Continued Supplementation key to sustained Optimal levels

Synergy Therapeutics Rx D10 provides the consumer with 10,000 IU (250 mcg) of Vitamin D3. Supplementation with D10 will sufficiently increase 25-OH Vitamin D to optimal levels within three months of therapy.

Continuation of D10 therapy after three months will cause 25-OH Vitamin D levels to fluctuate by plus-or-minus ten percent. Why does 25-OH levels not continue to rise after 3-months? The answer is simple but two part. First, after 3-months of therapy 25-OH Vitamin D reaches steady-state or a level that does not change significantly over time. The second part pertains to the fact that our bodies use approximately 4,000 IU daily for vitamin D dependent processes.

The chart above replicates the process of getting to and staying at steady state; however, if one were to stop D10 and lack daily sunlight, then their 25-OH level would replicate the red line in the chart.


 

Narinder Duggal, MD, FRCPC

Receiving his medical degree from University of British Columbia School of Medicine, Dr Duggal received his board certification in Internal Medicine and a Fellowship of the Royal College of Physicians of Canada. A specialist in Clinical Pharmacy, Dr. Duggal is currently an active Medical Director, Attending Physician and Clinical Associate Professor for the school of Pharmacy at the University of Washington in Seattle, Medical and Pharmacological Consultant and Board Member of the Cardiac and Pulmonary Rehabilitation Institute as well as the Medical Director at Liberty Bay Internal Medicine and Synergy Therapeutics RX.

Dr. Duggal has been recommending Synergy Therapeutics and Bionorica products for more than a decade, yet he knows that the U.S. market will provide a challenge for Phyto-pharmaceuticals. Said Dr. Duggal, "While Europeans and much of the world recognize that complementary and allopathic medicine must exist on an equal par to allow for a more comprehensive approach to a patient's health, the U.S. market clearly has been closed to this possibility. The fact that the last time the U.S. Food and Drug Administration approved an herbal medicine was some 45 years ago underlines his point.

In order to provide assurance to physicians and patients, the stringent standards of pharmaceutical agents should be applied to the phyto-pharmaceuticals. "The concept in Europe, where scientific methodology and the evidence-based principles of clinical studies are applied to herbal products, is not known in this country." This is why Synergy and Bionorica's standards so far outshine any product on the US market today. "Synergy Therapeutics and Bionorica have many of the most clinically tested and validated herbal and Neutroceutical products in the world today."

Vitamin D10

Vitamin D10 is by far the best natural product that I have taken for my Vitamin D levels. I tried other brands at lower doses, but realized that even taking 5 or 6 per day was not getting my levels to optimal. D10 took three months to get me from 51 to 126 ng/mL. My energy is back, by mood is good, and I made it through the dreary NW winter with no signs of illness. Thanks Synergy for such a good product.

I have suffered from S.A.D for years now, and this last fall started taking D10. Not only did I have the most productive winter in my work life, I also was able to be positive, up beat, and grow in my current relationship! I recently had my 25OH Vitamin D test done and was at 99. 

Keep up the good work. 

Matt Adams - Georgetown, Wa

I started taking Vitamin D10 about 6 months ago, after reading some info on anemia and causes, and the iron in my blood normalized so quickly that it shocked my doctor. I feel better than I have in years, and owe it all to Vitamin D10!

Vitamin D and Toxicity

Vitamin D Toxicity: Synergy Therapeutics D₁₀

Vitamin D toxicity, does it exist with Synergy Therapeutics Rx D₁₀? Fear of toxicity by supplementing with Synergy Therapeutics Rx D10 is unwarranted. Although it is true that vitamin D in excess poses the risk of toxicity, the medical community has yet to produce any evidence that 10,000 IU/day is toxic. It is important to remember that the normal human physiological response, when exposed to UVB rays, is to produce between 10,000-20,000 IU within thirty-minutes! So, what is considered excessive vitamin D intake? Read what another expert in the field had to say regarding toxicity.  

Can we overdose?

One of the debates surrounding vitamin D is whether too much can be toxic. The US’s Institute of Medicine’s recommendations – unchanged since 1997 – were influenced in part by a 1984 study concluding that 3,800 IU of vitamin D per day could cause hypercalcemia, or too much calcium in the blood. Symptoms include kidney stones, vomiting and muscle atrophy.

But the 1984 study was flawed: it failed to measure the amount of vitamin D administered; based on the findings of other studies, it now looks as though subjects were given 100 times more vitamin D than intended.Moreover, how could it be that 3,800 IU was toxic, when 10-20 minutes of midday sunbathing in the summer makes at least 10,000 IU of vitamin D in our bodies?

In 1999, Reinhold Vieth (pictured right) published a review of vitamin D research in response to the IOM conclusions. In it, he argued that there was no evidence that amounts lower than 20,000 IU a day could be toxic. “Throughout my preparation of this review, I was amazed at the lack of evidence supporting statements about the toxicity of moderate doses of vitamin D,” Vieth wrote.

Synergy Therapeutics Rx D₁₀ provides 10,000 I.U. of Vitamin D3 in a single pulse dose, replicating natural vitamin D3 production in the body making it a safe and effective way to ensure optimal vitamin D levels.
