Vitamin D3 supplements are oddly expensive in /bangkok in the half dozen pharmacies I've looked at. - I normally take 2,000 IUs a day when I don't get much natural sun exposure - A pharmacist recommended taking a more affordable version of 5,000 IUs 3 times per week - Is it likely my body can absorb a comparable amount of vitamin D3 at a higher dose and lower frequency because it is fat soluble and lasts in the body longer or is this not accurate?

I asked my doctor if one of these is better and he said the same as your pharmacist and that there is likely little difference between the 2 approaches. He said D3 is "slow" but I didn't ask for specifics
