Is a high dose really dangerous?
It's commonly believed that vitamin D is toxic and that excessive intake should be avoided. However, actual toxicity is extremely rare. Research suggests that even conservatively, a daily intake of 50,000 to 100,000 international units would be required for months or even years to induce a toxic reaction.
The so-called toxicity is actually "hypercalcemia," which means that the calcium content in the blood is too high. The main risk of this condition is the formation of kidney stones, but only if it is ingested in large quantities over a long period of time.

Potential benefits of vitamin D
As early as the 1940s , scientists had already conducted research on rheumatoid arthritis and other autoimmune diseases, using up to 200,000 to 300,000 international units of vitamin D daily , and achieved good results.
Vitamin D is significantly helpful in the following aspects:
- Anti-inflammatory response
- Improve autoimmune diseases
- Regulate blood pressure
- Strengthen the immune system
The side effects of these benefits are extremely low; simply drinking about 2.5 liters of water daily (about 10 cups) can significantly reduce the risk of kidney stones. Furthermore, avoiding calcium supplements also helps reduce the risk.
General intake and safety
Most people consume well below 50,000 IU daily, typically between 10,000 and 30,000 , and this intake only lasts for a few weeks before dropping back to 10,000 . Therefore, very few people actually face the risk of toxicity.
If you are still worried, simply increasing your water intake can effectively prevent potential problems.
