Yeah.

And so I don't think that hurts anyone.

Yeah.

What about lots of questions I get on calcium, phosphorus, vitamin K. What are your thoughts on that?

400 milligrams of magnesium a day, 100 micrograms of vitamin K per day.

Vitamin D, you want to get at least 600 units per day.

You should not exceed 4,000 units per day if you don't have a deficiency.

For various reasons and, you know, data that I've read, I do take 2,000 units a day.

I'm not exceeding that upper limit of what's safe, but there are studies, correlative or not, that show, you know, vitamin D supplementation reduces risk of cancer.

or is associated with less risk of dementia and depression.

Also, at that level, at least 2,000 units per day is correlated with benefits for reducing joint pain.

So there are some side benefits of it.

So while you do need about 600 international units per day, I do take the 2,000.

So those are important aspects as well, the dietary aspects.

Oh, yeah, a lot of people do.

And then low in diets that are, like, less inflammatory.

So there's something called the Dietary Inflammatory Index, which, unfortunately, they're not like a— That's what I built the Galveston Diet based on was that because I went back for nutrition.

Yeah.

Oh, I've taken the quiz, yeah.

So it's the poor man's version of that.
