I stopped taking all my vitamins once I retired, why, I don't know. Then over the next 2 years, I was slowly geting sick all the time. A week ago, I started on my vitamin regime again, upping my vitamin D intake to 2,000 mg. I must say how fast I started recuperating, is imazing! I believe wholeheartedly in this petition. Health Canada should be more up-to-date on dosage levels and not avoiding the recent research!

I take 20,000 mg a day min, and have done for 2 years and feel fabulous. I have recovered very quickly from 3 major surgeries too.

My family has taken vitamin D above the current RDA and have seen and felt the improvement in our daily lives.

on aboWhen I read from my diabetes information on Vitamin D I should have been taking Vitamin D 50 years ago . When I read information on hypertension and cardiovascular disease I should have been taking vitamin D 45 years ago . Ihave been trying to educate my family but it is like talking to a brick wall . a winter that we just came through they should have been taking Vit D.
