Life Extension Vegan Vitamin D3

• Your Skin Makes Vitamin D3 Via Exposure to Direct Sunlight
• Plants Get Their Nourishment from the Sun as Well, which Inspired us to Create a Vitamin D3 Supplement That is of Animal Sources or Byproducts: Not in the 100% Vegan Capsule, nor in the utrient Inside
• For Vegans and Vegetarians, Getting the Right Nutrition Can Pose Unique Challenges
• So We Created a Vegan-Dly 125 mcg Vitamin D3 Formula

Your skin produces vitamin D when in direct sunlight, but you should not get your vitamin D from unprotected sun exposure or indoor tanning devices. Supplementing with vitamin D goes a long way towards inhibiting deficiency: we recommend about 125 mcg–200 mcg of vitamin D3 a day. If your multivitamin already delivers 25 mcg–75 mcg of vitamin D, Vitamin D3 125 mcg (5000 IU) is perfect for achieving optimal vitamin D levels.

Cognitive health
Vitamin D is important for maintaining cognitive health and function as you age. Healthy serum vitamin D levels have been shown to correspond with better scores on cognitive health tests and better maintenance of cognitive ability in aging individuals

Bone and immune health
Vitamin D (along with vitamin K and essential minerals) is essential for facilitating the transport of calcium into the bone matrix. This is an important step in maintaining strong, healthy bones and teeth. Vitamin D also plays a critical role in healthy immune function.

Heart health & already-healthy blood pressure support
Vitamin D helps to regulate the body’s calcium balance while facilitating calcium absorption into the bloodstream, promotes a healthy inflammatory response, and encourages healthy endothelial function.Vitamin D also helps inhibit excess renin levels. Healthy renin levels help maintain healthy blood pressure already within the normal range.

Getting enough vitamin D
This vitamin D3 supplement delivers 125 mcg of vitamin D3 as cholecalciferol per capsule. We suggest that you take a 25-hydroxy vitamin D blood test after 3 months to assess and adjust your dosage. Your optimal blood levels should be 50–80 ng/ml year-round.

• The sunshine vitamin - Your skin makes vitamin D when it’s exposed to sunlight, but that shouldn’t be your only source. We suggest at least 125 mcg (5000 IU) of vitamin D3 per day. This makes our Vegan Vitamin D3 the perfect vitamin D3 supplement, especially if you’re following a vegan or vegetarian diet: there are no animal byproducts in this formula.

• Bone & brain health - Vitamin D helps your body get calcium into your bone matrix, the lattice-like structure that gives your bones their strength and rigidity. Vitamin D is good for your brain, too: healthy levels of vitamin D3 in your blood have been shown to correspond to healthy cognitive health scores as you age.

• Immune support - Vitamin D3 plays a critical role in immune function. It also promotes endothelial health and can help maintain already-healthy blood pressure levels, which makes getting enough daily vitamin D3 a really, really good idea.

• Ingredients matter - Sourced using only the finest raw ingredients with the quality and purity your body deserves. The majority of our products are non-GMO, gluten-free and manufactured in the USA—and a Certificate of Analysis is available for every product we produce.

• Live your healthiest life – We believe the answers to a healthier life are in reach, and that scientific research is the key to getting there. That’s why so many of our formulas feature specific ingredients and amounts based on scientific studies.
