Hello Bodhisattva, Do you happen to know what your blood levels of vitamin D are?
You may be in an area that has the proper sun and may spend enough time outside to get all the D you need. If that is the case, you don't need to worry about D. On the other hand, if your vitamin D levels are low, you may need more than a tin or two of sardines and may want to consider a vacation in the tropics.

They aren't cheap. Since they are very small, usually young, the toxic content of them is extremely minute, or in many cases, non-existent. Sardines are pretty safe, and are a super food, lots of magnesium in them too! Regardless of what they tell us, I absolutely do not believe D3 is a precursor to whatever you'd get from the sun, or sardines, I don't think the so-called experts are all that authoritative, especially with nature.. It's just not natural in my opinion, and I tend to go with the most natural solution to any problems when possible. Often, food is our medicine, and simple diet adjustments can offer some pretty measurable improvements in health. You can only trash your body so long before it starts to rebel, it works very hard to keep you healthy, against all odds at times! I don't believe anyone needs 15K IU of synthetic D a day, that just sounds ridiculous to me. But I'm not about to tell anyone what to do with their free will, it is your body and I have nothing but respect for you.. For me, I don't even like D in my milk, I'd love for raw milk to not be "Illegal" in this country (people are arrested in this country for selling real milk, can you believe that?), it's considered a super-powered food. Yogas have lived for decades with perfect health just consuming heated milk with a dash of ginger. Very good stuff, but over cooking it destroys a whole lot of the goodness in it. If you pay attention to trends, you'll see a whole lot of really beneficial things eventually get stuff done to them so they aren't so beneficial. Much of this we can thank our so-called govt. that represents the people. Milk - Hormones, overcooked, fortified with D, Antibiotics, watered down, etc. Almonds - Superfood when raw, govt passed a law requiring them all to be "Radiated". Not so good anymore. Camphor - Incredible amounts of uses, very medicinal, banned in it's pure form, and over 10% concentration. Water - Chlorinated w/nasty byproducts, fluoridated (toxin), and reprocessed very quickly from waste. (we're energetically consuming our own feces) Tobacco - Very medicinal, anti-parasitic, but commercial tobacco has too many additives, and is radioactive. Seeds - GMO, Animal DNA, Pesticide Enzymes, it's all a big mess, you know? Fortified is a joke. The list is huge, I will stop here for now, suffice it to say, these people contaminate everything they get involved in.
