[QUOTE="Sid Bonkers, post: 488630, member: 19121"] I would seriously urge you to read this link Totto [url]http://www.mayoclinic.org/vitamin-d-toxicity/expert-answers/faq-20058108[/url] Quote from linked page re: Vitamin D toxicity: The main consequence of vitamin D toxicity is a buildup of calcium in your blood (hypercalcemia), which can cause symptoms such as poor appetite, nausea and vomiting. Weakness, frequent urination and kidney problems also may occur. Taking 50,000 international units (IU) a day of vitamin D for several months has been shown to cause toxicity. This level is many times higher than[B] the recommended dietary allowance (RDA) for most adults of 600 IU of vitamin D a day[/B]. Doses higher than the RDA are sometimes used to treat medical problems such as vitamin D deficiency, but these are given only under the care of a doctor and only for a short time. [/QUOTE]
