I recevied an email from the Vitamin D Council, and it states that Quest will continue to do Vit D testing in a way that does not give you a true level. They said you must divide the level Quest gives you by 1.3, which changes my level from 35 to 26, optimum being 50. So, I will be sticking with my D.

Am I taking enough though? I take 2000IU's a day.

My insurance company only pays for Quest Labs. I wonder if enough people complain, if they will include another lab?
