No, that's the test.  But 32 is extremely low.  Below 80, you're at increased risk for heart disease, osteoporosis, some kinds of cancer and other bad stuff.  That's according to the Linus Pauling Institute.

 Kelly, here is what I found about the numbers from the lab results


The Institute found that serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D concentrations above 30 ng/mL are "not consistently associated with increased benefit". Serum 25-hydroxyvitamin D levels above 50 ng/mL may be cause for concern.

It also said that taking 50,000 mgs can be toxic when done for long periods of time.  

See all this stuff confuses me!  So much different information

I'm sticking with the info from the Linus Pauling Institute and the Vitamin D Council.  I want mine above 80.

I know it can be confusing and of course some people have other opinions.

Ugh! I'm way off today. Forgot my pill box at home.   And I work a 10 hour day so I don't have as long to catch up when I get home.  So I will get in about half of m vites today.  I've alread put my case in my lunch bag for tomorrow. Which I always do...somehow I just overlooked it last time.
