Unless it’s for a very short period of time that is too much vitamin D to take on a daily basis
I took this level during the flu. You are correct it’s much more than the recommended levels especially in summer with ample sunshine. A lot of people still take these huge doses.. I found a much lower D dosage
Ideal intakes of Vitamin D vary pretty wildly from person to person. Regardless, the inclusion of the K2 helps prevent the calcification of excess D3 in the blood vessels (the main problem with taking too much Vitamin D), making higher intake levels of the vitamin much more innocuous. I take 10K IU fairly often, so I’m in for one of these!

Vitamin D is one of the most under-recommended supplement.

I concur. I’ve seen vlogs from doctors explaining that the current dosage standard for Vitamin D3 is incorrect. I recall one of them explaining higher dosage like you mentioned.
Also MK-7 bioform K2 is one of the best(if not the best) available.
Note: I have no stake in this brand nor I’m paid to say this
Considering that “NatureMade” D3+K2 is $30 for only 30 pill is a bargain.
