VITAMIN D - 5000 IUs
Vitamin D is a fat-soluble nutrient. It is one of the 24 micronutrients critical for human survival.
Supplemental vitamin D is associated with a wide range of benefits, including increased cognition, immune health, bone health and well-being. Supplementation can also reduce the risks of cancer, heart disease, diabetes and multiple sclerosis. People deficient in vitamin D may also experience increased testosterone levels after supplementation.
Most people are not deficient in vitamin D, but they do not have an optimal level of vitamin D either. Due to the many health benefits of vitamin D, supplementation is encouraged if optimal levels are not present in the body.
Benefits include:
- May promote healthy muscle function.*
- Assists bone health.*
- Supports immune health.*
*Further research is required to support these claims.
SUGGESTED USE
As a dietary supplement take one (1) softgel once daily. For best results, take 20-30 min before a meal with 8oz. glass of water or as directed by your healthcare professional.
The recommended daily allowance for Vitamin D is currently set at 400-800IU/day, but this is too low for adults. The Upper Tolerable Intake Level in the United States and Canada is 4,000IU/day. Research suggests that the true Upper Tolerable Intake Level is 10,000IU/day. For moderate supplementation, a 1,000-2,000IU dose of vitamin D3 is sufficient to meet the needs of most of the population. This is the lowest effective dose range. Higher doses, based on body weight, are in the range of 20-80IU/kg daily.
CAUTION
Do not exceed recommended dose. Pregnant or nursing mothers, children under the age of 18, and individuals with a known medical condition should consult a physician before using this or any dietary supplement.
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN. DO NOT USE IF SAFETY SEAL IS DAMAGED OR MISSING. STORE IN A COOL, DRY PLACE.
