Interesting. I started taking it since I've started working inside for my day job. Apparently I should be upping my dosage. I take a multi and one or two D tablets and probably get a max of ~5600 from that outside of any absorbed from foods.

I also eat a lot of eggs. My girlfriend will be pleased to know that I'll be upping our egg intake!



> Apparently I should be upping my dosage.

Get your current nmol/L value and decide based on that data.

In Germany, you have to pay around €30 for that test. It's not covered by insurance for some reason. Anyhow, if they ask for significantly more than that, they are ripping you off.


I'll be booking my yearly physical soon, so I'll ask for a test then.

edit: Just having checked I misread the dosages completely. Right now it's much less.

    Multivitamin  - 400IU
    D3 Supplement - 400IU
I thought the multi was 4000 and I occasionally take 2 of the supplements, but usually 1. Maybe the double strength next time...


Better watch out with egg intake upping, check your cholesterol and trigliceride levels. Anyway good to consult with professional nutrituonist.
