OK but not optimal: The official "normal range" of vitamin d is 30-100, so 34 puts you (barely) into that range, but many authorities believe for optimal benefits one should have a level of 45-80. See http://bit.Ly/166dliq ; http://bit.Ly/1ekkvkv ; http://huff.To/1fzsrq3 there are studies supporting the idea that a level of 45-50 gives greater benefits than a level of 34.
