12 Questions and SVA Answers about Vit D 1) Why is Vit D is increasingly in the news? · Recent findings confirm that 30-­‐50% of Americans suffer from Vit D deficiency. · Vit D deficiency is now associated with 17 types of cancer, heart disease, high blood pressure, diabetes, autoimmune disease, chronic pain, osteoporosis, asthma, and more recently with autism. 2) According to the SVA perspective, why is there an epidemic? · SVA confirms that our immediate primary source of Vit D is sunlight. Sun exposure is an easy, reliable way for most people to get vitamin D. Exposure of the hands, face, arms, and legs to sunlight two to three times a will cause the skin to produce enough vitamin D (the necessary exposure time varies with age, skin type, season, time of day, etc). But getting Vit D through sunlight has become problematic because UVB is absorbed through the skin, and the liver and kidneys play a major role in transforming UVB to Vit D. · SVA highlights the fact that in this day and age, due to toxins in the food, stress, toxins in personal care, make-­‐up, or the chemicals in the water we drink or shower in, are putting an extra load on the liver because the liver is the organ that has to deal with all kinds of toxins that enter the body either orally or transdermally. So when the intelligence of the liver is compromised due to artificial chemicals artificial colors, flavors, scents, then it is not able to fulfill it functions of transforming UVB into Vit D optimally. The same thing happens to the kidneys. That’s why even though people may eat Vit D rich foods (milk, cheese, yogurt, etc) and get enough sunlight on a daily basis, their Vit D levels remain low. · SVA approaches the epidemic from a holistic point of view, not just recommending transdermal creams that bypass the liver in order to get absorbed; SVA also stresses the importance of diet and recommends special regimens for improving the health of the organs. 3) Is the Transdermal approach unique to SVA or are other researchers and scientists also talking about? ©Adishakti LLC.

The efficacy of the Transdermal approach is still not as well documented and appreciated as it has been in the ayurvedic and, more specifically, in the SVA tradition. However, scientists are catching on. In Canada, there has been some pioneering work in this aspect, view this link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OsRvoZNDLSc&feature=youtube_g data_player 4) What specifically is Vit D’s function in the body? · Vit D has many important functions, most prominent of which is the absorption of calcium. Scientists confirm that calcium deficiency in the physiology is correlated to low levels of Vit D. Vitamin D is required for the regulation of the minerals calcium and phosphorus found in the body. Our bodies need vitamin D in order to absorb calcium from the intestines. · Ultraviolet light (from sunlight) helps our skin cells convert vitamin D from an inactive into an active state. If we do not have enough vitamin D, calcium that we get from the food we eat is not absorbed properly, causing hypocalcemia (lower-­‐than-­‐normal blood calcium) to develop. Hypocalcemia results in deformities of bones and teeth, as well as neuromuscular problems. 5) How is Calcium related to Vit D and what diseases can result from lack of calcium? · When calcium is low in the body and de-­‐mineralization or inadequate mineralization of the bone is in effect, Osteomalacia occurs. Osteomalacia is the softening of the bones caused by defective bone mineralization secondary to inadequate amounts of available phosphorus and calcium, or because of overactive resorption of calcium from the bone as a result of hyperparathyroidism. Osteomalacia in children is known as rickets, and because of this, use of the term osteomalacia is often restricted to the milder, adult form of the disease. It may show signs as diffuse body pains, muscle weakness, and fragility of the bones. The most common cause of the disease is a deficiency in vitamin D, which is normally obtained from the diet and/or from sunlight exposure. · Many of the effects of the Osteomalacia disease overlap with the ©Adishakti LLC.

more common osteoporosis, but the two diseases are significantly different. There are two main causes of osteomalacia: (1) insufficient calcium absorption from the intestine because of lack of dietary calcium or a deficiency of or resistance to the action of vitamin D; and (2) Phosphate deficiency caused by increased renal losses. 6) Why did Vaidya create a Transdermal Vit D product? Vaidya and his father, Vaidya Kameshwar Mishra, used to successfully treat rickets in young children and infants in India 35 years ago. They used the transdermal method as it was the safest and most efficient. Rickets is a childhood bone disorder in which bones soften and become prone to fractures and deformity. The main cause of rickets is a lack of vitamin D. Not having enough calcium in one's diet may also be a cause of rickets. Some childhood kidney and liver diseases can cause rickets, as may a digestive disorder complication that affects calcium and phosphorous absorption. To understand better why Vaidya chooses the Transdermal route, you may watch his DVD on Vit D. Vaidya organized his research findings and ayurvedic material into a course to teach the SVA holistic method of addressing Vit D deficiency: a special protocol of herbs that supports the liver and helps enhance absorption in addition to a special diet that supports the liver and its functioning (this course material is available on DVD on www.chandika.com). 7) Are the SVA Transdermal Vit D results clinically confirmed? · Hundreds who have tried it over the past year have let us know how it has helped increase and balance Vit D levels in their bodies. · A resident of Southern California, Darci S. was clinically diagnosed with sever Vit D deficiency and kept records of all her tests and progress, through regular blood tests before and after using Vaidya’s SVA Transdermal Vit D cream. She just recently tested completely normal levels of Vit D in her blood report. Darci S. is 65 plus years old. She came to see Vaidya for the first time a little more than a year ago complaining of multiple digestive issues, and acute Vit D deficiency. ©Adishakti LLC.

