Vitamin D gel caps from iherb are very inexpensive. Much less than in stores.
If he uses 4000IU and got that reading he must have been near zero when he started, or the dry is not working at all for him.
The general rule (but not guaranteed to work for everyone) is 1000IU for ever 10 ng serum reading. Some people seem to store this in fat, or don't absorb. So this is just a generalized guideline.

Alan does NOT use Olive oil in salad dressing.
Alan does not eat peanut butter.
And I will buy the gel caps. I'll tell him what you said about how he probably was at zero when he began.
What I CAN do is saute his veggies in Olive Oil. that's a start. But that is not enough fatty food right? He should be eating Salmon once or twice a week. He won't go near any fish. Drives me crazy.
And he lives on those stupid low calorie Jello pudding things. He puts them in the freezer and thinks because they are low calorie, he can eat them all night long. Of course he can't do this.
He did NOT get the light bulb moment about food that I got.
He has severe neuropathy, he has depression, and he still uses food (even though it's low fat and low sugar), well he uses food to self medicate.
And I don't buy the stuff, he does.
Good Lord!!
