> Is there any consensus on that?

I'm not sure. there's two doctors that i based my supplementation of D3+K2 on, but i cannot remember their names or link the videos. The assertion made was that blood serum 25OH Dwhatever of 100ng/ml (or dl, i always forget, but the one that makes sense) is enough to prevent most disease, like colds, flu, etc.

Another interesting thing vis a vis overdose/excess D3 is that for covid there was a hospital protocol for 50,000 IU given three times to "knock covid out"

I never read a study, sorry, so i can't link.

I started on this path because my wife got cancer and afterward was getting sick and always tired, d3 serum test was 28ng/ml so we brought her up to 100ng/ml and she hasn't been "sick" in 5 years. Additionally she no longer has to supplement calcium, which her oncologist said she'd have to do the rest of her life.

I buy "Micro Ingredients Vitamin D3 10,000 IU + K2 MK-7 200 mcg, 600 Softgels with Virgin Coconut Oil (2 Pack)" - B0D7B94P8D, and have for years. consistently good, and the blood tests prove it's real. Not affiliated.

I supplement a lot of stuff because my diet sucks and it's something i have been working on this year.
