Brief Summary: When people eat a meal some but not all of the calcium in that meal is absorbed that is moved into the bloodstream When the skin is exposed to sunlight during summer months Vitamin D is made there and then modified into more active forms by the liver and kidneys These more active forms of Vitamin D improve calcium absorption Many adults living in the US have little or no sun exposure and are low in Vitamin D A single dose of 100000 IU of Vitamin D3 has been used both as empiric treatment for Vitamin D deficiency as well as in controlled trials without risk of raising blood calcium to dangerous levelsThis study is to determine the serum levels of Vitamin D and 25-hydroxyvitamin D vitamin D after it has been modified by the liver that can be expected when Vitamin D3 is given as a single oral dose of 100000 IU
Detailed Description: The group receiving the supplement will be scheduled for short visits to our research center at baseline and days 1357 and then weekly for 3 weeks and then every other week for 6 visits total 14 visits in 4 months The group not receiving supplement will be scheduled for short visits at baseline and in 4 months At the beginning of the study we will measure your height weight skin color and draw blood to measure your blood levels of Vitamin D 25-hydroxyvitamin D calcium and parathyroid hormone At each visit we will draw blood to measure your blood levels of Vitamin D and 25-hydroxyvitamin D There will be fourteen blood draws for a total of 280 cc of blood drawn about 4 teaspoons drawn each time in the supplemented group There will be 2 blood draws in the group not receiving supplements for a total of 60 cc of blood drawn about 4 teaspoons drawn each time
