Make people aware of the correct RDA so they can increase their intake of Vit. D. I was not aware of this until a parent mentioned he'd heard about this. Not many of us are anywhere near close to taking the RDA with such a difference in what was recommended for years and today's recommendation.

I had almost no Vitamin D left in body and to be limited to taking the limited levels that Health Canada allows I would have taken forever to bring my body into normal range.

I take 6,000 IUDs a day and was initially told by my Family Physician that I was Vitamin D deficient. The doctors are no longer able to test their patients for a D deficiency and that is wrong. Preventative medicine needs to take a front seat and lessen the burden on our health system.

My doctor suggested that I take Calcium with 800 IU's of Vitamin D with it.
