1 IU is the biological equivalent of about 0.667 mg d-alpha-tocopherol (2/3 mg exactly), or of 1 mg of dl-alpha-tocopherol acetate
Is a 1000 IU Vitamin D the same as 1000 mg of Vitamin D
There are 50 micrograms in 2000 IU of vitamin D.
400 IU of vitamin D is equivalent to 10 micrograms (mcg) or 0.01 milligrams (mg).

No. 2,000 IU is a very modest dose - which can be taken daily. However, vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin, and should not be taken in excess.
Alfacalcidol is a vitamin D analog, and its potency is generally measured in micrograms (mcg) rather than international units (IU). However, 1 mcg of vitamin D is equivalent to approximately 40 IU. Therefore, 0.25 mcg of Alfacalcidol would be roughly equivalent to 10 IU of vitamin D.
A huge number. Doses of vitamin D are usually measured in mcg (micrograms), not mg (milligrams). You would have to take eight hundred thousand 5000 IU tablets of vitamin D to be one hundred thousand MG. That's 800,000 5000 iu tablets of vitamin D = 100,000 mg. Even if you mean micrograms (mcg) it would require eight hundred (800) 5000 iu tablets of vitamin D to be 100,000 mcg. 800 5000 iu tablets of vitamin D = 100,000 mcg.
The Adequate Intake for Vitamin D is as follows:Birth to 50 years: 200 IU/day51 to 70 years: 400 IU/day71+years: 600 IU/day
400mg of vitamin D is equivalent to 10,000 IU (International Units). IU and mg are different units of measurement for vitamin D, with 1 IU equaling 0.025 mcg for vitamin D3. It's important to consider the measurement units when determining the appropriate dosage of vitamin D for supplementation.
There isn't a direct conversion between International Units (IU) and units (U) of vitamin D because they are measuring the same thing. The terms are just different ways to express the dosage of vitamin D.
