I do recommend vitamin D3 as the best source of vitamin D. Daily dose after you get your levels to normal very in my experience from 2000 5000 IU per day. The only way you can know your dose is by getting blood tests periodically until you establish what is your normal dose to keep your levels up. Dr. Soram Diane

I was feeling really tired, which was unusual for me. I was back to my old self in less than a week. Now I'm reading that some docs are recommending 5,000 units a day, which is what I've started taking. My partner has low level depression and won't take medication for it, but will take Vitamins if handed them. What dosage of Vitamin D do you recommend for depression issues? Should we all be taking Vitamin D-3 or is there another form that is better? Thanks so much for your work on this. It sounds like it could be very helpful to many people.

I have suffered from depression since my preteen years. And I don't mean the blues, I mean debilitating depression - like - can't get out of bed depression. I am on two anti-depressants that are very helpful, but its always there - in the background. I recently had a checkup where the doctor did a lot of bloodwork because I have been drinking too much. Results come back everything normal except D deficiency. I assumed that was because of the alcohol. I had been looking for an excuse to try out a tanning salon and this was it. Holy Crap, I walked out of there feeling great. I had no idea that there was any relation between D and depression, I just noticed how great I felt all the sudden. I've been back to the tanning salon once and have started 1000 IU of D3 a day and I can say without hesitation that mood wise, this is the healthiest I have felt in years! I mean, I can't even feel depressed if I try. I even caught myself thinking I might go for a jog. What? Huh? I haven't been jogging in 20 years! I know this is all anecdotal and doesn't mean squat scientifically, but damn it means a lot to me. I'm not going to go so far as to say that I am cured. Nor am I brave enough to give up my antidepressants, But, at this moment, I am depression free and I haven't been that way since I was about 10 years old. (I'm 34 now) So... dosage recommendations? Tanning salon? WOW!… I have suffered from depression since my preteen years. And I don’t mean the blues, I mean debilitating depression – like – can’t get out of bed depression.

So… dosage recommendations? Tanning salon?

Best wishes, Dr Soram Thank you Dr Kapur,

Their mothers must be Vitamin D deficient, and when they deliver they remain deficient. Also January is probably the lowest point for sun exposure. I have upped the amount of Vitamin D I am taking recently because I found on the net that it would prevent Swine flu and now I see that I am being vindicated by other sources such as yourself. Hello from across the Pond

I too have been reading about Vitamin D recently and I can now postulate after reading your book why those with a January birthdate are more likely to suffer with Schizophrenia. Their mothers must be Vitamin D deficient, and when they deliver they remain deficient.

Also January is probably the lowest point for sun exposure.

I have upped the amount of Vitamin D I am taking recently because I found on the net that it would prevent Swine flu and now I see that I am being vindicated by other sources such as yourself.
