Good article, but it does not cover toxicity; you can take too much vitamin D and this has very negative affects. Usually a multivitamin is enough for supplementing; taking extra is where you can run into issues; consult your Doctor.

IIRC, toxicity is very rare even in very high doses (like 20 k IU a day) for weeks/ two or so months.

There was a study where participants had been consuming 10kiu per day for years without any toxicity.

Evidence that multivitamin d is useful?
