NOW Foods Vitamin D-3 10,000 IU, High Potency, Bone Health Support, 30 Softgels

Vitamin D3: The Sunshine Vitamin

Vitamin D is essential for maintaining good health, yet many of us fail to get enough from sunlight or diet. NOW Foods Vitamin D-3 10,000 IU provides a potent dose of the sunshine vitamin in easy-to-swallow liquid softgels. Each bottle supplies 30 servings, making it an ideal choice for those requiring extra support for bone health, immune function, and calcium absorption.* With decades of manufacturing expertise, this supplement is a reliable option for keeping your vitamin D levels optimal.

Why Choose High-Potency Vitamin D3?

Vitamin D exists in two forms: ergocalciferol (D2) from plant sources and cholecalciferol (D3) from animal sources. Research indicates that D3 is more effective at raising and maintaining blood levels of vitamin D. NOW Foods uses cholecalciferol, identical to the form produced by your skin in sunlight. This ensures efficient utilisation to support bone density, immune response, and calcium homeostasis.*

Key Benefits of Vitamin D Supplementation

• Bone Health: Vitamin D helps your body absorb calcium, vital for maintaining strong bones and teeth.*
• Immune Support: It plays a role in modulating immune function, helping your body defend against seasonal challenges.*
• Muscle Function: Adequate levels support normal muscle contraction and coordination.*
• Calcium Absorption: Without enough vitamin D, calcium absorption drops significantly, potentially affecting bone density over time.*

Who May Benefit from Higher Doses?

While a standard maintenance dose is typically 600–2,000 IU daily, some individuals may need higher amounts. Those with limited sun exposure (due to climate, indoor lifestyle, or sunscreen uses), darker skin tones, older adults, and people with certain digestive conditions may have increased requirements. The 10,000 IU strength is intended for short-term uses or under health care supervision to address deficiency or support bone health.* Always consult your doctor before starting a high-dose regimen.

Recommended Dosage and Usage

Take one soft gel capsule daily with a meal containing fat for optimum absorption. Each soft gel capsule delivers 10,000 IU (250 µg) of vitamin D3. Do not exceed the recommended dose unless advised by a health care professional. Since vitamin D is fat-soluble, taking it with food enhances bioavailability.
