1 international unit is contained in 25 nanograms (1x10-9) of active vitamin D. Then 600x25x10-9=15 micrograms or 0.015 mg or 0.000015 grams. Vitamins D is expressed rather in units because we consume with food inactive vitamin D, which is activated in our body under the effec to the ultraviolet radiation of the Sun.

How many International units Equals a gram?

The conversion from International Units (IU) to grams varies depending on the substance being measured, as IU is a measure of biological activity rather than mass. For example, 1 IU of vitamin D is equivalent to 0.025 micrograms (or 0.000025 grams), while 1 IU of insulin is approximately 0.0347 milligrams (or 0.0000347 grams). Therefore, to convert IU to grams, you need to know the specific substance and its conversion factor.

How many units in 2 iu's?

The term "iu" stands for international units, which is a measurement used to quantify the potency of substances such as vitamins and hormones. The conversion of international units (IU) to units (U) can vary depending on the specific substance being measured. Therefore, to determine how many units are in 2 IU, you would need to know the specific substance's conversion factor. For example, for Vitamin D, 1 IU is equivalent to 0.025 micrograms, but this does not translate directly to units without the specific context.
