Q: I have some concerns about its high potency. I saw that some sites don’t recommend anything higher than 1000 IU. I am confused. Can you please share your reasons/knowledge for the 5000 IU? "
A: We chose to include 5,000iu in this formula for a couple of reasons: 
1.) Product safety is our chief concern. The “dangerous levels” of D3 are most common when individuals supplement several times our recommended daily dose. 
2) After safety and effectiveness are confirmed, we make sure that our customers approve of the formula. We found that our Zhou customers responded most favorably to a 5000iu offering, especially when paired with a logical synergistic dose of K2. Most members of the Zhou team take this daily, and we constantly get feedback from our customers about how much this product has improved their healthy lifestyle.
