There are so many vitamin D supplements out there. Here are a few of my favourites!
Vegan Vitamin D: made from algae
AOR liquid D3
Garden of Life Vitamin D
Non-vegan Vitamin D: most people don’t know, vitamin D is made from lanolin (sheep’s wool)
Cytomatrix D3
Emulsi D3 +K2
I always recommend liquid vitamin D for a few reasons. It is much easier to take, especially if you are taking more than 1000IUs daily and it is usually emulsified in a liquid fat (MCT oil commonly) which means it absorbs much better than the capsules (which are not stored in a fat). Vitamin D is a fat soluble vitamin meaning it needs some fat in order to be properly absorbed into the body.
How much vitamin D should you take?
This will depend on where you live, your vitamin D status (can be checked through a blood test) and what your doctor recommends.