Doctors had prescribed her high doses of Vit D pills but she had decided not to take them because she was aware of the possible side-­‐effects.[i] She was confident about following the SVA diet and full protocol including the Vit D transdermal cream. Below are her initial and final results as requested by her medical doctor, for Vit D and Hydroxy collected the first time on September 8, 2011 with final results collected January 3, 2012. September 8, 2011: Component Your Result Standard Range Units Vit D 25-­‐Hydroxy 25 30-­‐100ng/ml Vit D, 25-­‐Hydroxy, D3 25 NOT ESTABLISHED Vit D, 25-­‐Hydroxy, D2 <4 NOT ESTABLISHED January 3, 2012: Component Your Result Standard Range Units Vit D, 25-­‐Hydroxy 52 30-­‐100ng/ml Vit D, 25-­‐hydroxy, D3 52 NOT ESTABLISHED Vit D, 25-­‐Hydroxy, D2 <4 NOT ESTABLISHED You can notice how Darci’s Vit D levels went from 25 to 52 within less than 6 months. She accomplished this with only the Vit D Transdermal Cream and following the SVA diet. Vaidya has now created an even better product, the Vit D Roll-­‐On that is easier to use. 8) What is the difference between the Vit D Transdermals Creams and Roll-­Ons? · Unlike the transdermal creams, the roll-­‐on contains both lipid and water soluble micro-­‐molecules. What does this mean? The classic Transdermal Marma System creams were lipid soluble, in that the herbal and aromatic molecules contained in the jar were best delivered and transmitted primarily through the fat tissue. · After the creams, Vaidya created the water based formulations that contain no lipids at all so that the herbs would get absorbed into and be ©Adishakti LLC.

carried by the blood tissue and delivered to their destination even faster. The water-­‐based Roll-­‐Ons, such as the Super-­‐Sport Roll-­‐on, can be carried to work and applied freely without fearing the Shea butter grease stains on the desk or office clothes. · Finally, for optimal benefit, Vaidya created a product that was simultaneously lipid and water soluble, so as to have both immediate as well as sustained deeper and long term delivery, and not leave a greasy film after being applied! This is the new generations of Transdermal Roll-­‐On products: the lipid and water-­‐soluble Roll-­‐Ons! 9) How much Vit D is in the SVA Vit D Roll-­On? · The SVA Vit D Roll-­‐on has lipid soluble Vit D3 along with the ayurvedic water soluble herbal extracts blended in. In one gram of this Roll-­‐On you will get 3400 IU (international units) of Vit D. · This Roll-­‐on has a non-­‐sticky aromatic base, so you really don’t need to apply too much. Apply it 1-­‐2 times a day on the wrists or armpits in 2 strokes. This is all you will need for approximately one gram to be released into your skin and get absorbed. 10) Are the Roll-­Ons greasy and sticky like the Transdermal Creams? · They are totally non-­‐sticky and non-­‐greasy, highly aromatic, they get absorbed in even faster time, and serve the purpose of both long and short-­‐term herbal delivery into our system. 11) Where do you apply the Vit D Roll-­On? The Roll-­‐On can be applied on the wrists, the lower back, and ideally, under your armpits where there are some hormonal glands that help with fat metabolism. 12) What is the Vit D Roll-­On and Deodorant? How does that work? It is a Vit D Roll-­‐On that also serves the purpose of an ayurvedic deodorant with a safe and effective base. With the Vit D deodorant Roll-­‐ on, you deodorize and supply Vit D to your physiology in one stroke. And it’s a Roll-­‐on so it’s hygienically sealed, and only a small amount is released when the jar is rolled on. Easy to carry and apply. ©Adishakti LLC.

Testimonials: Darci S. : Doctor/Vaidya Mishra: This statement is to attest that I am very happy with the results of Ayurvedic Vit D cream prescribed by you and wish to state the following: I visited my regular doctor and she requested my lab tests for Vitamin D, which were as follows: Result: 25, Standard range: 30-­‐100. My regular medical doctor had prescribed Ergocalciferol, Vit D2, (Drisdol) 50,000 unit oral cap. I did purchase it and after reading about the side effects on the internet, I was surprised to know about the adverse effects on the body so, I refused to take it. I asked Dr Vaidya, for his opinion and he confirmed that the side-­‐effects indicated are not good but that it is up to each person to decide whether or not to take it. Dr. Vaidya Mishra offered me his Ayurvedic Vitamin-­‐D cream. I accepted it and followed his instruction for use. After three months of its use, I went for a new lab test for Vitamin-­‐D and it was found to be normal. I wish to thank Dr Vaidya for his recommendation. Respectfully, Darci S. Charlene D: Vaidya your new Roll-­‐on Deodorant is simply amazing! It smells even more divine than the first kinds called Sugand, and it is smoother, with no residue, plus it has Vit D. It is the best. I am simply hooked! Robert Z: Vaidya, thank you for this new generation of Roll-­‐On ©Adishakti LLC. The information found herein is for educational purposes only.

deodorants, I was hesitant to use the previous ones because of the white film it left on my shirts. This one is totally light, very aromatic, and easier to use. Thank you. -­‐-­‐
