Could you advise on the correct dosage of vitamin D I should be taking and how often I need to take it? I want to make sure I'm doing it right.

The recommended dose of vitamin D varies depending on age, deficiency level, and health status; generally, 600-800 IUday is recommended for adults, 1,000-2,000 IUday for deficient individuals, and 2,000-5,000 IUday for severe deficiencies; take vitamin D supplements with a fatty meal, preferably breakfast, and consider the following dosing schedules: - Mild deficiency: 600-800 IUday for 1-3 months - Moderate deficiency: 1,000-2,000 IUday for 3-6 months - Severe deficiency: 2,000-5,000 IUday for 6-12 months
