Intervention group received a 50 000-unit vitamin D supplement, one in a fortnight for 8 weeks
Not sure what this formula means, but 50,000 IU is way too much for a single dose. 10,000/day is prescribed only to eldery people who have enormous deficiencies on the edge of death, according to my endocrinologist. Check your D levels before eating any supplements.

Do not take more than 100 micrograms (4,000 IU) of vitamin D a day as it could be harmful. This applies to adults, including pregnant and breastfeeding women and the elderly, and children aged 11 to 17 years.
- vrc 5y agoNot true. I am prescribed 50,000 IU once a week by an MD. Apparently I had very low vitamin D, have darker skin, and live in a dark part of the world during winter. Which is more than was used in this experiment.
