Bez tej witaminy nie będziesz zdrowy, a już zaczynają nią straszyć! Witamina A / Hubert Czerniak

The speaker deduces this protocol from the observation that studies showing vitamin A toxicity administered A alone, while studies giving A and D3 together showed no toxicity regardless of dose. Biological plausibility comes from the fact that animal sources (liver, eggs, butter) and plant sources all contain a mixture of A, D, E, and K in their fat fraction. He quotes Jerzy Zięba's book, which collected such studies. The speaker then states this as a dogmatic rule: 'fat-soluble vitamins are always together in nature, so you must take them together.' He extends the logic: the more vitamin D you take, the more vitamin K2 you need (K2 has no toxicity, so the only limit is cost). This protocol is positioned as the overarching safety strategy that nullifies the hypervitaminosis A scare. Without the complex, isolated high-dose A is risky; with the complex, safety is assured.

The speaker presents this as an established clinical observation, not a speculative suggestion. He states that using 100,000 IU of vitamin A daily resulted in normalization of heavy menstrual bleeding in over 90% of women. This is framed within the broader argument of vitamin A's importance for epithelial and mucosal integrity (the 'epithelial vitamin') and its hormone-like roles in adrenal and thyroid function. The high effectiveness suggests a physiological deficit that is rapidly corrected. The speaker does not cite a specific trial but presents it as fact, aligning with his earlier historical data on safety when combined with D3. The implication is that many cases of heavy bleeding may be a manifestation of subclinical hypovitaminosis A.

The speaker recounts that during the communist era, Polish healthcare routinely gave newborns a preparation containing 2000 IU vitamin D3 (for a 3.5 kg infant, 550 IU/kg) plus 50% more vitamin A, yielding 750–800 IU/kg of vitamin A. This was given to pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, and newborns alike. He stresses that 'nothing happened'—no toxicity emerged, even though these per-kilogram doses far exceed current cautious recommendations for infants. He uses this historical fact to directly challenge the current fear propagated by media and some doctors that vitamin A is dangerous during pregnancy and early life. The protocol is not offered as a modern prescription but as powerful evidence that combined A+D is safe when given together.

The speaker emphasizes that beta-carotene's conversion bottleneck is worsened when the meal contains no fat. The recent trend of eating dry salads or raw vegetables as a health practice can lead to zero vitamin A absorption from those plants. He recommends pouring oil over a tomato-and-onion salad, a simple traditional practice. However, he cautions that too much vegetable oil (implicitly polyunsaturated) is a 'blind alley' that blocks beta-carotene absorption. This advice ties into his broader narrative that modern dietary habits inadvertently induce fat-soluble vitamin deficiencies, even when people think they are eating healthily.

The speaker draws on a specific study referenced in Jerzy Zięba's book 'Ukryte terapie' (part 1, page 222). Most research investigating vitamin A toxicity administered vitamin A alone and observed dose-dependent harm. However, when vitamin A and D3 were given together, no toxicity appeared at any dose. This aligns with the biological reality that animal livers and plant sources contain A, D, E, and K as a group. The speaker then applies this logic to current public fear: Polish media and some doctors now warn pregnant women not to take vitamin A, much like the earlier unjustified scare over vitamin D3. He contrasts this with communist-era Poland, where newborns routinely received combined A and D3 (750–800 IU/kg A plus 550 IU/kg D3) without harm. The core lesson: isolating vitamin A is unnatural and dangerous; the ADEK complex is the only safe way to supplement fat-soluble vitamins. The speaker frames this as a dogma—once you accept that nature never delivers these vitamins singly, the toxicity concern disappears.

The speaker explains that unlike retinol from animal sources (fish liver oil, egg yolk, butter, milk), beta-carotene from plants must undergo enzymatic splitting and activation before it can function as retinol. The conversion ratio in a healthy system ranges from a best-case 6:1 to a more typical 12:1 or even 48:1. This means a large amount of carrots may yield very little usable vitamin A. Furthermore, numerous common conditions slash conversion efficiency: diabetes, hypothyroidism, insufficient fat intake (carotenoids are fat-soluble), as well as gut issues like giardia, recurrent diarrhea, or tropical enteropathy. The speaker also warns that the modern trend of eating fat-free salads prevents absorption, and that excessive consumption of certain vegetable oils can actually hinder beta-carotene uptake. The practical takeaway is that relying solely on plant sources for vitamin A is risky, especially for those with metabolic or digestive issues, and that animal-derived retinol is far more reliable.

The speaker recalls that during the communist era—often criticized for its healthcare—newborns were systematically given vitamin D3 and vitamin A together. A 3.5 kg infant received 2000 IU of D3 daily, which translates to about 550 IU/kg. Because the formulation contained 50% more vitamin A, the infant also received roughly 750–800 IU/kg of vitamin A daily. He emphasizes that no harm occurred ('nic się nie działo'). This practice was applied to pregnant women, breastfeeding mothers, and infants. The speaker ties this to his broader argument that the current medical aversion to vitamin A in pregnancy is unfounded media-driven fear, similar to the recent scare over vitamin D3. The historical data supports the principle that A and D3 are safe when administered together in these physiological ratios.
