Hello sunshine. Be sure you are taking calcium as well with it. This helps to store the D in your system. Most women need extra calcium anyway. Calcium rich foods like milk will help your system rebuild this vitamin.
How long it takes to recover from a deficiency using supplements will depend on your overall health and the supplement dose. Recovery rates will vary but generally you should allow 6 to 8 weeks.
Sunlight provides a natural source of vitamin D. You can also get vitamin D from your food. Eggs, fish, cod liver oil and fortified milk are rich sources of vitamin D.
Thank you for your quick response. I appreciate this very much. I just want to feel better and to not feel so tired all the time.
