10 000 IU a day?
Was that a typo? How did you got that target?
Just asking because I was considering 10 000 IU a week following my MDs advice (which is already higher than what it the normal off the shelf dose: 1000 IU a day).
- vldx 12y agoI'm also taking 10,000 UI daily. Anything below 20,000 UI daily is fine and non-toxic. References - pubmed.

On the other hand, just recently a Polish study showed 6,000 IU improving rowers metabolism and performance — http://suppversity.blogspot.com/2015/02/6000iuday-of-vitamin-d3-could-trigger.html http://suppversity.blogspot.com/2015/02/6000iuday-of-vitamin... However, it's unclear if lower dose would lead to similar results or if this is due to any other factors.
