Any advice I’ve had from experts in this field say it’s not toxic, even at high doses. Check out this vid by Dr. Prendergast; he talks about this very issue.

Furthermore, anyone living in a hot climate wouldn’t need vitamin D supplementation.

I haven’t had a cold or sniffle since and I have made great gains since taking it, so there could be some real science behind it???

Tried a new multivitamin 3 months ago. The last 2 months my workouts have been a struggle. Went back to my regular multi 2 1 /2 weeks ago. Workouts have improved. Vitamin D3 in new vitamin was 70 i.u.’s. D3 in my regular vitamins are 1,600 i.u.;s!! Never thought about vitamin D in the summer (live in northwest Pennsylvania-lots of sun), only took in the winter. That Has Just Changed. Thank You Mark!!!

My sister needs to take standard D as she has a calcium deficiency. I take D3 in drop form with a little water and in a non scientific way it makes me feel more energetic.

A is the most toxic, D the second most. As a piece of trivia, the people with the highest incidence of vitamin D toxicity are Eskimos, as seal and walrus liver are big parts of their diet, and contain tremendous amounts of vitamin D. I have an M.D., and I take a D supplement, but I would advise people thinking about taking mega-doses of A and D to do their homework. Too much A can be fatal.

Can i ask why?
I take my vitamin D in drops, it’s mixed with olive oil as supposedly fat is meant to help with the absorption of the vitamin. I also have difficulty swallowing large capsules
