D3 vitamin intake

[TidWell]

I take 6000iu a day, work 3rd shift and sleep during the daylight hours.

I work late at night and early morning as well, but I only take around 2000iu, 6 is pushing it since Vit D is fat soluble it could stay in your system too long.

Most of them are the same just get a D3 soft gel dont take tablet or powder form

I used to get those deals on Puritan Pride for cheap they have specials right now they have a 20 percent off coupon sale

Sorry this is a bit of bump but why do you prefer gel over tablet or powder form? Do you believe it has advantages in absorption?

It appears supplementing vitamin D has little effect and that getting sun exposure is more important.

"Yet vitamin D supplementation has failed spectacularly in clinical trials. Five years ago, researchers were already warning that it showed zero benefit, and the evidence has only grown stronger. In November, one of the largest and most rigorous trials of the vitamin ever conducted—in which 25,871 participants received high doses for five years—found no impact on cancer, heart disease, or stroke."
