Higher and Higher D

In the last few years both natural health practitioners and medical doctors have been recommending increased daily dosages of vitamin D.  Most of the doctor’s notes I see today are prescribing 2000 IU each day for adults and 400 IU each day for children. This is a new thing, as little as one year ago I heard very little from the medical community about vitamin D, and I was not even taking a daily supplement myself. Then about a year ago I began taking 1000 IU a day, now I have personally increased that dosage to 2000 IU daily. I am recommending 2000 IU each day to my clients, but this could be going higher again. I’ll keep you posted.

    I totally agree with your recommendations to suggest Vitamin D for your clients. There are so many health benefits to ensuring a person gets adequate amounts of this essential nutrient.

    There is even some research showing that it may assist with weight loss. Here's a link to an article that explains the benefits in more detail: Vitamin D, Health and Weight Loss.

    Studies have shown that asthma and allergy sufferers also seem to benefit from Vitamin D, and experience less symptoms...

    That is indeed good news. Vitamin D is such an important issue, almost all people in the western world are lacking it. Personally, aside from sunbathing, I find the best source to be high quality cod liver oil. Like from Blue Ice or Premier Quantum. When I started taking it I almost immediately lost all my overweight (just a couple of weeks!), had no more sneezing and my gum abscess went away too. I love Vitamin D and depending on one's overall health status I would recommend up to 6000 IU.
