Lightbulb all

standard vitamin mixtures reflect the old Vit D paranoia, and
have quite low doses. (200-400IU)

You really have to read the link I gave above.

Within the last 5 years the Vit D research has exploded, and
Vit D deficiency has become a huge priority.

You would really have to take Vit D as a stand alone
supplement. D3 is very INexpensive.

This is the one I use:

How inexpensive is THAT? And with high quality too.

I'd really recommend getting a blood test first. If you don't, I would not go above 2000 IU until you really know where you are. Estimates now are that 1/2 of all Americans are deficient.
