Making sure that people have sufficient vitamin D levels is one of the most powerful and cost-effective ways of improving health and quality of life. Your recommendations will do the opposite. I had to take 10,000 iu for about nine months to achieve an acceptable level. I live at a latitude the same as southern- middle Canada.

Over the last 3 years I've raised my D level from 17 to 40. This increase took supplementing with 5000 IU a day. Please reevaluate the RDA for vitamin D, it will save lives.

My rheumatologist advised being in the 50-80 ng/ml range for vitamin D and I can only do this by taking 5,000 IUs each day.
