You'd have to get follow up to see if Vitamin D has gone up after taking it.
I was Wrong on the internet (lots of food has vitamin D including Eggs and Mushrooms): Vitamin D supplements may not be absorbed as digestion isn't the normal process for obtaining it.
- Broken_Hippo 6y agoWouldn't a doctor simply test? I know when I was really low, the doctor scheduled me for a blood test after 3 months of prescription-dose vitamin D pills. We've also spot checked since then.
- mindcrime 6y agoYeah, when I got back for my next checkup, I definitely plan to ask my doctor to order the Vitamin D test again so we can see how it's changed over time.
- randcraw 6y ago"Very few foods in nature contain vitamin D. The flesh of fatty fish (such as salmon, tuna, and mackerel) and fish liver oils are among the best sources [1,11]. Small amounts of vitamin D are found in beef liver, cheese, and egg yolks. Vitamin D in these foods is primarily in the form of vitamin D3 and its metabolite 25(OH)D3 [12]. Some mushrooms provide vitamin D2 in variable amounts [13,14]. Mushrooms with enhanced levels of vitamin D2 from being exposed to ultraviolet light under controlled conditions are also available." https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/VitaminD-HealthProfessional https://ods.od.nih.gov/factsheets/VitaminD-HealthProfessiona...
