I don't think it's true. Who is JJ medicine? He says he is only a medical resident. That means he is totally blue pilled. Dr. Steve Gundry (author of Plant Paradox) says he has never seen vitamin D toxicity unless IV'ed. It's safe. Your doctor is also blue pilled. He is probably against natural healing by taking natural substance.

I was overdosed on D. I was quite sick. It took me a while to figure it out and lots of pain. The specialist I went to wasn’t really wanting to make another doctor look bad but I was severely overdosed. Two or three doctors were appalled that anyone would prescribe the amount I was taking long term. One of those was my chiropractor.

Aren’t Chiropractors more into natural health? Wow I’m sorry you went through all that. Hoping you are much better now. I am taking the 5,000 IU w/ K2 every other day now. But I was only taking it twice a week for about a month after the 100 ng blood level. I don’t really feel any different.

I don’t know if it’s a reliable link now that you point that out. But nobody needs more than 100 ng blood level whether it’s toxic or not. It’s certainly sufficient. I’m a senior citizen and I haven’t caught even a cold in the last 12 years since I stopped getting the flu shots.

It's a good point and I noticed they say Vitamin D3 2000-4000 *unless deficient and doses will need to be increased* .

Just because a vitamin is good doesn't mean more is always better - we have to do our research.

It’s also good to take in combo with K2. Dr Mercola sells B3K2 but it’s 5,000 IU so I am taking it every other day now instead of every day.

If your blood levels are 100 as op says hers were?

My blood level was 100 ng.ml. The doctor said it was borderline toxic. I had no symptoms other than muscle aches which I did not know was from the high Vit D.
