Vitamin D3 2,000 IU is a dietary supplement that promotes the body's absorption of calcium and phosphorus, which are essential for the development and maintenance of healthy teeth and bones. Scientific evidence links low levels of vitamin D to an increased risk of: Type 1 Diabetes, muscle and bone pain and perhaps more serious, cancers of the breast, colon, prostate, ovaries, esophagus, and lymphatic system. Scientific studies show that to achieve blood levels of vitamin D that can protect you against chronic diseases, you need an optimal dose of 1,000 IU of vitamin D3 a day.
Vitamin D acts as a hormone in your body. Its tasks include keeping bones strong by boosting their calcium absorption. Vitamin D may also help muscle function. The body makes Vitamin D when exposed to sunlight, but that ability fades with age. If you get little or no sun exposure you will need to take more than 2,000 IU per day, how much more depends on your latitude of residence, skin pigmentation, and body weight. Generally speaking, the further you live from the equator, the more you will have to take to maintain healthy blood levels.
The only way to know how much Vitamin D to take is by repeatedly getting your blood tested, called a 25 (OH)D test, and seeing what you need to do to keep your level around 50ng/ml. We also stock this in 5,000 IU and 50,000 IU (recommended for when you first feel a cold or the flu).
