I had been reading up on Vit D supplementing the other day, and now I
wished I kept this one article. Will do a search. If I can find it
again, will post the reference.
It stated that safe levels for supplementing are: 1000 IU per 25 pounds
of bodyweight.
I take 6000 IU daily, if I don't forget. No need to panic now. There
will be plenty of time to do that afterwards ;)

Oh for goodness sake--what is going on? Now I have increased mine and
hubby's levels to 4000 units per day and this article says you can
actually be worse! Has anyone (Brooks-help!) *anything* that can
dispute this, because I am rapidly coming back to the opinion that I
should stop ALL supplements. And I've just sent off for the
ultrasonic cleaner too! Damn! dee

luckily my doctor made me get the 25-hydroxy vitamin D blood test and
a vitamin B-12 test. I was astounded when my vitamin D level was 14.
So, the next summer it was 55, then last February it was 46. I'm not
taking less than I was last year, but I've not been able to sit in the
sun as much, I guess. I'm thinking about calling the doctor's office
back and asking the nurse to make sure she read it right. She was
stuttering around about the date, then she just said it's normal
level. I said I need to know the number, so she came up with 25.
