Optimal Vitamin D Drops 2000 IU - 1 fl. oz. Seeking Health

Seeking Health - Optimal Vitamin D Drops 2000 IU - 1 fl. oz. (30 mL)

Seeking Health Optimal Vitamin D Liquid provides a potent 2000 IU dose of vitamin D3 per drop, in pure olive oil base. Vitamin D is essential for the normal functioning of many important systems in the body and is needed to support a healthy immune system and long-term bone health. Many do not get sufficient vitamin D3 in their diet, and the synthetic vitamin D2 that is added to dairy products is not typically well-absorbed or included in sufficient amounts. Vitamin D3 occurs naturally in fatty fish, fish oil (especially cod liver oil), egg yolks, and beef liver. Optimal Vitamin D contains cholecalciferol derived from cholesterol in sheep’s wool, making it suitable for vegetarians.

• Cost-efficient, potent dose in each easy-to-use drop
• Simple, low-allergen potential formula
• May help support bone health as part of a healthy diet rich in calcium and other minerals
• May help support a healthy immune system

The amount of vitamin D3 that an individual needs varies due to a variety of factors. Some factors that contribute to vitamin D deficiency include spending most of the day indoors, using sunscreen, less sunny climates, or darker skin tone (melanin blocks UVB rays, which produce vitamin D in the skin).

Vitamin D deficiency symptoms and individuals needs for this nutrient vary depending on the individual, so we recommend consulting with a physician or qualified healthcare professional for testing prior to using a high-potency vitamin D supplement. The liquid format of Optimal Vitamin D makes it easy to tailor the dose to fit your specific needs, and may be easier to take than capsules or softgels for some individuals. Optimal Vitamin D is free from artificial fillers, flow agents, preservatives, or flavors.

Suitable for Vegetarians

Free of: Dairy, Egg, Fish, Shellfish, Tree Nuts, Peanuts, Wheat, Soy

Independent Certification
Good manufacturing practices (GMPs) are guidelines that provide a system of processes, procedures and documentation to assure a product has the identity, strength, composition, quality and purity that appear on its label. These GMP requirements are listed in Section 8 of NSF/ANSI 173 which is the only accredited American National Standard in the dietary supplement industry developed in accordance with the FDA's 21 CFR part 111.

NSF International's GMP Registration Program enables manufacturers to become independently registered by NSF to meet GMP requirements. The program is open not just to manufacturers of dietary supplements but also to manufacturers of ingredients and raw materials, as well as distribution, warehousing and packaging companies, who want to demonstrate their commitment to public safety.
