Go outside and get some sunshine for some free "D". That light on your computer screen won't provide it.

Some of us live above the 37th parallel. I wish I lived in LA or Florida. I miss the sunshine.

How long have you been taking 10,000 IU's? Any side effects so far?

I'm curious because I have been taking 5000 for a while now but am curious about bumping it up.

So far no ill effects. I've read online that it is very difficult to OD on vitamin D. This website says that you have to supplement 50,000 IUs a day for a few months to see the effects.

I doubt that 10,000 a day would set you over. In the summer time, I would lower the dose since there is sunlight.
