Rock, Vitamin D consumption. I mentioned your prophylaxis comments about Vit D to a dietician friend. She commented on the huge dose of Vitamin D3 you recommend. The normal RDA for Vitamin D3 is 400i.u. daily.
She stated that this is a fat -soluble vitamin and so any excess that is not utilised by the body is deposited in the body and not excreted by the kidneys as are water-soluble vitamins. The result of overdosing on this vitamin is that you can develop renal stones because it enhances the absorption of any Calcium in your dietary intake.
She stated an increase possibly to 500iu per day would be a safe amount but no more.
Many thanks for all the great contributions you make on this board.
