Don’t Take Too Much
As long as a person is not exceeding the intake of 4,000 IU daily it is fine but daily intake of more than this can lead to symptoms like:
- nausea
- constipation
- vomiting
- weakness
- loss of appetite
- weight loss
- kidney damage
Excess Calcium
Excess of vitamin D in the body means excessive calcium in the blood- this can cause problems like that of heart and mental confusion.
If you are on some specific medication, you should not take vitamin D supplement without consulting your doctor as it can interfere with the working of the medicine.
Go To A Doctor
If vitamin D deficiency is observed then the doctor first takes a blood test to measure the vitamin D levels.
If there is too much intake of the vitamin then the person might have symptoms of vitamin D toxicity- in this case too medical help should be sought.
Get enough sunlight and if that is not possible take enough supplements. Do not exceed either.
