allergy
I take 50,000 IUs of vitamin D3 daily . I stopped taking so much after I began experiencing joint pain which lingered after I reduced my doses. Soon afterward I read that reducing or stopping doses due to joint or muscle pain may not be necessary and may signal low magnesium. I wish I could find the link…I thought I saved it in my favorites. Well anyway, I began taking the higher doses of vitamin D and increased my magnesium intake. The pain is nearly gone with the additional magnesium. Also, you might wonder why I would take such a high dose in the first place. I began to look at issues such as my weight, dark skin tone and diabetes. I figured to keep it high for a short period of time. Then I began noticing that my spring time allergies began to dissipated greatly. I had wondered if the vitamin D3 might be the cause. I discovered that it did indeed help reduce the intensity and frequency of allergies.
