Canadians should be able to obtain effective high dose Vitamin D3 over the counter in Canada. The only dose currently available over the counter of Vitamin D3 is 1000 IU which has been proven

to be ineffective for viral respiratory infections, cancer prevention, depression and many diseases. However, increasing doses to at least 5000 IU has an abundance of evidence-based data to support its effectiveness in preventing viral infections and a multitude of diseases - the "A -to-Z" of high dose Vitamin D3. There is no safety reason for this prohibition of Vitamin D3 5000IU as an over-the-counter supplement by Health Canada. In many other countries, high dose Vitamin D3 5000IU doses and higher are widely available and very inexpensive. For now, the only way to obtain this dose is to take 5 caps of the 1000 IU ( not ideal due to the filler and additives over a prolonged period) or to have it prescribed by a doctor who is willing to a compound pharmacy which results in an escalated price and an inability to access for most Canadians. Please help me to change this dangerous prohibition of effective dose Vitamiin D3 5000 IU in Canada by signing my petition with Change .org
