10,000 IU is extremely high. The daily recommended dose is 600 IU and most reputable websites I read recommend no more than 2,000 IU / day. I can't post full links at this time (this website won't allow me), but if youy go to ods --dot-- od --dot-- nih --dot-- gov or newsnetwork --dot-- mayoclinic --dot-- org and search on vitamin D, you can read for yourself. That high of a dose can cause side effects like nausea.
