Anti-aging: Vitamin D shaves three years off your biological age

Vitamin D poisoning was not fun.
-- But yes it may have shaved 3 years of my life.
For the last 10 years, I've taken 2500IU/day of Vitamin D. My last bloodwork put my D at 54ng/Ml which is slightly on the high side.
Everyone, but especially those using supplements, should be getting bloodwork done at least twice a year. Guessing which additional vitamins are needed in your diet is a great way to waste money. Bloodwork is covered by most insurance and will give you concrete numbers.
Also, I think you may have misread the title, it shaves 3 years off your biological age. I.e. biomarkers look younger than you are.
I started taking Vitamin D, because youtube-doctor Joe Rogan suggested it instead of covid vaccination.
Worked very well because no Covid.
But then I thought I had it in 2024, but it was just D overdosing, too much calcium in the blood or something.
Seems like an odd stance to take if you're purposefully taking things like vitamins to try and improve health.
But seriously, blood tests literally take ~15 minutes of my time, 2 times a year.
I Schedule online, go in for a blood draw, and get results a few hours later online. It's minimal effort (my favorite kind of effort) and lets me know which supplements are working (Vit. D for example, is working very well) and which are pointless (i.e. as I learned most iron supplements are garbage and don't get absorbed).
