Has your give a sh*t done got along?

Feeling like you just don’t care anymore, like your motivation’s run off and left you behind? You’re not alone! I, Dr. Jill Crista, author of Break the Mold, calls this “your give a sh*t done got along,” a Wyoming phrase for burnout.

If mold’s got you down, low Vitamin D might be the culprit. I’m here to share how it’s linked, why it matters, and how you can get your spark back. Ready to kick mold to the curb and reclaim your health?

**What “Give a Sh*t Done Got Along” Means**

In Wyoming, where I grew up, folks say “my give a sh*t’s done got along” when they’re having a rough day. It’s like your mood, energy, and care have bolted out of the barn, through the gate, and vanished, nowhere to be found. Here’s what it looks like:

Burnout Vibes: You’re overwhelmed, stuck, or just can’t muster the energy to care.
More Than a Bad Day: If this is your everyday mood, mold and low Vitamin D could be to blame.
Why It Matters: You need your drive to tackle mold-related decisions, like fixing your home or health.

Why Low Vitamin D Steals Your Drive

Low Vitamin D can tank your mood and leave you stuck. My patients with low vitamin D have completely lost their “give a sh*t.” Here’s how it affects you:

Low Mood: Vitamin D deficiency makes you feel down, unmotivated, or overwhelmed.
Paralysis Mode: You might freeze when faced with big decisions, like addressing mold exposure.
Decision Delays: This can lead to inaction, letting others sway you, or ignoring the mold problem altogether.

How Mold Messes with Your Vitamin D

Mold doesn’t just make you feel lousy—it sabotages your Vitamin D levels. Mycotoxins reduce the number of receptors that you have for Vitamin D. Here’s what’s going on:

Fewer Receptors: Mycotoxins from mold lower your Vitamin D receptors, so even supplements may not work well.
Tougher Absorption: This means your body struggles to take in Vitamin D, keeping levels low.
Target Range: I aim for 60–90 ng/mL in patients to boost receptors and resupply stores.

**Get Your Give-a-Sh*t Back**

You can’t let mold win, and I’ve got a plan to get your drive back: optimize your Vitamin D. You cannot only do it with supplements alone. You must get outside. Here’s how to do it:

Get Sunlight: Daily outdoor time activates Vitamin D conversion, telling your body to boost levels.
Use Liposomal D+K: I recommend a high-quality supplement like Liposomal D+K to support your levels. Check it out at Liposomal D+K.
Aim for 60–90 ng/mL: Work with your doctor to test and maintain this range for optimal mood and energy.
Stay Consistent: Combine sun exposure with supplements for the best results.
