Vitamin D Side Effects
Very bizzare. When I take Vitamin D, only 1000 IU I become quite constipated and bloated, and also notice a decrease in mood. My multi has 800IU (although in solid form) so I can't see how I'm possibly getting too much. Has anyone experienced this, or if not, have any guesses what it could possibly be?
My current supps are: Pomology Mens Multi EPA/DHA 3000mg Turmeric |

hey, Simon, I am currently taking 8,000IU of D and 20,000 mg of omega 3 and I am not having any symptoms. Could it be the brand of vitamin D that you are using? If it is not the brand, and you are sensitive to vitamin D in general, I would go to a health professional and get it figured out. Sorry I could not be more helpful.

Could it have something to do with Cal/Mag status. I don't eat that much calcium (I cup yogurt a day).

Just found this thread.....most likely it is your multi. I see it almost daily. :) Especially if the multivitamin is high in iron and other minerals.

Hmm. But why would it flare up when I start taking the D and go away when I end it. I stopped taking the D a few days ago and feel much better.

brand is pretty incidental if you're talking about d.
if you get a company that's cGMP, you'll know what's in the tin is what's in the tin. vegans and non will have different answers, but NOW is a good company that has both vegan and non-vegan sources of D. mc
