So if you have just the slightest idea that cholesterol is the bad guy, this video is

for you.

Do you realize that you need cholesterol to make your vitamin D?

Now we actually have a pandemic going on right now, the majority of the world is deficient

in vitamin D. So it's very important to understand where vitamin D comes from.

And your diet is virtually impossible to get enough vitamin D. Our bodies were not designed

to get our vitamin D from the diet.

If it was designed, a lot of foods would have vitamin D in them.

There's only a few that have vitamin D. Fatty fish like salmon, sardines, egg yolk, there's

a little bit of vitamin D in milk products like cheese.

There's a very tiny bit of vitamin D as a pre-vitamin D in mushrooms.

But other than that, you don't see vitamin D in many foods.

As far as vitamin D goes, we were meant to be exposed to sun to give our vitamin D. The

sun hits the skin, so we have UV radiation.

It then goes to a series of combination of chemical reactions with cholesterol being a

necessary part of that pathway.

And eventually you get vitamin D. And if you're vitamin D deficient, there are some serious

problems with inflammation, high blood pressure, poor immune system, back pain, higher risk

for autoimmune disease and asthma and the list goes on and on and on.

Your body makes 3,000 milligrams of cholesterol every single day, whether you eat cholesterol

or not.

Your liver makes it and other cells make it because you need cholesterol.
