Thinking about supplementing vitamin D. I live in a northern climate and from what I've read lots of people suffer from vitamin D deficiency.
However, I seem to find a lot of different recommendations concerning the daily dose.
What is a safe, but effective daily dose for an average adult male?

also supplements general

The upper limit is pretty fucking high so it doesn't matter. As Dr Cox said, "for the love of God, it's aspirin. Open her mouth throw and handful at her, and whatever sticks, that's the correct dosage"

>>35691414
Only been taking it for 2w or so now but yeah, not as depressed as I was before. Might be placebo, but even a placebo is a good thing.
Nothing negative.

>skin cleared up pretty fast
I didn't know it helped with bad skin, but that sounds really good.

just ordered some, it should arrive tomorrow. Should I take the whole dose at once or spread it throughout the day?

>>35691594

i do 4000iu a day

You will love it.... you WILL love it
