Don’t Take Too Much

As long as a person is not exceeding the intake of 4,000 IU daily it is fine but daily intake of more than this can lead to symptoms like:

  • nausea
  • constipation
  • vomiting
  • weakness
  • loss of appetite
  • weight loss
  • kidney damage

Excess Calcium

Excess of vitamin D in the body means excessive calcium in the blood- this can cause problems like that of heart and mental confusion.

If you are on some specific medication, you should not take vitamin D supplement without consulting your doctor as it can interfere with the working of the medicine.

Go To A Doctor

If vitamin D deficiency is observed then the doctor first takes a blood test to measure the vitamin D levels.

If there is too much intake of the vitamin then the person might have symptoms of vitamin D toxicity- in this case too medical help should be sought.

Get enough sunlight and if that is not possible take enough supplements. Do not exceed either.
