SCS - Can I take a larger dosage of D3 Shield?

We recommend taking 1 capsule of D3 Shield daily which is 5000 IU. 

However, in certain circumstances, you might consider taking 2 capsules of D3 Shield per day for a certain period of time.

Here are some examples of such circumstances:

  • winter season
  • weak immunity
  • darker skin tone
  • obesity
  • liver disease
  • kidney disease
  • taking certain medications to lower cholesterol like statins
  • H Pylori
  • Lyme disease
  • Epstein-Barr virus
  • Tuberculosis
  • Cytomegalovirus

In these cases, you might take up to 10000 IU for a couple of months. After a couple of months, please ask your doctor to order a blood test for you to measure Vitamin D blood levels to determine further dosage.

DO NOT take Vitamin D3 at a higher dosage for a prolonged period of time without the guidance of your personal physician.
