though the bottle claims 5,000 IU per dropperful, the average dropper yield was just 24 drops and 4 drops is 400 IU, so the average full dropper therefore contained 2,400 IU--roughly half of the label claim. I saw the greatest impact on performance once I crossed the 50 ng/ml barrier and reached 55 ng/ml, after which the e ects plateaued. The performance enhancement of vitamin D is well documented, at least as a result of using UV lights: In 1944, German investigators irradiated 32 medical students, twice a week for 6 wk, nding irradiated students showed a 13% improvement in performance on a bike ergometer, whereas performance of the control students was unchanged. In 1945, Allen and Curaton measured cardiovascular tness and muscular endurance for 10 wk in 11 irradiated male Illinois college students, comparing them with 10 matched unirradiated controls, both groups undergoing similar physical training. The treatment group achieved a 19
