More compliance (6X fewer opportunities to forget)
Weekly high concentration gets D into cells much faster
True for most chemistries
High gradients overcome Vitamin D Receptor limitations
44 percent of successful RCTs in VitaminDWiki had used non-daily dosing
Note Humans and animals have evolved to go for days with many nutrients

(19) Doctors often reluctant to prescribe Vitamin D because:
Can have side affects If not adjust cofactors with high dose
Would require ignoring the position of the medical profession on supplements.
Risk being sued if exceed standard of care
Experts do not agree on how much is needed
Doctors are rarely been trained in nutrition
Medical training has an emphasis on treatment, not prevention
Doctors have tried prescribing small vitamin D doses recommended by govts., but with minimal success
Doctors often can only prescribe D2 anyway - become used to its not working
Doctors have too little time to read outside of their specialty
No profit for Big Pharma, nor hospitals, so doctors not rewarded
The Vitamin D dose needed often varies by 4X between individuals for many health problems
Doctors are told to not prescribe more than 4,000 IU – so miss out on many of the benefits
Doctors are used to monotherapy, single pill, of a single size for everyone
