The HIGH-DOSE Vitamin D3 CURE for Multiple Sclerosis – Now SWEEPING THE PLANET
-Case Studies #13-
A Most Amazing Story of Dr. Coimbra and
the 1,000’s of his Patients around the world
that have Been Cured of MS with
High-Dose Vitamin D3
(Doses of 50,000, 100,000, 200,000 to as High as 1,000,000 IU of Vitamin D3 per day)
Have you heard the news? Big Pharma has just come out with a miracle drug for MS sufferers. The drug’s name is ocrelizumab, and costs just $65,000 per year, and was shown to slow the decline in patients with primary progressive multiple sclerosis-the rarest form which no other drug has been able to affect, by 24%. The drug works by stamping out a class of immune cell, known as B cells, thought to play a major role in the disease. It also cuts time between relapses for those with relapsing MS by about 50%!
Hmmm-no B cells? I wonder if there are any side effects? Oh yeah>
- upper respiratory tract infections,
- infusion reactions (itching, rash, hives, redness, bronchospasm, swollen and sore throat, mouth pain, shortness of breath, flushing, hypotension, fever, fatigue, headache, dizziness, nausea, and fast heart rate),
- skin infections,
- lower respiratory tract infections,
- depression,
- back pain, and
- pain in the extremities
- general swelling, Herpes outbreaks, and cancer.
The National Multiple Sclerosis Society applauded the $65,000 price tag. (I BET THEY DID!)
What if I told you there is a large and growing network of doctors around the world, associated with Dr. Coimbra, a pioneering Brazilian doctor who has been curing patients of MS and other autoimmune diseases with high-dose vitamin D3 therapy for the past 6 years,
A SUPERIOR TREATMENT FOR MS AND BASICALLY A CURE – for a cost for the Vitamin D3, of as little as $50 a year?
What if I told you an ex-heavyweight professional boxer who once lost to the world champion Wladimir Klitschko and who contracted progressive primary MS (the worst kind) around the year 2000 and who was once wheelchair-bound, barely able to even move, and declining rapidly, is now learning to walk again after taking daily doses of Vitamin D3 from 200,000 to as high as 1 million (recently) IU’s for the last 6 years?
This is all true, and I am pretty sure most of you reading this have never heard a word about it from your doctor, and definitely not from Big Pharma! (I am sure they love the idea of millions of people shelling out $65,000 per year for their new drug for the rest of their lives!)
After we get through our first case of the MS-stricken boxer Zoran Vujicic, and the 1,000’s of patients cured by Dr. Coimbra, I have testimonials from several other MS patients who swear to being cured via high dose vitamin D3 therapy. I will add these cases to this article later.
Before we get into the interesting parts, let’s just get an overview of what MS is all about:
MS affects an estimated 2.3 million people around the world, including about 400,000 people in the United States.
The four main types of MS are:
- clinically isolated syndrome (CIS)
- relapsing remitting MS (RRMS)
- secondary progressive MS (SPMS)
- primary progressive MS (PPMS)
Relapsing remitting MS is the most common form of the disease. People with RRMS have acute attacks followed by periods of remission in which the disease doesn’t progress. When this form becomes progressive, it’s called secondary progressive MS.
The worst and rarest kind of MS is called primary progressive (PPMS) which makes up about 10-15% of MS sufferers. Once it starts, it does not get better, there are no remission periods. It is just straight downhill, or coasting, until complete paralysis and death.
What differentiates PPMS from the relapsing forms is that while active progression may stop temporarily, the symptoms do not resolve. In relapsing forms, the symptoms may actually improve or return near to where they were before the most recent relapse. Another difference is that there’s not as much inflammation in PPMS compared to relapsing forms. Because of this, many of the drugs that work for relapsing forms do not work for PPMS or SPMS. Also, with PPMS, there are fewer lesions in the brain and more in the spinal cord. The progression of symptoms can worsen over a few months or several years.
What is an MS lesion? It is kind of like a pimple or ulcer on the sheath of tissue that covers one’s nerves or brain cells. It is like an electrical wire loses some of its insulation and starts to short circuit.
