Recent Vitamin D hoopla may be flawed!  The recent findings of the benefits of vitamin D, coupled with recommendations for high levels of D3 supplementation could be dangerous to your health.  In her book, The Right Dose, Patricia Hausman correctly warns about the irreversible consequences of supplemental vitamin D overdosing.  The condition caused by such overdosing is called hypercalcemia, or excessive amounts of calcium in the blood or urine.   Hausman documents cases of and the symptoms of such overdosing, with kidney damage being the major, but not the only danger.  Before you run off and start gulping down large quantities of vitamin D supplements, check out why Hausman recommends daily intake of well under 1000 I.U. for this vitamin, and even less for children.
