Description
NOW Foods Vitamin D-3 delivers 5000 IU per softgel — a high-strength dose intended for those correcting a known deficiency or maintaining levels through periods of minimal sun exposure, rather than casual daily topping-up.
Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) is the form the skin synthesises from sunlight and is more effective at raising and maintaining blood levels than D2. The softgel format includes a carrier oil, which matters because vitamin D is fat-soluble and absorbs considerably better when taken with fat.
What it supports:
- Normal immune system function
- Bone density, teeth and muscle function
- Calcium absorption and utilisation
- Mood regulation through low-light months
- 5000 IU per softgel — high-strength for correcting low status
- From NOW Foods, one of the most established US supplement manufacturers
Take 1 softgel daily with a meal containing fat. If supplementing at this strength long-term, periodic vitamin D blood testing is sensible — speak to your GP.
