Vitamin D3 supplementation should be adjusted on the basis of body weight.
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/22262154
Not shown in this abstract, but one of the authors (Dr. Heaney) said the formula to obtain 25(OH)D levels of >40 ng/ml is 70-80IU/kg/day. (35IU/pound/day). So, a 200 lb. person should take 7000IU/day, as a simple example.
