NOW Supplements, Vitamin D-3 5,000 IU, High Potency, Structural Support*, 120 Softgels

Great vitamin.

And I think this means supplementing with vitamin D works. Ive used other brands that probably helped. The only thing I dont like about this product is that you have to take 1 pill every 2 days. I find that annoying since its easier to keep track of taking 1 pill a day. Next time I wont buy the 5,000 IU. Will stick to lower dosages that can be taken daily. While vitamin D toxicity is rare and requires much higher doses than 5,000 IU (I think it happens from the 40,000 IU!), but it could cause serious side effects if youre unlucky.

I have finally found the perfect Vitamin D supplement that works for me!! I love them!!

Easy to take Very small size They don’t taste bad like some vitamins

Easy to swallow, no flavor. Timely delivery

After delivering the news that I was vitamin D deficient (which everyone basically is), my doctor instructed me to start taking 5000 IUs daily. I thought this seemed a bit high, but actually not knowing what an IU was I went with it. After scouring grocery stores, pharmacies, etc, I just couldnt find this dose anywhere. Long story, short - I jumped on Amazon, had the item located in seconds and paid a great price for hundreds of these things! I guess only time will tell, along with more blood work, whether Now Foods vitamin D is up to snuff. Until that time, I will definitely continue to use this brand through Amazon.

Easy to swallow and I have a hard time swallowing pills or tablets. Will definitely buy again.

Why anyone would package a health supplement in soybean oil is beyond me. These are in olive oil so you get the D3 without the inflammatory soy.

I have type 1 diabetes and celiac disease, so my body does not absorb or produce vitamin D very well. I can spend all the time in the world outside, and still be deficient. My doctor recommended that I start taking 5000 IU of vitamin D3 every day, and this is the brand Ive used since day one. Its very cost effective and potent. I have seen a drastic increase in my levels.
