DOSE?: D3 1000units is plenty. New guidlines suggest 12 as low Vit D. 25 is now recognized as normal.

Even though 25 D3 level is low normal, it is still very low. Please consult a naturally oriented doctor or licensed nutritionist. Between 50 and about 70 is thought to be optimal by many experts. Peace and good health.
