I had been supplementing with 2K IU's for almost six months, plus I'm an outdoor person, and my level in early January was ... 14 (!). Now I'm up to 4K IU's daily but not really wanting to do the blood test again. Maybe I'll try it again in July or August, after lots of outdoor/sun exposure.
So far, most of the evidence on this is not able to differentiate which came first - the chicken (low D levels) or the egg (condition CAUSING low D levels rather than being cause BY low D levels). While it's pretty well-confirmed that low levels are not good - it's much murkier regarding what to do about low levels. While it seems intuitive that supplementing to raise levels must have some benefit, we don't really know that yet. It may (surprise, surprise) be much more complex than that.
