vitamin D poll

Um, yeah, you should take extra. Yes, you can take too much. I think it was the Vitamin D Council that said taking more than 200,000 IU D3 per day over a period of time could lead to toxicity.
By the way, what's the dose of your calcium? We need 1500-2000 mg a day.

You need dry D3.

Is there more than one test where they test for D3 only, or does the test always include D3, D2 and 25 hydroxy? I notice people name different ranges. I agree with you. I think I need D3 too. All the nurse said was there are no concerns at this time. But from everything I have read on here, it is much more difficult to bring levels back up once they are deficient versus keeping them optimum.
