Anonymous-I have not noticed any beneficial changes, but I am still sold on Vitamin D. I did have an increase in migraine headaches to daily when I tried to increase from 4000 IU of D3 to 6000-9000 IU. I read something about Vitamin D causing a higher absorption of calcium, which can counteract magnesium. I cut back on the Vitamin D and took chelated magnesium at night to stop the migraines. You must take the magnesium at a separate time than any calcium you might take. My husband also had migraines from increasing his Vitamin D3 intake, which stopped when he cut back on the D3 and started with magnesium. I emailed one other person online who had the same problem with Vitamin D3. So people should be aware. My D3 blood level was 40 on 4000 IU and 52 on 8000 IU. I feel the higher level is desirable, but I just can’t take it at this time.
