Hi,
I am going to buy the powder form of Royal Jelly from the natural fertility store, however, I have a question. I see it says not to mix with hot water, lukewarm is okay. What about cold water? Like ice cold -can I add that to cold orange juice? Will this work?
Also, a question on Vitamin D, I am taking the Fertilica's Women's Daily 1 tablet per day. I just bought Vitamin D extra , and each cap has 400 iu. Is it considered safe to take 1,000 iu per day?
Can anyone please let me know, thanks!!

Hi noorjahan,
I am not familiar with that Royal Jelly product, so I am not sure. My guess would be that the luke warm water helps it to dissolve, but heat would damage its nutritional value.
The RDA of Vit. D is 400IU. You should not need to supplement more as you get some Vit. D in enriched foods as well as naturally in other foods. You also get vit. D through exposure to sunlight.
Please use your best judgement.

From the Mayo Clinic: http://www.mayoclinic.com/health/vitamin-d-toxicity/AN02008Vitamin D is an essential nutrient. The Institute of Medicine recommends that children and adults up to age 50 get 200 international units (IU) of vitamin D daily. The recommendation for adults over age 50 is 400 to 600 IU daily. However, many health experts consider these recommendations to be too low. The American Academy of Pediatrics, for instance, now recommends that children and adolescents get 400 IU of vitamin D daily. Many experts now "unofficially" recommend that adults get as much as 1,000 to 2,000 IU of vitamin D daily. In addition, it's likely that the vitamin D guidelines will be revised upward.
Supplements can be a reasonable way to meet recommended levels — as long as you pay attention to how much you take. And be sure to tell your doctor about any supplements you take.
Please use your best judgement.

Hi Dalene,
Thanks for your reply.
That Royal Jelly is not powder form (I misunderstood it).

Oh, did you mean the liquid, that is fine to mix with juice and smoothies, but may freeze up.
