Summary
Around 20% to 50% of all women will have some sort of fibroid or endometriosis before the age of 50. A fibroid is a growth on the uterus that is not cancerous.
Research has shown that vitamin D may help shrink the size of fibroids.
If you’re vitamin D deficient, your risk of developing uterine fibroids is much higher. Vitamin D naturally inhibits the enzyme aromatase, which converts androgens to estrogen. Vitamin D can also affect the fibroid itself. If you have enough vitamin D, certain tumor and cancer cells will commit suicide.
Dr. Bruce Hollis has done extensive research on the benefits of vitamin D but says a lot of research on vitamin D has been rejected by top medical journals!
Around 50,000 IUs of vitamin D daily may help shrink fibroids in the uterus. You’ll also need to take the following vitamin D cofactors:
•500 mcg vitamin K2
•800 mg magnesium
•50 mg zinc
•Vitamin B6 and boron (recommended dose on the bottle)
More tips to help shrink fibroids naturally:
• Get on the ketogenic diet
• Increase your consumption of cruciferous vegetables
• Limit dairy consumption

| 0:00.0 | I want to share the best vitamin to help shrink a fibroid. So what is a fibroid? |
| 0:05.6 | Fibroid is a growth, but it's not cancerous. Fibroids are the number one reason why women get |
| 0:11.2 | hysterectomy's. Fibroids are very, very common. |
| 0:14.4 | I saw one reference that 20 to 50% of all women |
| 0:18.9 | before the age of 50 have some type of growth or fibroid or endometriosis. |
| 0:25.0 | So first let's start with the uterus. |
| 0:27.0 | What is the uterus? |
| 0:28.0 | Well, it's part muscle and part gland. |
| 0:32.0 | You can look at the uterus like the soil where the seed or an egg |
| 0:36.3 | implants and starts growing and so it's really nutrient-dense, it's rich, it feeds the egg once it's fertilized, and the uterus has incredible |
| 0:48.2 | regenerative properties. |
| 0:50.2 | I mean, researchers are now looking at, how can they use that in different places in the body to help regenerate the tissues |
| 0:56.4 | The other thing that's fascinating about the uterus is that it has the ability to expand by |
| 1:02.0 | 500 x and of course I show expand by 500X. |
| 1:04.4 | And of course I shared that information with my wife Karen and her reply was, |
| 1:08.6 | you think I don't know that after three kids? |
| 1:12.0 | So of course I quickly dropped that conversation. Here is the |
| 1:14.5 | information I stumbled on relating to fibroids. There's been some studies |
| 1:18.1 | that show that vitamin D can help reduce the size of a fibroid. Now why would Vitamin D actually help you |
| 1:26.7 | shrink a fibroid? Vitamin D regulates the genes that control growth. |
| 1:33.0 | And in one of the papers I found, the Vitamin D receptor in a fibroid |
| 1:39.0 | are very different versus normal uterus tissue. That means that the fibrous tissue is not |
