” What can we tell him?

He asks: “Will Creator’s Antiviral Regimen efficacy improve significantly at vitamin D recommended levels of 40 to 60 ng/mL? Should vitamin K2 also be taken to boost absorption of vitamin D?” What can we tell him?

The Endocrine Society updated their guidelines for 2024 to advise against routine vitamin D screening and routine supplementation for certain populations, including non-pregnant adults aged 19 to 74. The Society cited lack of definitive clinical data to support the benefits, and this reverses previous guidelines that recommended supplementation among all age groups. Is this a good policy, and if vitamin D supplementation is truly justified, why is there a lack of conclusive scientific evidence?

A viewer asks: “Although Creator has recommended wide-spectrum multivitamin and mineral dietary supplements it is likely beneficial to know best dosages, for example for UK males over 60 as older adults commonly experience deficiencies in Vitamins C, D, B12, B9, and Calcium, Magnesium, Zinc. Typical dosages of key vitamins and minerals found in supplements for men over 60 are : Vit C 60-100 mg, D 0-25 μg (400-1000 IU), B12 1.5-24 μg, B9 200-400 μg, Calcium 200-300 mg, Magnesium 100-300 mg, Zinc 10-15 mg. Are these dosages likely to be close to optimal for this group or are higher levels needed? Some research suggests for example that Vitamin D3 doses should range from 5,000 IU to 50,000 IU in extremis.”

A viewer asks: “Creator has suggested there may be grounds for taking a wide spectrum multivitamin and mineral in addition to antivirals. One business source in the UK makes claims regarding vitamin D, B9, and B12. They say 57% of UK adults have below-optimal levels of vitamin D; 20% of those aged 60 and above have a vitamin B12 deficiency; 23% of women aged 19-64 have iron intakes below recommended levels. They also claim calcium and magnesium may be generally deficient. To what extent are these statistics accurate and would it be wise to take a wide-spectrum supplement?” What can we tell him?

A viewer asks: “Professor Angus Dalgleish, the chair of oncology at St George’s, University of London, has conducted research and clinical work on the role of vitamin D in cancer, particularly focusing on its potential benefits for cancer patients. He prescribes very high doses of vitamin D to some cancer patients to raise their blood levels significantly to boost vitamin D levels to around 100 nmol/L. How beneficial, as part of a comprehensive cancer treatment approach, are such doses likely to be and how variable in outcomes for different patient demographics?” What can Creator tell us?

A viewer asks: “Calcifediol is the precursor for calcitriol, the active form of vitamin D synthesized in the liver. Is Calcifediol likely to be a beneficial treatment (orally administered), that acts faster than antibiotics, for people acutely infected with a bacterial or viral infection to boost the efficiency of the immune system?” What can Creator tell us?

A viewer asks: “Some experts suggest that 2,000 IU per day may be necessary to achieve optimal blood levels of 25-hydroxyvitamin D for cancer prevention.

Recent studies support much, much higher than recommended daily dosages of Vitamin D as being therapeutic for a variety of conditions. Have the presumed normal healthy levels been deliberately underestimated to compromise human health?
