I'm a bit concerned because my vitamin D3 level is really low, at just 10. Ive started taking 60,000 IU every week to try and get it back up. Does this sound like a good plan to improve my levels? And if it works, what kind of change should I expect in my vitamin D3 levels after using it for 8 weeks?
