As the hot summer days are quickly approaching, it’s time for one of our favorite summer protocols.

When out in the sun, our skin naturally produces Vitamin D. This is a very good thing, especially for our immune systems!

However, too much of a good thing can also be bad. Vitamin D is fat-soluble, which makes it slower to flush out of your tissues where it can build up to toxic levels. This is essentially what causes a sunburn.

Taking the right calcium supplements along with the right fatty acids can help your body process this excess Vitamin D safely and effectively.

We love being out in the sun. We try to prepare for this exposure by taking this protocol at least a day in advance, usually up to 4 Calcium Lactate and up to 4 Cataplex F to help “pre-load” the tissues. Then while in the sun, we keep taking this protocol every few hours or as needed based on sun exposure.

Bonus – Even if you get a burn, this protocol will typically help you recover much faster, again by helping your body process that excess Vitamin D.

Extra Bonus – Cataplex F is also well known for it’s ability to help with heat intolerance. If you are overheating and worried about Heat Stroke, take a small handful of Cataplex F (6-12) and rest for a few minutes. (Pro Tip: chew them up a bit for faster absorption) With more fatty acids available, you’re cells and body systems are better able to take the heat! Several of our colleagues have shared stories about helping individuals experiencing heat stroke by giving them a few tablets of Cataplex F and witnessing their symptoms disappear within minutes!

Dr. David likes to share his story of being on vacation and having to help clear out the fridge before they left. He ended up eating a meal FULL of fats like eggs, butter, avocados, and more. A little while later, he went to his favorite spot in the steam room for a good sweat and was surprised at how little the heat was affecting him!