MS is more common in Caucasians than in other ethnic groups. Although relapsing forms of MS (as almost all autoimmune diseases) are more common in women than in men, both sexes get PPMS at about the same rate. PPMS tends to occur about 10 years later in life than the relapsing forms of MS.
With 160 cases of MS per 100,000 inhabitants, Norway ranks seventh in MS disease prevalence worldwide, behind only Canada, Denmark, Sweden, Hungary, Cyprus and the United Kingdom, (according to the Multiple Sclerosis International Federation). (Notice the high latitudes where the sun is weak and Vitamin D3 levels are low for most of these countries-this will be important later).
Notice how MS is more prevalent where the sun is weakest (and thus Vitamin D3 levels are lower-Vitamin D3 is made when strong sun hits your skin.
Oddly, even though MS sounds like a terrible, life-threatening disease, most sufferers of MS can live quite a long time and have an average age of death of only 7 years or so younger than normal people!
However, the symptoms can be bad to horrible, including complete paralysis amongst those with PPMS. Milder symptoms include: dizziness, vision and cognitive problems, fatigue, bowel and bladder problems, sexual issues, motor problems, and pain.
Well now for the GOOD NEWS!>>
Dr. Coimbra and his 5,000+ patients – Dr. Cicero Galli Coimbra is a Brazilian Neurologist, Professor and Researcher who has become popular for treating Multiple Sclerosis and autoimmune disease with high doses of vitamin D3 combined with a combination of other supplements and diet recommendations. Dr. Coimbra does not claim to cure MS [some of his patients will tell you differently] but he has proven that his treatment does stop its progression.
Here is a great link to testimonials of many of Dr. Coimbra’s patients>>

You will find many testimonials similar to this one by Kory:
Re: Multiple Sclerosis Testimonials (Coimbra Protocol)
Kory’s Testimonial
This is Kory Carreño, from Peru. Many of us, patients of Dr. Coimbra, have followed Kory’s story with the Coimbra Protocol and her struggle to go to Brazil in 2012 and start the treatment with high doses of vitamin D. This is what Kory has recently shared with our FB groups:
Hello, my name is Kory Carreño, I am from Lima / Peru, and had my first MS symptoms in 1999. I went from one doctor to another, always ending up in psychiatrists, until I had half of my body paralyzed in 2004 and, after an MRI, the doctors said I possibly had MS. They did not prescribe any treatment, and after several weeks I ended up losing function of the other half of my body. I was a quadriplegic, I was admitted to the hospital and received 1000 mg per day of methylprednisone for 15 days – dose sufficient to lead to death. I was just devastated. At that time, I was living in Bolivia and they sent me back to Peru because in Bolivia they knew nothing about the disease.
In Peru, they treated me with AVONEX for three years. Besides the side effects, I had 3 to 4 had relapses per year, and it used to take me 2 to 3 months to recover, and hence came another relapse. I was very tired, but I kept going for my son. This medication only hurt me, my body created a resistance to the interferon, and its use has caused me leukopenia (reduction in the number of leukocytes in the blood) and my hemoglobin dropped to 6.7, that is, I became anemic. The doctors discontinued the treatment and I had more relapses, one after the other without interruption. I began to despair because I started to be dependent on a wheelchair, I needed a probe to feed me and a cervical collar to keep my neck up. Doctors disillusioned me, but I refused to accept that I had to stay that way.
With the help of friends, I traveled to the US in search of a clinical trial, but they said that I had to use Copaxone. To buy this medication we had to do many fundraising, etc. With Copaxone I had a relapse a year for two years, I got a little stronger and started searching the internet. But the drugs I used all those years caused me cervical cancer. I got my uterus removed and thank God the cancer was eliminated, but I had another big relapse.
