Lightbulb Tony,

It is the last post, just above yours I wanted you to see.

The new Vit D information has really moved quickly in medical circles.
The new upper safe limit has been recommended at 10,000 IU daily for D3.

You can have a blood test at the doctor's to confirm if you need it.
But as I read the posts at Chronic Pain at Braintalk, and Vitamin Forum over there, I see many patients in pain improving on Vit D.

My husband and I are both taking 2000IU a day now. (I was taking 1000IU daily during the winter only.)

Search the names in the last post of mine, and you can read more.
I think you can continue to use the Stanols, they are not harmful, like the statins. They are also not very strong. If that would make you feel better.
