Frequently Asked Questions & Answers from Edubily

Is vitamin D3 vegetarian or vegan?

Vitamin D3 is vegetarian, but not vegan. It is extracted from sheep's wool fat (lanolin).

How much vitamin D is in food?

10-20% of the vitamin D requirement can be obtained through diet. Foods containing significant amounts of vitamin D include fatty fish (salmon, herring, and mackerel).

What is an optimal vitamin D level?

Information on optimal vitamin D levels varies depending on the source. According to the Robert Koch Institute, a level of approximately 20 ng/ml (50 nmol/l) is considered sufficient. However, several professional societies, including the Endocrine Society and vitamin D discoverer Michael F. Holick (recent publication in Nature), recommend at least 30 ng/ml (75 nmol/l).

How does body weight affect vitamin D dose?

Body weight has a direct impact on vitamin D requirements. First, adipose tissue can serve as a "storage" for vitamin D, making it less available in the blood. Second, the requirement increases with increasing body mass. Studies show that severely obese people need up to two to three times more vitamin D, while overweight people should, on average, consume about 50% more.

Can you overdose on vitamin D?

Theoretically, yes, but in practice, this is rare. In summer, very high amounts of vitamin D can be naturally produced in the skin through sun exposure. A dose of about 10,000 IU, often considered high, can be produced by the skin in just a few minutes. However, very high doses of more than 10,000 IU per day over extended periods should be avoided.

Does vitamin D need to be combined with vitamin K2?

Not essential, but advisable. Vitamin D influences the formation of vitamin K-dependent proteins. A supplemental supply of K2 can therefore be beneficial. You'll find a separate Vitamins K1 & K2 Preparation, as well as 2-in1 Vitamin D3 and K2 drops.

Can you take vitamin D3 during pregnancy?

Yes.
