Signs of vitamin D overdose
Excessive intake of dietary supplements without medical supervision can lead to elevated vitamin D levels in the body, resulting in a condition known as vitamin D toxicity. This rare condition may cause serious complications such as kidney damage, formation of kidney stones, heart rhythm disturbances, and calcium deposits in tissues, as well as severe dehydration, which can be life-threatening in severe cases. Recommendations indicate that the safe daily limit for adults is 4,000 IU, and regular testing should be conducted to ensure levels do not rise excessively. It is also important to consult a doctor before taking high doses to avoid the risks of toxicity.
