A member asked:

If i am taking 1000iu of vitamin d3 a day, could i take 7 capsules in one shot to cover the whole week?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Yes: Vitamin d 3 is a fat based vitamin meaning that it is stored in the body's fat and released as needed. So yes, you can take it once per week.
