Vitamin D-3 1000 IU 360sg by Now Foods – Bone Support Vitamin D Softgels
Vitamin D-3 1000 IU softgels by Now Foods provide vitamin D in a liquid softgel, with 360 softgels in this bottle. Each softgel supplies 25 mcg (1,000 IU) of vitamin D3 from lanolin, making this a focused vitamin D option rather than a combined calcium or vitamin K formula.
Vitamin D intake comes from foods, fortified products, and supplements, while skin can also produce it in response to sunlight. These sources vary from person to person. This single-nutrient formula lets adults add a defined amount of vitamin D without adding several other vitamins or minerals to an existing routine.
Key Vitamin D-3 1000 IU 360sg Benefits
- Supports calcium absorption in the intestine, helping the body make use of calcium supplied by food.
- Helps maintain normal bone mineralization and healthy teeth through vitamin D’s role in mineral balance.
- Contributes to normal muscle function, complementing its nutritional role in the maintenance of the skeleton.
- Supports normal immune function through vitamin D’s involvement in the activity and communication of immune cells.
How Vitamin D-3 1000 IU 360sg Works
After absorption, vitamin D3 undergoes processing in the liver and primarily the kidneys to become its active form. That active form helps intestinal cells regulate the movement of calcium into the body. Calcium and phosphate then contribute to the mineral structure that gives bones and teeth their strength. Vitamin D supplies a regulatory nutrient; it does not supply calcium itself.
Vitamin D is fat soluble, so taking this softgel with a meal fits its absorption needs as well as the manufacturer’s directions. The formula includes olive oil and safflower oil, and its capsule contains bovine gelatin. Those details matter when comparing an oil-based softgel with a vegetarian capsule or a liquid-drop supplement.
Key Functional Ingredients Include:
- Vitamin D (as D₃ Cholecalciferol) (from Lanolin): Cholecalciferol supplies the D3 form of vitamin D. Its active form helps intestinal cells absorb dietary calcium, supporting the mineral balance needed for normal bones and teeth. This connects the nutrient’s role in calcium handling with the formula’s bone-support purpose without adding calcium to the softgel.
Vitamin D-3 1000 IU 360sg Is Formulated For
- Adults seeking a standalone, 1,000 IU vitamin D3 softgel.
- Adults who prefer an oil-based formula taken with a meal.
- People whose dietary preferences allow lanolin-derived vitamin D and bovine gelatin.

Frequently Asked Questions About Vitamin D-3 1000 IU 360sg
What are the benefits of Vitamin D-3 1000 IU 360sg?
This Now Foods formula supplies 25 mcg (1,000 IU) of vitamin D3 per softgel to support calcium absorption, normal bones and teeth, muscle function, and immune function. Its main nutritional role in bone support is helping the body use calcium from the diet. It does not contain supplemental calcium or vitamin K. The 360-softgel bottle is an option for adults who want a standalone vitamin D product rather than a broader combination formula.
Who should take Vitamin D-3 1000 IU 360sg?
This product is labeled for adults only and suits people seeking a daily 1,000 IU vitamin D3 softgel. It contains lanolin-derived vitamin D and a bovine-gelatin capsule, so it is not a vegan option. Consider vitamin D already present in multivitamins, fortified foods, and other supplements when deciding whether to add it. Consult physician if pregnant/nursing, taking medication, or have a medical condition. The label directs adults to take one softgel daily with a meal.
Are there any side effects of taking Vitamin D-3 1000 IU 360sg?
For adults only. Consult physician if pregnant/nursing, taking medication, or have a medical condition. Keep out of reach of children. Not manufactured with yeast, wheat, gluten, soy, corn, milk, egg, fish, shellfish or sesame ingredients. Produced in a GMP facility that processes other ingredients containing these allergens. Excess vitamin D can cause high blood calcium, nausea, weakness, thirst, or kidney problems. Thiazide diuretics can increase calcium-related risks; orlistat can reduce absorption; steroids can lower vitamin D levels. High-dose vitamin D can affect certain statins. Review all medicines and vitamin D sources with your clinician.
How does Vitamin D-3 1000 IU 360sg support overall health?
Vitamin D3 is converted in the body into an active form that helps regulate calcium absorption and mineral balance. Those functions connect everyday nutrition with the maintenance of normal bones and teeth. Vitamin D also participates in normal muscle and immune function. This formula supplies vitamin D in an oil-based softgel, but it does not replace dietary calcium, balanced meals, or individualized advice about vitamin D intake. Take it with a meal as directed on the label.
