Benefits of Thorne’s
Vitamin D

Most experts agree that a serum level of 25(OH)D greater than 30 ng/mL is necessary for
vitamin D to exert its benefits on all tissues; however, some researchers advocate that higher
levels might be needed, claiming an optimal serum level might be 40 ng/mL or higher.* Dietary
sources are usually too low to be beneficial and most people do not get enough sun exposure, so
supplementation is necessary.

Why supplement
with vitamin D

Many vitamin D experts recommend at least 1,000 IU of supplemental vitamin D daily, and 10,000
IU or more might be necessary for some people. Other experts recommend weekly dosing of
25,000-50,000 IU vitamin D3. Also, to acutely optimize the immune response, Dr. John Cannell,
Executive Director of the non-profit Vitamin D Council, recommends up to 2,000 IU per kilogram
body weight for 3-5 days.*
