How Natural D-3 2000 IU Works
Vitamin D is a fat-soluble nutrient that the body can produce when skin is exposed to ultraviolet energy from sunlight. However, seasonal changes, indoor lifestyles, protective clothing, sunscreen use, and limited dietary sources can make it difficult for some adults to maintain consistent intake. Natural D-3 2000 IU helps supplement this nutritional need with cholecalciferol, the D3 form of vitamin D.
Vitamin D supports the normal intestinal absorption and utilization of calcium and phosphorus, minerals that help maintain strong bones and teeth. It also assists normal neuromuscular activity and supports the signaling processes involved in healthy muscle performance. In addition, adequate vitamin D status helps maintain normal immune responses. The liquid softgel format combines vitamin D3 with dietary oils, supporting convenient delivery of this fat-soluble vitamin when taken with a meal.
Key Functional Ingredients Include:
- Vitamin D3 as Cholecalciferol: Supplies 50 mcg, equivalent to 2,000 IU, to promote healthy vitamin D intake, calcium absorption, skeletal strength, muscle wellness, and normal immune function.
- Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Safflower Oil: Provide an oil-based carrier appropriate for delivering vitamin D3 in a liquid softgel format.
The formula is non-GMO and is made without gluten, soy, corn, milk, or egg ingredients. Because the softgel capsule contains bovine gelatin, this product is not suitable for vegetarian or vegan diets. Natural color variation may occur.
