About NOW Foods – Vitamin D-3, 5000 IU – 30 softgels
NOW Foods Vitamin D-3 5000 IU delivers a high-potency dose of cholecalciferol — the form of vitamin D that is identical to what the body naturally produces upon sun exposure. Each softgel provides 125 mcg (5,000 IU) of Vitamin D3 sourced from lanolin, suspended in a blend of extra virgin olive oil and safflower oil for optimal absorption alongside a fat-containing meal.
Vitamin D contributes to the normal function of the immune system, the maintenance of normal bones and teeth, normal muscle function, and the normal absorption and utilisation of calcium and phosphorus. It also contributes to normal blood calcium levels and plays a role in the process of cell division.
Produced by NOW Foods in a GMP-certified facility, this softgel formula uses BSE-free bovine gelatin and is free from gluten and lactose, making it suitable for a wide range of dietary needs. With 30 softgels per pack and a recommended intake of one softgel every three days, each pack provides a three-month supply.
