High dose capsules of Dr. Paul’s vit D3 have been used as a support to the immune system in acute illness. Dr. Paul recommends 50,000 IU dose (1,000/25lb in children) once a day for 3 days at the first sign of illness. It also can be used in place of the expensive prescription D2 as a once a week dosing to lower the risk of osteoporosis. This dose is not recommended for long term daily dosing. Dr. Paul will check blood levels to assure proper dosing

Vitamin D, a fat-soluble vitamin, is essential to maintaining total body health, yet is not found in many foods. We naturally get vitamin D from exposure to summer sun. However since the industrial revolution we are generally an indoor society. We also have been told to stay out of the sun and use sunscreen whenever exposed to sun,  which all contributes to the unprecedented levels of vitamin D deficiency in our population. In the last decade we have become aware of the vital function of vit D in our bodies. Literally every cell has vit D receptors.  It's needed daily to keep the immune system functioning properly. Vitamin D deficiency leads to higher risks of all chronic illnesses including, diabetes, cancers, heart disease, mood disorders, autoimmune disease. It keeps  bones and teeth strong over your lifetime. A daily regimen of this D3 (cholecalciferol) is the best way to treat and prevent vitamin D deficiency, whether from lack of sunlight, poor nutrition, chronic illness or aging.
