Product Review

The importance of healthy vitamin D levels to overall wellness has been well documented, but much of the US population is still vitamin D deficient. Vegans and vegetarians are at an even higher risk for deficiency since many dietary sources of vitamin D and supplements come from animals.

In fact, most mass-marketed vitamin D supplements are derived from bodily fluids secreted through the sebaceous glands of sheep. Smarter Nutrition Vitamin D3 doesn't contain hidden byproducts; it's sustainably sourced from nutrition-packed plants called lichens. Lichens produce a potent, clean vitamin D3 that's naturally free from contaminants.

But that's only part of what makes our vitamin D3 smarter.

Smarter Nutrition Vitamin D3 is co-formulated with a premium vitamin K2 complex. Why? Because recent studies show that taking vitamin D on its own could actually be harmful.

Vitamin D3 has many important functions, but perhaps the most vital is calcium absorption. Once it's absorbed, however, the calcium must be utilized correctly or it can build up in the wrong places, like veins and arteries, and cause disease.

That's where our smarter formulation with vitamin K2 complex enters the 1-2-3 equation.v

Smarter Nutrition Vitamin D3 also includes coconut oil with medium chain triglycerides (MCTs) that provide quick energy for the body and enable fast absorption of fat-soluble vitamin D3.

Formulated by the top nutrition experts in the industry (25+ years formulating and manufacturing), Smarter Nutrition Vitamin D3 is encapsulated in premium vegetarian softgels made from tapioca, a smarter alternative to animal-derived products and leaky capsules.
