Some cardiologists are suggesting that people taking high dose Vit D3, to not exceed 600mg of calcium daily. This warning is based on reports of hypercalcemia or calcium depositing in arteries.

This is because the Vit D increases absorption of calcium from food sources.

If you choose to use high dose calcium with vitamin D high dose, it is recommended to get blood tests for calcium periodically.
