It’s almost impossible for anyone to get close to taking too much vitamin D. Your body can make far, far more of it than you’d ever normally take in vitamin form. Further the body takes in vitamin D inefficiently as with many vitamins so you’re not going to absorb 100% of the vitamin D you’d be intaking anyway.

The author fails to not that the vast, vast moajority of problems people have associated with vitamin D is being DEFICIENT in vitamin D, not having too much.

This basically is a horsepucky article.

Actually I saw the author took one sentence to note most of the problems are not having enough. But the whole slant of the article is too much. This just falls along the same lines of other articles that are anti-supplement, people cant be trusted to take care of themselves with supplements crap.

Bottom line - supplements are far safer than OTC and prescription drugs, hands down. You can take a whole bottle of vitamin D and it won’t kill you. You can’t say the same for regular tylenol. Or just about any other drug. Supplements are far safer, and have far fewer and milder side effects, if any. Most you pee the excess out. Not so with drugs.
