A specialist ordered 50,000 units of Vitamin D once a week I wonder why?

Hi Mimi,
Thank you for your question. Vitamin D is needed to help the body absorb calcium. If you're taking a calcium supplement, but your body doesn't have enough vitamin D, then the calcium won't help you at all. I hope this answers your question. If you'd like to read more about vitamin D, you can do so here.
Best of luck,
Casey
