Many years ago I learned of the benefits of vitamin D. I began taking supplements and have been taking 10,000 per day for many years—no toxicity, no problem.

I am 83, still healthy and walk five miles per day six days per week. And, I still feel great.

I have a wonderful friend who, long ago, became convinced that taking too much vitamin D3 will result in toxicity. She would NEVER supplement Vitamin D for fear that it would kill her. I have tried to talk to her about it, but she simply refuses to listen.

Recently her doctor discovered that her bone density is deteriorating and finally recommended Vitamin D3 supplements along with Vitamin K (note: a very low dose).

She recently began following her doctor’s orders and began supplementing. But, just this past week she once again expressed to me the fear that she might suffer toxicity from too much Vitamin D!

Sigh.

Thanks for reminding me. I have been out of Koncentrated K, so I reordered.
