Yeah, and if Flog keeps trying to justify this scam and swearing that clot shots are safe it’s going to break a 1000.Is this longer than the Dri Archer thread yet?

The same molecule in your morning vitamin D supplement is the active ingredient in rat poison.
Not a similar compound. Not a chemical cousin. The exact same molecule: cholecalciferol. At 0.075% concentration, it kills rats. In your supplement bottle, it's supposed to make you healthier.
This should be a simple story of dosage – but the more I investigated, the stranger it became. The vitamin D in supplements isn't extracted from fish or produced by sunlight. It's manufactured from sheep's wool using benzene and chloroform in Chinese chemical factories. The same factories that produce industrial solvents.
This essay is my attempt to reconcile what shouldn't be reconcilable. To understand how we arrived at a place where medicine and poison share the same molecule, the same manufacturer, the same mechanism of action – but somehow produce opposite results.
Here's a puzzle that keeps me awake at night: Multiple studies claim vitamin D supplementation produces measurable health benefits. A 2025 trial in France reported that high-dose vitamin D reduced multiple sclerosis progression by 34%. A meta-analysis found 15% lower cancer mortality. ICU patients allegedly had better survival rates. These studies exist, complete with control groups and statistical analyses, circulating through the medical establishment's usual channels.
Same substance, different context: Rampage rat poison. Active ingredient: 0.075% cholecalciferol. That's vitamin D3. Not mixed with vitamin D3, not containing vitamin D3 as one of many ingredients. The only active ingredient that kills rats is the exact same molecule we're told to supplement for our health. The remaining 99.925%? Seeds and grain – rat food. The vitamin D is what makes it lethal.
Something doesn't add up here.
Now, I don't trust the medical publishing complex. After watching them gatekeep dissenting voices, rubber-stamp fraudulent studies during the pandemic, and memory-hole inconvenient data, I know they're captured by industrial medicine. But here's what makes this paradox interesting: even if these vitamin D studies are manipulated, even if the benefits are manufactured, even if the whole thing is pharmaceutical propaganda – we still have the other side of the equation. The rat poison. The safety data sheets. The "fatal if swallowed" warnings from the actual manufacturers.
Either we're witnessing one of the most successful examples of "the dose makes the poison" in human history, or we're missing something fundamental about what's actually happening when people swallow these supplements. Because when Merck's own safety documents classify their pharmaceutical-grade vitamin D3 as "Category 1 and 2 hazardous," I pay attention. Not because I trust Merck – but because liability lawyers make them document actual hazards.
This isn't a simple story of Big Pharma deception or natural health enlightenment. It's messier than that. More confusing. And I'm trying to figure out how both realities can exist simultaneously.
The safety data sheets are damning. Not from some blogger's interpretation, but from Merck and Spectrum's own legal documentation for pharmaceutical-grade vitamin D3. "Fatal if swallowed." "Category 1 and 2 hazardous substance." "Not for use as food or drug." These aren't typos. These are legally required hazard classifications that companies must provide to protect themselves from liability. The same cholecalciferol molecule sold in your local pharmacy carries skull-and-crossbones pictograms in its industrial documentation.
Then there's the mechanism of death – identical in rats and humans. Cholecalciferol kills through hypercalcemia: calcium floods the bloodstream, calcifies soft tissues, damages kidneys, causes heart failure. When rats eat those poison pellets, this is how they die. When humans overdose on vitamin D, this is exactly what happens to them. Same molecule, same biological pathway, same organ damage. The only difference is the dose and the timeline.
The question isn't whether vitamin D3 can be toxic. It clearly can. The question is whether taking it at supplement doses is slowly building toward that same toxicity, just stretched over decades instead of days.
Our ancestors lived into their 80s, 90s without all the **** you see pushed on TV and doctors offices. Granted they died from infections, so I'm not taking anything away from antibiotics but so long as you eat relatively healthy, you're probably doing more harm than good by ingesting that formulated crap. Helps the drug pushers bottom line though no doubt. You want to take them, knock yourself out. I'll pass.This doesn't quite fit here, but in ways it does. @Confluence should love this.

I love/hate you SO much, TS.
Of course, I look at my bottle of Beyond Tangy Tangerine 2.5 I've been taking for a decade, and what do I see for the Vitamin D?
Yep.
Thank you/F you for rabbit hole I must now traverse.

Except craft beer.IDK Tim, while D3 is fat soluble, I'd question its harm if taken in the 400-800 IU daily along with a calcium supplement.
It will benefit those with osteopenia or osteoporosis to maintain bone density preventing a hip fracture before falling to the floor.
Just my 2 cents, but I wouldn't throw it away. Consuming literally anything in excess will have negative consequences.
I think I’ve gotta call bullshit. Rat poison kills rats by thinning their blood causing them to bleed out internally, not by calcium flooding their system.This doesn't quite fit here, but in ways it does. @Confluence should love this.
