The Recommended Dietary Allowance for calcium in adults is:

• Males and Females between 19 to 50 years: 1000 mg daily*
• Males 51 to 70 years: 1000 mg daily*
• Females 51 to 70 years: 1200 mg daily*
• Males and Females over 71 years: 1200 mg daily*

The Recommended Dietary Allowance for Vitamin D is:

• Newborn to 12 months: 400 IU daily
• 1 - 70 years of age: 600 IU daily
• Over 70 years of age: 800 IU daily

Tolerable Upper Intake Levels of Vitamin D are:

• Over 9 years of age: 4000 IU daily

Note: Do not take higher doses of vitamin D than recommended unless instructed to by your healthcare provider.

Unlike calcium, vitamin D does not need to be taken several times a day. Since vitamin D is stored in fat tissue, your body will use what you have in storage as needed.
