One sardine a day. You could live in a cave it has so much D! Eat the bone for calcium. I suspect pills are no good. And RDA probably exeeds actual need on cavemane diet, as grains and dairy deplete calcium.
where did you get the info that grains and dairy products depletes calcium?

They cause the blood to become more acidic, and the body leaches calcium from its own bones to buffer the blood pH.
since years we were told to drink milk and cottage cheese to get more calcium so it's hard to believe adding calcium to your body depletes it...
An adequate vitamin D intake is associated with a lower risk of osteoporotic hip fractures in postmenopausal women. Neither milk nor a high-calcium diet appears to reduce risk.
