FAQ’s
Who should take vitamin D supplements?
Everyone should be aware of vitamin D deficiency and most people can take vitamin D supplements without issue. However, if you’re taking heart medication, have hyperparathyroidism, Hodgkin’s or non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, a granulomatous disease, high blood calcium levels, kidney stones, kidney disease, liver disease, or hormonal disease, you should consult your healthcare specialist before adding a vitamin D supplement to your nutritional regimen.
How common is vitamin D deficiency?
Vitamin D deficiency can affect anyone, from newborns to the elderly. Dietary sources are few and inadequate. Without adequate sun exposure, which most people do not get, it’s a good idea to take a vitamin D supplement.
Why aren’t dietary sources adequate?
There just aren’t many foods that offer a significant amount of vitamin D. The main sources are salmon, mackerel, bluefish, tuna, fortified milk, baby formula, cereal, and orange juice.
Is cod liver oil is a good source of vitamin D?
Cod liver oil does contain vitamin D but it also contains large amounts of vitamin A. Vitamin A antagonizes the action of vitamin D and too much can be toxic. The Vitamin D Council warns against taking cod liver oil for this reason.
I’m a vegan, should I take more vitamin D3 than recommended?
Not necessarily, you should just be aware that your dietary choices may make it more difficult for you to get enough vitamin D3. Before taking more than directed, we recommend consulting with your healthcare advisor who is familiar with your personal situation.
Can a person take too much vitamin D?
Yes, too much vitamin D can result in vitamin D toxicity. Indications of vitamin D toxicity include nausea, vomiting, constipation, weakness and weight loss. It can also coincide with dangerously high calcium levels that may produce kidney stones, confusion, and abnormal heart rhythms. The Vitamin D Council recommends adults do not exceed the upper limit of 10,000 IU/day.
How can I check my vitamin D levels?
Talk to your doctor about having a blood test to measure 25-hydroxy-vitamin D levels. Make sure they do not order a test for 1,25-dihydroxy-vitamin D, as this is a common error.