In 2012 I met a patient with MS who told me about the Vitamin D Protocol (thank God, who is always behind everything bringing Angels to our lives, because He loves us more than anything in the world!) And through this person I met Yara Correa, a patient from Brazil, and she introduced me to this INCREDIBLE Protocol. I watched Dr. Cicero’s videos and realized that that was what I was looking for. I could not believe it was exactly what I had asked the Lord Jesus: that I could stop mistreating my body with chemicals and not experience side effects anymore, no longer inject cortisone, no longer have relapses and leave my son at home without knowing if or how I’d return. I was blessed to have friends and family who moved heaven and earth for me to travel to Sao Paulo, and Yara offered me all the support I needed in Brazil.
With 8 months of treatment, I was very happy and stopped the injections (Copaxone). No relapses and many improvements. Unfortunately, the doctors found two tumors in my ovaries, which due to negligence they had not removed in the previous surgery. When I was hospitalized, Dr. Cicero (through Yara) was always attentive. I continued taking my dose of 60,000 IU per day and my multivitamins. Everything went well, the 2 tumors were benign, and the most FABULOUS thing of all was that I had no relapses. After 9 months of treatment, I got married!
After 4 years of treatment, I’m now enjoying life with my family, and many of my disabilities have disappeared. I can go horse riding, I can walk alone, without support, lead a normal life without pain, and I do not wake up tired in the morning. Blessed vitamin D and Dr. Cicero.
I had a friend who died as a result of various experimental treatments for patients with MS, and they are so harmful that they can lead to death. That’s why now I want everyone to know about this protocol. I wish my friend had a little bit of the luck I had, but God knows all things. I tried everything that was “natural” before this Protocol: bees’ stings, raw diet, other diets, but I can tell you that Dr. Cicero Coimbra and the Vitamin D Protocol were placed by God to save lives and we have to announce it to the world.
Here is a before and after picture of another D3 success story – John Ottwell, (with PPMS) before, and at day 165 on the protocol.
Dr. Coimbra has treated himself or through his network of affiliated doctors more than 5,000 MS patients with a success rate he claims of 95%. There are possibly hundreds of testimonials all over the internet that are easy to find so I will not add any more of Coimbra’s patients. You can even see him/them in many YouTube videos like this one>>

One of the most interesting Dr. Coimbra related sites on the web has before and after pictures of his MS patients MRIs like this one.
Now I would like to tell you about one special case of the one MS patient who contacted me from Serbia a number of years ago, Zoran Vujicic, after reading my book on high-dose vitamin d3 therapy. Up until the year 1999, Zoran was a heavyweight professional boxer. In that year he fought for the heavyweight championship of the world against Wladimir Klitschko and was knocked out in a pretty stunning fashion-
Here is the YouTube link to the fight>>
Soon after he developed PPMS and eventually became wheelchair bound for many years. Sometime around 2013, Zoran read my book which was difficult for him because his first language is Serbian. However, after making it through the book he decided to give high-dose Vitamin D3 therapy a try. And what a try he did. He was quickly taking a dose as high as 200,000 IU per day. But he was doing it in an intelligent way, by carefully monitoring his blood calcium levels on a monthly basis to make sure they stayed in the normal range. Zoran also was taking high-dose Vitamin K2 which was promoted in my book because it makes taking Vitamin D3 safer by catalyzing the incorporation of blood calcium into one’s bones.
You see the only real danger of taking too high a dose of Vitamin D3 is that it could cause the release of too much calcium into your blood which could lead to kidney stones, improper calcification of soft tissues, nausea, and other bad things. But keep in mind this hypercalcemia effect of Vitamin D3 is much rarer than most doctors would lead you to believe. The good news is, that unlike many Big Pharma drugs, these potential adverse consequences of high-dose Vitamin D3 are easy to reverse by simply stopping intake of D3 to allow your D3 levels to come down.
Zoran’s treatment regimen differed from the Coimbra protocol in that he also took large doses of Vitamin K2 with his high-dose Vitamin D3.
