> I was diagnosed with vitamin D deficiency back in 2009 by my primary care physician. He put me on a prescription supplement, something called Drisdol. There is a generic for it that is dirt cheap. He had me taking two 50,000 IU pills a week. I found that it really increased my energy levels, as well as improved my immunity.

> Anybody else experienced dramatically increased energy levels from taking large amounts of vitamin D? I swear by drisdol now. I also swear by having a good suntan if the weather is warm out, after my vitamin D experience.

> EricThanks for sharing this, I've often taken a vitamin D supplement with my meds but never more than 1000 iu. I noticed Drisdol can be used as high as 500,000iu?!? Did also notice it is D2, and I know I have read somewhere that the D3 version is better, don't remember why...
