Kickas.org Forums Ankylosing Spondylitis General Discussion #1 AS Web Support Group Vitamin D protocol to control auto immune disease

I finally found a viable treatment last year after no longer being able to take biologics due to developing antibodies to them.

I found a protocol by Dr. Coimbra, a brazilian who was trained in florida. just google his name and start studying his protocol .

It really works and is supported by two studies on vittilago and chron's I believe.

I have taken anywhere from 20,000 IU's a day to 90,000 depending on my labs. The only precaution is you need to go Dairy free so you have reduced calcium and drink at least 2.5 litres of water a day.

Dont believe what the medical community knows about vitamin D . People are severely underdosed and it seems almost everyones levels are too low.

This is not about getting your levels "normal" it's about saturationt TH17 so your immune system starts working.

I was very suspect of this at first but it really works. You need lab tests and a protocol doctor. I use Michael Cawley in Ireland with skype.

You can join the support group on facebook too.

good luck if you're interested. I'm not going to follow this with any discussion.

That's great! How is it working out for you? Hope you are feeling better

How interesting! Do you have a list of resources/links, by any chance? Would you be able to share details about the protocol? What sort of tests and monitoring did you do?

Thanks for sharing!

Look at finnari's later post. Seems like his success was short lived because he is posting about starting biologics in 2017/2018. We are all hoping for a magic bullet, a undiscovered cure. Keep looking and Keep hoping but vitamin D doesn't seem like it. My own rheumatologist Dr. James Dowd wrote a book on Vitamin D and never advocated high doses but does advocate levels higher than what's accepted as normal.
