Not to bust chops but vitamin D is usually expressed in IUs. Grams and milligrams would likely kill an elephant.

8000 mg = 8 grams
You’re absolutely right. I misread the label and should have known better. I wonder what an “international unit” consists of and how it relates to milligrams/micrograms.

~LOL~ you’re right.. but I take 2000... seems about right for me... I had just increased what my husband was taking because of his asthma when he died last year, would have been interesting to see how he would have responded.
