You probably weren't taking enough from what I understand.  Most people can
take 5000 IU a day for maintenance, if their levels are already up.  (Said
with the thought that you will do your homework and find out how much you
personally need to take!)  

 

http://grassrootshealth.net/ is a very good site for Vit D info.  This video
in particular is fantastic:
http://www.ucsd.tv/search-details.aspx?showID=16940.  It's 30 minutes long,
but worth every second to watch it.

 

>From what I can tell, Vit D is super important.  I will never be without it
again!

Right after joining this group someone posted how important Vitamin D3 was
to our health. My daily vitamin wasn't going to cut it during the flu season
so following suggestions I ordered some for myself and smaller dosage for
the kids. 

I've been taking 2000IU daily for over 3 weeks. Today I got results from my
physical blood test on Vit D and it was 25! The doctor called in a
prescription for 50,000/week. 

Does Vit D take time to build up or was I simply not taking enough do you
think? 

I also wanted to say thanks to those that had the Vit D discussion. I would
not have thought to check otherwise.
