> The D3 produced in your body because of sun exposure doesn't have to go through the liver.
Most people don’t have access to that much sunlight, whether it’s because they have to spend most of the day working indoors, or, like me, they live in a polar region where you literally can’t get sun most of the year.
While it may be better for your liver not to have more to process, I highly doubt taking vitamin supplements is worse than living with a deficiency.
Also, in polar cultures, eating large amounts of vitamin D rich foods is exactly what people have been doing for thousands of years, without it causing health problems. And I can tell you from experience, that failing to get that vitamin D WILL cause health problems.
