How can 20,000 IU of vitamin D3 be toxic if 40 minutes of sun exposure provides the same amount?

Yet, most guidelines recommend only 600 IU daily—just enough to prevent rickets, not optimize health.

Here’s why you need way more vitamin D3 than you think:🧵 Image Over 90% of people are vitamin D deficient—and don’t know it.

Why it matters:

• It’s vital for immunity, blood pressure, muscles, and brain health
• Low levels are linked to depression, pain, and inflammation

Why aren’t people getting enough? Image

10 popular health “hacks” that are completely fake.
