Vitamin D deficiency is a silent widespread issue for a lot of people. Had a battle with it a few years ago. Was tired no matter how much sleep I got, had negative motivation to do anything. Libido all but disappeared, and finally sought a doctor visit when I started have suicidal thoughts.
Turns out I just needed more sunshine and 50kiU once a week for a month.
Vitamin D toxicity is also a big problem, and doctors have been overprescribing supplementary vitamin D for years. Feels almost like a joke, you’re damned if you do, damned if you don’t.

I know vitamins are typically measured (at least here in the US) in International Units (IU), but I’ve never heard of “kiU”.
What’s that short for?
Looks like kilo-International Unit
Correct. 50,000 (imperial) iU. I was super deficient.
