| 0:00.0 | Welcome to the Dr. Berg's Healthy Keto and Interminute Fasting Podcast, where Dr. |
| 0:07.7 | Berg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing healthy weight. |
| 0:11.9 | I want to talk about another very important, huge, positive factor in creating a vitamin |
| 0:29.3 | D deficiency. There are over 1 billion people on this planet that just don't have enough |
| 0:36.3 | vitamin D. And there's many reasons for this, whether you don't have enough sun, you |
| 0:40.0 | don't go outside as much, you're sitting in front of a screen all the time, and the problem |
| 0:43.6 | with getting your vitamin D just from foods, it's almost impossible because the food just |
| 0:47.2 | doesn't have enough vitamin D. And then you have other conditions like insulin resistance, |
| 0:52.4 | which blocks the absorption of vitamin D, consuming a lot of sugar and refined carbs can actually |
| 0:56.8 | deplete vitamin D, but there's something else going on that is very important and I want |
| 1:01.2 | you to know about it. Vitamin D can only work if it connects to a receptor, okay? So there's |
| 1:07.6 | something called the vitamin D receptor, VDR. And most people think about vitamin D regulating |
| 1:16.1 | calcium, which it does, and supporting bone health, which it does, but this is a very small part |
| 1:23.6 | of what vitamin D really does, because in the nucleus of your cell, you have a vitamin D receptor |
| 1:31.9 | that is responsible for 229 genes. So this receptor has the ability to create a lot of different |
| 1:40.4 | effects. So a really big function of vitamin D is immune modulation, basically meaning that it can |
| 1:47.3 | control your immune system to a great extent. Now, if I were a pathogen, and I wanted to survive, |
| 1:55.1 | what I would do as a strategy is I would interfere with this little receptor right here, |
| 2:01.7 | because if I could, what would happen is the defenses of the immune system would go down, |
| 2:09.1 | and then I can actually overtake it and actually survive. And that just happens to be one of the |
| 2:14.1 | primary strategies that pathogens, those are microbes that cause pathology or disease. |
| 2:20.8 | Now, this strategy is called successive infection, meaning it slows down the immune system, okay? |
