Is 55µg of vitamin D safe to take every day?
Yes. Adults should not take more than 100µg (4,000IU) of vitamin D a day from all sources, including food and other supplements. At 55碌g per capsule, this product is well within that limit when taken as directed.
Is this product suitable for vegetarians?
Yes. The capsule shell is made from vegetable-derived hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose, and the product is vegetarian, kosher and gluten-free.
Why might someone choose a 55µg vitamin D3 capsule rather than a lower-strength option?
A single 55µg capsule provides a higher daily amount of vitamin D than many standard supplements, while remaining below the adult upper limit of 100µg (4,000IU) a day.
