Vitamin D3 5000 IU for Immune and Bone Health, Calcium Absorption, and Colon Health - Sustainable Source from Lanolin, Available in Various Strengths

I really enjoy taking this particular brand of Vitamin D. The current recommended daily allowance, according to many new studies, should be increased from the current amount. It should probably be noted that this amount of Vitamin D is, technically, above the tolerable upper limit currently assigned of 4000 IU. I'm not sure that it will really hurt you at all, but it may not be recommended in such a high dose for people who are out in the sun a lot and generate a lot of vitamin D already. If you drink tons of milk or other products that contains a lot of vitamin D, you may also have too much. I, personally, take my vitamin D at night. I'm not sure why, but I feel that it's better this way. This brand contains, according to the bottle: Vitamin D (D3) (as cholecalciferol - from Lanolin) 5000 IU 1250% Daily Value (DV), medium chain triglycerides, [gelatin, glycerin, purified water (capsule shell)]. 100% bovine gelatin, BSE-free. It is in the preferred form for use for the body, vitamin D3. I know what you're probably thinking, since these vitamin D pills contains so much more than the normal %DV that they will be huge, right? Well, they're not too large. I would say that they're very small (much smaller than fish oil or a multivitamin, for example). They're probably just slightly larger than liquid pill version of Advil, if that helps. I also think that it's important to note that bottle that it comes in is made out of glass. This may/may not work for some people. For me, it shows higher quality than the plastic bottles. I don't really like using plastic bottles. I also love having a glass bottle because they can be reused for so many different types of things. This is an A+ quality for me. To read more about vitamin D, you should go to Wikipedia or Science Daily. Just use the search boxes, and look up vitamin D. It will show you that it does a lot more than simply helping to absorb calcium. It's definitely needed (especially for someone like me who doesn't go out into the sun very often to avoid sunburn).

GOOD PRODUCT

Great vitamin d

Awesome value for what it is I would buy this again

Country Life vitamins never disappoint! My husband and I have been buying from them for a long time, and the company is also very responsive to customer concerns. I had a concern about my order, which turned out to be my own forgetfulness, but their product quality team actually investigated the product batch and safety just to make sure everything was up to their standards and mine. They were absolutely amazing. Country life: great supplements, great customer care. I’m thankful that the company I use as part of my health regimen backs up their product and customers!

As described

Cheaper than local stores, a great IU of D3 and perfect for winter time when you can’t get in the Sun a lot. Pair with zinc and you’ll keep yourself from getting sick as often

Excellent for bone strength. Good price and Bobby approved. Nice and small easy to swallow.
