A member asked:
If my 25 oh vitamin d level is 20 ng/mol, how many international units of vit d3 supplement should i be taking, and should i also be taking it with k2?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Somewhat low: Since vitamin D is fat soluble, it could take several months to get levels to normal range. For your age, recommended daily supplement is 800-2000 units of D-3 daily. Would check level again in about 60 days. Sunshine is your best source, buy sunblock can keep levels low.
