There is a push for us to take in more vitamin D. Can we over do it?

Yes, it's possible to overdose on vitamin D; it's rarely a good idea to take in too much of anything, no matter how good it is. If you have too much vitamin D, you can develop vitamin D toxicity. Symptoms can include nausea, vomiting, constipation, weakness, poor appetite, and weight loss.

The highest amounts suggested are no more than 1000 IU for children under 1 year and no more than 2000 IU for anyone else.
