"According to the Institute of Medicine, 4000 IU is the safe upper level of daily vitamin D intake. However, doses up to 10,000 IU have not been shown to cause toxicity in healthy individuals"

I've been taking 10,000 daily for several years.

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4821095/

"Vitamin D3 therapy (50,000-100,000 IU/week) was safe and effective when given for 12 months to reverse statin intolerance in patients with vitamin D deficiency. Serum vitamin D rarely exceeded 100 ng/mL, never reached toxic levels, and there were no significant change in serum calcium or eGFR."

So I’m way way below the safe level at 2000IU....which according to the link It’s not at all enough to correct the definciency... as they wrote..”Vitamin D3 therapy (50,000-100,000 IU/week) was safe and effective when given for 12 months to reverse statin intolerance in patients with vitamin D deficiency.”
