Product Description: Supplement Basic Health Boosts Immunity Boosts Bone Health Gluten Free Supports healthy bones and muscles, cardiovascular function, and immune function. Vitamin D plays an important role starting in fetal development and continuing throughout life. Unlike many vitamin D supplements, Thorne's does not contain lactose or preservatives (such as BHA, BHT, or sodium benzoate). Vitamin D protects many important functions in the body. In addition to supporting healthy bones and muscles, it also supports cardiovascular health and immune function. While sunlight can provide natural vitamin D, many people of all ages, especially older adults, do not get enough vitamin D from direct sunlight and their diet. Vitamin D supplements can be a great help in this regard. However, the powders used in many premixed vitamin D dilutions often contain preservatives such as BHT, BHA, sodium benzoate, and sorbic acid, as well as potentially harmful ingredients such as lactose. Thorne's Vitamin D is formulated to be safe for those with ingredient sensitivities. The current US recommended daily intake of 800 IU of vitamin D is based on the minimum amount needed to prevent bone disease. However, this guideline is being considered for upward revision, especially in light of new research on immune function. According to this research, serum vitamin D should be in the range of 32–80 ng/mL of 25-hydroxyvitamin D. The amount of vitamin D needed to achieve minimum vitamin D sufficiency is generally accepted as 32 ng/mL of 25-hydroxyvitamin D, and varies from person to person depending on many factors. Therefore, vitamin D supplementation requirements should be individualized. D-1,000 or D-5,000 may be ideal for maintaining optimal levels of vitamin D in healthy individuals.
