While there is no specific dosage level at which "magic" happens, based on the most recent research by GrassrootsHealth—an organization that has greatly contributed to the current knowledge on vitamin D through their D* Action Study—it appears as though most adults need about 8,000 IU's of vitamin D a day. This is significantly higher than previously recommended. For children, many experts agree they need about 35 IU's of vitamin D per pound of body weight.
