What the Evidence Says

✨ AI-generated · Qwen 3.6 · grounded in 1 source · methodology

Vitamin D supports calcium absorption and bone health, with strong evidence supporting its role in immune function. However, the high dosage of 5,000 IU may lead to toxicity or hypercalcemia in some individuals. Due to these risks, the safety score reflects potential concerns regarding long-term high-dose supplementation.
