Vitamin D is VERY important.

Careful now. Vitamin D is a fat soluble vitamin, meaning, you take this, it doesn’t just wash out via pee like vitamin C.

“excerpt follows”

Because the body has a built in mechanism for preventing toxicity with vitamin D produced in the skin, there is no risk of vitamin D toxicity due to ultraviolet-B (UVB) exposure - whether from the Sun or a tanning bed.

Supplemental vitamin D bypasses this built-in protection and, if excessive amounts are consumed over a period of time, 25(OH)D blood levels can reach a point where toxicity is possible
