Intake necessary to maintain effective blood levels of vitamin D is higher than once thought. Take a cumulative amount of 2,000IU to 5,000IU of vitamin D3. After a period of one to two months take the blood test 25-hydroxyvitamin D3. Your result should be at least 50 ng/ml with many researchers and physicians recommending a level of greater than 60 ng/ml. Your doctor can order this test or you may run them yourself using Medstat 972-442-2204 (contact Chris Nall) or directlabs.com. Both will direct you to a convenient Labcorp to draw for the test.
