Doctors from the UK have presented the symptoms associated with a possible vitamin D overdose. Among the signs are nausea and frequent urination.

Vitamin D helps regulate the amount of calcium and phosphate in the body, bringing a number of health benefits, such as maintaining healthy bones, teeth and muscles.

Most people get this important substance from exposure to direct sunlight, but some individuals take it in the form of supplements, which can pose potentially serious health risks.

The main effect of an overdose is a buildup of calcium in the blood (hypercalcemia), which causes nausea and vomiting, weakness, and frequent urination. Symptoms can progress to bone pain and kidney problems, such as kidney stones.
