Yes, it is important to get 25OHD blood and PTH tested and monitored. My doctor tests me 4 times a year along with homocysteine and the other blood panels. Massive vitamin D doses under a doctors care can raise vitamin D level quickly, but those doses wear off in about three months, so either sun or supplementation needs to be instituted in order to not...- high gluten

Yes, 50k IU daily would be an a short term front end loading dose for those having critically low levels but you wouldn't want to take it for an extended period.- high gluten

Gluten found in Bob's Red Mill TVP using Elisa Technology test
That's 20ppm, not 20,000 ppm. https://www.fda.gov/food/nutrition-education-resources-materials/gluten-and-food-labeling "The rule specifies, among other criteria, that any foods that carry the label “gluten-free,” “no gluten,” “free of gluten,” or “without gluten” must contain less than 20 parts per million (ppm) of gluten." -

Definitely consult with your doctor before considering such high doses--5,000 IU is likely fine, but 50,000 IU could cause serious issues over time.- high gluten

Massive vitamin D doses under a doctors care can raise vitamin D level quickly, but those doses wear off in about three months, so either sun or supplementation needs to be instituted in order to not lose the gain. There have been numerous clinical trials on kidney transplant patients with doses as high a 1.5million IU with no ill effects. But those are a one time bolus under the care of doctors. One conumdrus of these really high dose supplements is a higher incidence of falls. The answer is that the patient feels so good, they are more active than usual before regaining strength and balance. -
