By the way, I certainly hope that you are aware that there is a maximum safe dosage of vitamin D:

Children age 9 years and older, adults, and pregnant and breast-feeding women who take more than 4,000 IU a day of vitamin D might experience

Nausea Vomiting Poor appetite Constipation Weakness Weight loss Confusion Disorientation Heart rhythm problems Kidney damage

Recommending 3900 IU for a 195 lb man is alarmingly close to the level that can cause kidney damage and heart issues. If your model spits out 1,000,000 for a 50,000 lb woman, it probably will go over 4,000 given the right parameters.
