You need to get your D levels up fast
Well actually taking massive amounts won't do that. The form of vitamin D that's usable by the human body is call Calcifedol. It's made by the liver from ingested vit D and it takes about a week.
So if you want to keep your D levels high then take it everyday. 1000-2000 mg daily is more than adequate.
Since D is fat soluble it will accumulate in the body. I don't know at what point it becomes toxic but I'd advise against taking massive amounts. But hey do what you want.
Yeah, if you can get a vitamin D shot (calcifedol) it is immediately there. There's nothing dangerous about taking 50,000 UI of vitamin D to get your levels up. If you don't take a big dose (or get a shot) taking small amounts will take a month to get your levels up.
I don't know how much 1000-2000 mg of vitamin D is. Usually it's measured in UI not mg.
Yes, should have been IUs not mgs. Woops.
