@carbcounter yup - magnesium glycinate…and I’ve always eaten plenty of nuts (too many sometimes) and foods high in Vitamin D…it’s just ME and because we’re all different I don’t worry about it any longer.
It’s true that extreme deficiencies get all the attention and ‘optimal’ might just be unattainable for everyone. Thanks!

@heavyphil
I think it just about impossible to get sufficient vitamin D from diet unless you live on ocean fish, and these days that would give you mercury poisoning.

My D levels were higher a couple of years ago, I get both sun and take supplements (and at least eat wild salmon frequently, and sushi very occasionally), I was surprised when they were lower at my last checkup, maybe with age it gets harder to maintain. I also get D in a multivitamin, and in 5000iu supplements I take 5-6 times per week.
