Detailed Answer:
Thank you for contacting HCM with your health care concerns
I am sorry to hear that you are being bothered by a low vitamin D levels. To replenish your stores of Vitamin D we recommend 1000-4000 IU daily. You are currently taking 2000 IU and that should be enough. I would also recommend getting out in the sun for 10-30 minutes a day. This will help convert the vitamin D to its effective form.
Along with Vitamin D you should also be taking calcium 1000-1200 mg daily to help promote good bone growth and prevent osteoporosis
In summary
1. 1000- 4000 IU vitamin D daily
2. Calcium 1000-1200 mg daily
3. 20-30 minutes of sunlight daily
I hope I answered your question. Please contact us again if you have any additional questions
