Description
BetterYou Vitamin D High Strength Daily Oral Spray is a food supplement that delivers 75ug (3,000 IU) of vitamin D3 in a single daily spray, rather than a tablet or capsule. Vitamin D contributes to normal bone and muscle function and supports a healthy immune system. Because the full daily dose comes from one spray absorbed in the mouth, it offers a simple option for anyone who prefers not to take tablets.
Key Features
- High-strength vitamin D3: Provides 75ug (3,000 IU) of vitamin D3, 1500% of the Nutrient Reference Value, from a single daily spray.
- One spray a day: The full daily dose comes from just one spray, sprayed into the mouth rather than swallowed as a tablet.
- Sugar-free and free from common allergens: Sugar-free, and free from dairy, gluten, wheat and soy.
- Vegetarian formulation: The vitamin D3 is derived from lanolin (sheep's wool), making it suitable for vegetarians, though not for vegans.
- Natural peppermint flavour: Flavoured with natural peppermint oil, with no artificial colours or flavours.
How much vitamin D do I need each day?
NHS guidance recommends that most adults and children over 1 take about 10 micrograms of vitamin D a day, particularly during autumn and winter. This spray provides a higher-strength 75-microgram (3,000 IU) daily dose. If you're unsure how much vitamin D you need, speak to a GP or pharmacist.
Is there a maximum safe amount of vitamin D?
Yes. NHS guidance advises against taking more than 100 micrograms (4,000 IU) of vitamin D a day from all sources, as this could be harmful. This spray provides 75ug per daily dose, within that limit.
Is this spray suitable for vegans?
No. The vitamin D3 in this spray is derived from lanolin, which comes from sheep's wool, so it's suitable for vegetarians but not vegans.
How does this compare to BetterYou's other vitamin D sprays?
This spray provides 3,000 IU (75ug) of vitamin D3 per daily dose, which BetterYou describes as ""high strength."" BetterYou also sells lower-strength (1,000 IU) and higher-strength (4,000 IU) versions; the 4,000 IU option matches the maximum amount NHS guidance advises against exceeding in a single day.
