As the average UK adult has a 16 ng 40nmol/l difference between summer and winter vitamin D levels it is far better for the average UK adult to be nearer 60ng than nearer 40 as a few days without supplements will leave the person at 40 vulnerable whereas the at 60ng you have a store of vitamin D that will last some time (it depletes by 50% every 3 weeks) to keep you above 40ng. So those at 60ng have a greater reserve to act as a safety zone.

I think this is the paper they are talking about but I haven't read it yet.
I use IHERB NOW foods 5000iu/d (http://www.iherb.com/Now-Foods-Vitamin-D-3-Highest-Potency-5-000-IU-120-Softgels/10421?at=0) code WAB666 for $5 discount. It usually takes 3 months at 5000iu/d to reach 60ng. 150nmol/l. then test and adjust amount by 1000iu/d for every 10ng you want extra/less. It's quicker & easier to lose excess D3 than make up a shortfall as your body uses D3 at 5000iu/d and reserves deplete by 17% each week.