Zoran maintained the 200,000 IU per day for a number of years and found that it completely halted the progression of his MS. However, after a few years, he was no longer satisfied with this result and embarked on his own experiment of higher and higher doses of D3. At the time of this writing, he claims to be taking 500,000 to 1 million IU’s of D3 per day with lots of K2. Amazingly his blood tests keep coming back with his calcium in the low range of the scale! If anyone is to try what seems like a very dangerous treatment dosage, you should definitely go up gradually, and get your blood calcium checked VERY OFTEN…maybe every 2 weeks for a while. And if you feel nauseous and start losing weight that would be a sign that hypercalcemia was being triggered and you would have to stop and adjust your dosage.
Zoran – Just starting the D3 regimen – wheelchair-bound
Zoran recently learning to walk again with the help of his friends.
Zoran’s case differs from those who follow Coimbra’s protocol in that he is taking high-dose Vitamin K2 and does not follow any rules about restricting calcium intake. Coimbra suggests that his patients should take only about 1,000 IU of D3 per kg of body weight per day, and he feels Vitamin K2 has no effect at such high levels of D3. He also instructs his patients to avoid calcium-rich foods and drink an extra liter or 2 per day of water to wash the calcium out of one’s blood.
In addition to the many testimonials you can read about Dr. Coimbra’s patients on the internet, you can also use the vitamin D3 1,000+ case studies search engine
and find even a few more testimonials from people treating themselves like these>>
Hi Jeff,
Hope you are having a good summer
Just to jog your memory, last year I wrote to you after reading your books. My 35-years old husband, J*** was newly diagnosed with MS. You told me about Dr. Coimbra’s protocol for MS at the time.
After the tip from you, J*** said goodbye to conventional medical immediately and started the high-dose vitamin D protocol with a doctor trained in it. He’s been on the protocol for 8 months now and we are very happy with the results. His blood reports show no inflammation and the last MRI scan showed no new or active lesions. He still has the old lesions that will probably take a few years to go away, but that can take its own sweet time. We do not mind because it takes time to heal and he is healing very nicely so far. Although he sometimes has some numbness and tingling, he has had no relapses. He is full of energy, you know well how the high doses of vitamin D give you good energy levels and better quality of day to day life. J*** manages a job where he works offshore in long shifts (12 hours or more) when he is onboard the subsea rig where he works. Simultaneously he is also in the middle of his engineering studies and of course, the household calls his attention too as we have 2 little girls. We are otherwise two physically active people who like skiing, sailing, hiking, camping in nature etc. He is able to do all of this like he did before. Crazy to think that he lives such an active life that normal people don’t have the energy for while having MS only by taking high doses of vitamin D and a few other vitamins. This is miraculous!
I only wanted to update you and keep you in the loop. Jaro will be going for an MRI in Oct-Nov period so we will see if there is any change in the liaison, I will let you know.
Keep doing the good work of spreading the news on vitamin D, I owe you and so many others for introducing us to the miraculous of “dangerously high-dose“ vitamin D.
Take care and enjoy the summer.
Best wishes
M*****
5.0 out of 5 stars must read for those suffering with MS
By J. Crawford on February 28, 2014
Read this in 2 days, I was fascinated. I’ve had MS way longer I know than 20 years (diagnosed 17 ago). I’ve started high-dose d3 therapy 2 wks ago. I’m not saying I’m CURED, but I can notice a difference in my balance and pain level already and I’m hopeful for further improvement. Read this with an open mind. I’m really happy with, and excited that I found this book!
Here is the follow-up email from Manisha re MS. She suggests if you start d3 immediately upon diagnosis you can nip it in the bud, and one should skip conventional treatment altogether!!
Jeff,
Good to know where you are located. I have neither been to Chicago nor to St. Louis, maybe someday. We live on the west coast of Norway in Bergen, it’s the 2nd largest city in Norway but compared to cities in the US, it can better be called a town or a village really. It rains a lot here, but we are also blessed with beautiful fjords and nature, so we do have something to be happy about. You are very welcome to stay with us any day if you come this way to visit Norway.
