Hypervitaminosis is just as dangerous as a lack of vitamin.

Vitamin D, along with the usual paracetamol, has become one of the most popular drugs in pharmacies. The fact is that, according to American doctors, a significant shortage of this vitamin can cause acute leakage of COVID-19. Vitamin D strengthens the immune system and helps fight any infections.

For Russians, it is really not enough because of the small amount of sun and the regime of self-isolation.

However, doctors called for a thoughtful approach to his reception. The norm for an adult is 2 thousand units per day. Some take 20 and 50 thousand units per day, and this can lead to hypervitaminosis, which has serious consequences.

Large dosages can only be prescribed by a doctor after testing.
