Maybe a different formulation by: Kerri Knox, RN- The Immune Queen!
Hi Jody,
Well, it could be that your Vitamin D has something in it that is bothering her. The coating or the oil in it could possibly have gone rancid, etc.
So, trying a different formulation is a good idea. Trying a liquid like Sunshine Mist Vitamin D Spray is a good idea too so that she doesn't have to swallow pills.
You could also give her a weeks worth of dosage all at once. There is 1000 IU's per spray in the Vitamin D Spray above and you could just give her 14 sprays once a week. This is PERFECTLY safe, and in fact, one study went to South America and gave the children there 100,000 IU's all at once at the beginning of winter, then another 100,000 IU's 3 months later and all the children were fine and had good levels.
There is plenty of evidence that Vitamin D is safe and effective giving it in large doses less frequently. So, if she still has some trouble with it for whatever reason, she would likely to have the diarrhea just once a week.
If that is the case, you could even just give her dosage all at once for the MONTH and then her problem would occur MUCH less frequently.
So, what about YOU, are YOU taking Vitamin D as well?
