BTTT:)
I started taking 1-2,000 IUs/day about 5 months ago, and upped it to 4-6,000 IUs/day when hard winter started (and it’s still here).
By now, I would’ve had at least one or two bad colds or bronchial infections, and I’ve not had even one (knocking wood). I’m a believer, and the positive research is growing.
Those in sunny climates need only be in the sun (with no sunscreen) 10-20 mins./day to get their adequate dose of Vit D.
