How much was the dose? I'm taking 5000 IU almost every day. My levels have never tested above the reference range though and I rarely have diarrhea.


Several 10.000 a day for months.


That's really excessive. In my country, the standard of care for low Vit D is a bolus dose of 60,000 IU once a week for a month, and then switching the 60K IU dose to once a month.


I half believed those pills from amazon were fake pressed inert dust and lacked the knowledge I have now.


So you were assuming it was under dosed?


No I was just dumb and not thinking too much at all.

Any high or non-sane vitamind D dosages should be accompanied by regular blood tests.
