In this video, we’re going to talk about the overconsumption of vitamin D, specifically vitamin D3 supplements. You can not overdose on vitamin D with sunlight, but you can definitely consume too much vitamin D3. If you are not consuming vitamin D3 with vitamin K2, you could end up with a buildup of calcium in your soft tissues or hypercalcemia (high blood calcium).

Here are some of the side effects of hypercalcemia:
•Vomiting
•Weakness
•Kidney stones
•Frequent urination
•Excessive thirst
•Abdominal pain
•Depression
•Heart arrhythmias

Vitamin K2 is important because it takes the excess calcium from your soft tissues and blood, and moves it into the bone. Vitamin D3 helps you absorb calcium from the small intestine. You need both of these vitamins to maintain healthy calcium levels.

High amounts of vitamin D3 taken with a calcium supplement will cause even more calcium to be absorbed into the blood. Calcium carbonate is especially problematic. Always take vitamin K2 if you’re taking vitamin D3.