Healthcare in Norway is free and the neurologist keeps suggesting expensive, top of the line conventional medicine for Jaro’s MS, but we keep turning down the offers and instead do skype consultations with a doctor in Spain who is trained with Combra protocol. We do the lab work in the only private lab here in the country and order our vitamin D3 and other vitamins on our own from the USA. It’s funny that the doctors and the system are willing to spend huge sums on Jaro’s “supposed” recovery with medicine that will give him cancer and other autoimmune diseases in the future because of the side effects simultaneously while he keeps becoming more and more disabled to the fact the MS progression cannot be stopped and can only be slowed down but they do not want to support us in any alternative medication. On the contrary, they make things difficult for us. But vitamin D is the best way to go! The only thing that works.
I am a member of the N. American facebook group, and the Italian one, and the Brazilan one (hail google translate!). I am also one of the admins of the FB group for Norway. I have been told often to write on progress and experience in the N. American group. I do small updates, but my main mission is to tell new group members to not wait and go for this treatment. We were lucky that we found the link to vitamin D through your book and mail to you early in the diagnosis and we did not wait long. So Jaro had all his functions intact. The little numbness and tingling that he gets sometimes when he is stressed, he can live with he says. But otherwise, the brain is as sharp as anything (brain fog, concentration issues, fatigue are common in early MS). He can sunbath with no issues (discomfort with increased temperature is again early set in MS). All his functions are intact and that is because he started the protocol early. When one waits and wait and gets into the conventional medicine cycle, one or the other bodily function keeps getting weaker and weaker as the body keeps attacking its myeline sheet no matter what conventional medication one is on. One has to start early to lessen the damage. The protocol works wonderfully for almost all autoimmune diseases and I encourage others with various other autoimmune conditions to read up material on the protocol and start.
You may, of course, add my email or parts of it to your book. Knowledge is for sharing, after all.
Take care now and thank you for corresponding. Will catch you again someday soon.
Regards
Manisa

5.0 out of 5 stars I advised high dose of vitamin D and vitamin K …
By Imran on March 23, 2016
I advised high-dose of vitamin D and vitamin K to a friend of mine who has been suffering from MS for last 25 years.
With 2 months of continuous use of vitamin D, she completely recovered from MS. Though she does not have MS anymore, she is still not able to walk. Very slowly recovering from all the damage done by MS. No more MS attacks! Pain-free life.
Thanks very much to Jeff T Bowles for sharing his vitamin D theory to the world. Hope this review helps someone.

I have read the book for a week and immediately ordered Vit D3 and K2. So take six days now 40000IE daily. Many small symptoms of my MS are simply gone – disappeared. The walking distance has also improved from about 20 meters with walking aid and to about 50 meters without walking aid. I’m excited. I will still make about 20 days so lender and then make the blood test.

I am cured thanks to vitamin D

I from Brazil, sorry my English. I have multiple sclerosis. I discovered 5 years ago, I lost my right side movement, so I started the vitamin D treatment. 1 year later I was already “normal”. I have normal life today. I do gym, I run and I do not have any sequels. My dose is 80,000 IU of vitamin D
Shane says:
Cured my ms! The drugs for multiple sclerosis are a joke! VD3 and healthy eating is the cure!
Doctors are not as smart as people think.
And one final interesting note is to consider the case of the dramatic rise in MS plaguing women in Iran since the 1980’s….it suggests that Vitamin D3 deficiency is actually the cause of MS. This goes a long way towards explaining why high-dose Vitamin D3 is also the cure.
One striking example of the rise in MS is in Iran where, after the Islamic revolution in 1979, women were compelled by law to wear the veil outdoors together with clothing covering most of the body. Between 1989 and 2006, the incidence of MS in Iran increased more than eight-fold, from an incidence of about one case in 100,000 to nearly one in 10,000 in the city of Isfahan.
“The Islamic revolution can potentially explain the observed increase in MS incidence in Iran in just over 30 years,” said Dr, Ramagopalan. “Veiled women have lower vitamin D levels compared to unveiled women, giving an increased risk of low vitamin D in pregnancy which can account for the increase in MS.”
