I like to talk about the risks of taking 10,000 IUs of vitamin D3.

It sounds like a lot, 10,000, but is it really that much?

Just so you know very briefly, IUs stand for international units, okay?

So 10,000 international units of vitamin D is equivalent to not even one milligram,

not even a half a milligram.

It's actually one quarter of one milligram, 0.25 milligrams, which is 250 micrograms, okay?

That's 10,000 international units about them in D3.

So is there a risk of taking that much?

I think there's a bigger risk of not taking that much.

Let me explain.

I recently found some information that literally blew me away.

And I think it's going to blow you away too.

But first, let me just give you a little foundation of what we're talking about.

The great majority of us are deficient about them in D.

Now, I guess the conflicting information is that the RDAs of vitamin D is between 600 to 800

international units, okay?

And now we're talking about taking 10,000.

It sounds like a huge gap, but what you have to realize is that 600 to 800 IUs

is based on old research relating to preventing osteoporosis bone loss.

It's not updated and correlated with all the new information related to the benefit

of vitamin D for your immune system.

What's even more wild is that vitamin D is not really even a vitamin.
