vitamin D trend isn't all blue skies. Some people are overdoing it with supplements. Researchers looking at national survey data gathered between 1999 and 2014 found a 2.8% uptick in the number of people taking potentially unsafe amounts of vitamin D β that is, more than 4,000 international units (IU) per day, according to a research letter published in the June 20 issue of The Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA). And during the same time period there was nearly an 18% increase in the number of people taking 1,000 IU or more of vitamin D daily, which is also beyond the dose of 600 to 800 IU recommended for most people.
That's interesting, thanks. Bookmarked for later. I had read a book on the subject claiming that vitamin d overdose was almost impossible... I remember a period where I was taking 10k UI port day...
if you've had covid, apart from getting your vitamin d back in range, get a D-dimer blood test, it will show if you have any abnormal levels of clotting happening.
if you do, you'll need to pick your favorite way of thinning blood and keep an eye on it.
