1000iu vitamin D3 per drop to support a healthy immune system as well as healthy bones, muscles and teeth.

Vitamin D3 Drops is designed to offer an easy way to supplement with vitamin D, which is important for our bones, muscles and teeth as well as our immune system. Our formula is provided in a base of easy-to-absorb MCT (medium chain triglycerides) oil, with a natural orange flavour, and nothing else added. Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin, so providing it in a triglyceride (fat) base helps you to absorb it.

What does vitamin D3 do?
Vitamin D3 plays an important role in supporting a healthy, balanced immune system. Low vitamin D levels, which are common amongst the UK population, particularly during winter, may compromise our immune response and leave us at risk of infection. Because it helps to balance the immune system, it's important for those with over-active immune systems too.

It is also needed for bone health - without it, our bodies cannot absorb calcium which is critical for strong bones and is needed for muscle function. This is important in older people who may be more at risk of falling, a risk factor for fractures. It is also very important for the normal growth & development of bones in children.

Who is it suitable for?
This formula is suitable for adults and children over the age of 1 who want to ensure adequate intake of vitamin D3 but is particularly suited to those more at risk of deficiency including the those over 65 years of age, people with darker skin who naturally make less vitamin D in response to sunlight, and children under 5 years of age. The bone support provided by adequate vitamin D levels is particuarly important for children whose bones are developing and those over 65 years old for whom falling is a risk factor for bone fractures.

Our vitamin D3 is derived from lanolin (sheep wool). It is therefore suitable for vegetarians but not vegans
