[QUOTE="Dillinger, post: 1372653, member: 13582"] Absolutely, there are upper limits for D3 but those are unfeasibly large; i.e. multiple days in excess of 50,000 iu / day as I recall. Which says to me that 2 or 3 times the 'rda' is going to be fine. Recommended daily allowance figures are very questionable in any event; the agreed Vitamin B12 levels, for example, were based on seven people, over sixty years ago, and remain unchanged to this day. All seven had pernicious anaemia (caused by vitamin B12 deficiency) (quoted from Dr Kendrick). The only slight issue is calcium; if you are supplementing with calcium as well as taking high levels of vitamin D3 I understand that there might be a possibility of raising your calcium levels to an unhelpful point. I take D3 all year and like I said my children take it other than in the summer. Best Dillinger [/QUOTE]
