Product Description: Basic Health Immune Support Bone Health Gluten Free Supplement Helps support healthy bones and muscles, cardiovascular function, and immune function. Vitamin D plays an important role throughout life, starting with fetal development. Unlike many vitamin D supplements, Thorne does not contain lactose or preservatives (such as BHA, BHT, or sodium benzoate). Vitamin D protects several key functions in the body. In addition to supporting healthy bones and muscles, it also helps support cardiovascular health and immune function. Although direct sunlight provides natural vitamin D, many people of all ages, especially older adults, do not get enough vitamin D from sunlight and diet alone. In these cases, a vitamin D supplement can be very helpful. However, many pre-mixed vitamin D powders used in diluting often contain preservatives such as BHT, BHA, sodium benzoate, and sorbic acid, as well as potentially harmful ingredients such as lactose. Thorne’s vitamin D is formulated for people who are sensitive to these ingredients. In the United States, the current recommended daily intake of 800 IU of vitamin D is the minimum recommended amount for bone disease prevention. However, in light of recent research, particularly new research on immune function, this guideline is being considered for an upward revision. This research suggests that serum vitamin D levels should be in the range of 32–80 ng/mL 25-hydroxyvitamin D. The amount of vitamin D needed to achieve the minimum requirement (defined as a normal blood concentration of 32 ng/mL 25-hydroxyvitamin D) varies from person to person depending on many factors. Therefore, vitamin D supplementation needs should be individualized. D-1,000 or D-5,000 may be ideal for maintaining optimal levels of vitamin D in healthy individuals. D-10,000 is for those who need higher levels of vitamin D supplementation, and D-25,000 is for those who need high doses of vitamin D supplementation for a short period of time. How to use: Take 1 capsule daily or as directed by your healthcare professional.
