More info about Vitamin D

https://lifeextension.com/magazine/2010/1/startling-findings-about-vitamin-d-levels-in-life-extension-members

crazy vitamin D data from 2010

85% of people taking 1K per day were deficient

many people taking 5K per day were deficient

"as people age, they convert less vitamin D in their skin from sunlight."

"We were not able to evaluate body mass index, which is another
determinant of vitamin D requirement. Heavier people require more
vitamin D than thinner individuals"

bottom line - this article recommends that approx 7K per day be taken

NOTE - I am not sure what type of D3 they are talking about here -
unknown how it is produced - unknown if it even makes any difference
or not
