Our vitamin D level is intimately linked to our immunity and bone density. Low levels of vitamin D increase our risk for various cancers. It is important to note that both extremely low (deficiency) and extremely high (toxicity) levels of vitamin D are harmful. Make sure to ask your doctor to test your vitamin D level before taking this product. The general reference range for vitamin D is between 30 and 100. Your target lab value should be between 70 and 80 ng/ml. If you are below 45, take 1 capsule per day, with food.
