@zorkntatertotter i saw a study on a particular plant which when consumed by mice, increased calcium absorption. This plant produced D3. You can find the report on this study through a google search.

@zorkntatertotter It's going to be great for humanity as tests and monitoring capability will become cheaper and and more readily available as tempurature, pulse, and blood pressure have become. Eventually, tools will be created that allow for virtually instantaneous measurement of things like vitamin D in the blood among other nutrient levels. And with that knowledge people will be able to better take care of their body's needs.

i dont think there is an overdose issue with a clean source of vitamin D3. . yull hear mercola say it soon enough

I believe I have heard some vitamin D experts say that humans don't reach toxic levels until about 100,000 IU over several days. He also said a human adult can do 10,000 to 20,000 as a therapeutic dose.

I think the toxicity level becomes an issue if people get thier vitamin D by eating liver because they then will certainly overdose of Vitmin A

it appears the differences of Vitamin D requirments from diet may be a factor in condition of the surface of the small intestine and it's absorption cababilities.
