NOW Vitamin D-3 softgels supply this key vitamin in a highly-absorbable liquid softgel form. Vitamin D is normally obtained from the diet or produced by the skin from the ultraviolet energy of the sun. However, it is not abundant in food. As more people avoid sun exposure, Vitamin D supplementation becomes even more necessary to ensure that your body receives an adequate supply.
Suggested Use
Take 1 softgel every 3 days with a fat-containing meal, or as directed by your healthcare practitioner.
Other Ingredients
Softgel capsule (gelatin, water, glycerin) and organic extra virgin olive oil.
Not manufactured with yeast, wheat, gluten, soy, milk, egg, fish, or shellfish ingredients. Produced in a GMP facility that processes other ingredients containing these allergens.

I needed this. This is a must if you work the night shift. You never see the sun so your body isn’t naturally making enough of this stuff. Definitely felt better a few days after taking.

I’m always low in vitamin D and need the extra boost. I bought these a couple times now and will continue to do so. I’m taking 10000 IU right now but I might switch to 5000 which they also have. It’s a gel pill and very easy to swallow. I will definitely purchase again.

More energy, better appetite, better mood ever in less than two weeks since I started using it. Thanks.

It’s just a bottle of Vit D. Not much to say about it. The softgels are small, and easy to take, at a great price. I would purchase from NOW brands again. I don’t have a lot of money, so low cost, is something I am always looking for. I can’t say it has changed my life, but my vitamin D levels are now up. I have heard vitamin D3 is better than the prescription vitamin D2. Great product that I will continue to read.

My husband was D-3 deficient for years. The doctor told him to take 1,000 IU per day at any time, and his numbers never improved after years of trying. A nurse friend suggested taking this easy 10,000 IU pill every MORNING with milk or yogurt or other dairy product, and in his very next blood test, after only a month of taking this pill, hi vitamin D numbers were in the normal range. I strongly recommend this regimen to people with D-3 deficiency. It’s important to take it in the morning, and with some kind of dairy product.

I believe this product has worked well as I have avoided any major illnesses while taking it, but correlation is not causation, as I have also taken massive Vitamin C and taking other precautions that limit the chance of major illness. And ultimately, this product will not save us from stupidity, which seems to be the most prevalent cause of death these days. While I think this is a good D3 source, I also hedged my bets by buying from a second source a similar product, which greatly reduces the chance I am not getting real D3. It is sort of like supporting both sides so you cannot lose.
I do believe I have benefitted from taking 10,000 IU daily of lanolin based D3 so I recommend this product, but without a highly accurate mass-spectrometer I cannot say for certain this is D3.I have to trust that the manufacturer has not taken short cuts, which is why I hedge my bets. But then again, I also supported Democrats and Republicans in every cycle, so I may not be a good example as apparently that makes me an extreme outlier when straight tickets seems to be the thing. Maybe that is why I am happy and healthy in 2020 and maybe the vitamins have nothing to do with it at all. Who knows these things.

Amazon Customer –
Not rating this product by stars. Out of an abundance of caution, returning the product because it appeared to be tampered with. After removing the outer plastic wrap and taking off the cap, it looked like someone stuck their finger thru the paper cover at the top. This is not a negative review of the product, but just for informational purposes. “Forced to add a star rating to submit review”

My doctor is very pleased! By taking 1 Vitamin D3 10,000 every other day, within six weeks my vitamin D level has already gone from 38 to 54! We’re looking forward to seeing what the next test results will show after continuing this same dosage for another 6 weeks!
UPDATE: My doctor has changed the dosage from taking 1 pearl every other day to every 3 days. Depending on lab results later on, next step might be taking one a week for a while to maintain healthy levels.
ALSO: I’m feeling physically feeling stronger, experiencing less hair loss and my fingernails are much stronger, not breaking or chipping anymore. What a relief!!

There is noticeable difference in how I feel after taking these for awhile. Combined with the Now magnesium citrate was the perfect combo
