Healthy Origins Vitamin D3 (Lanolin) 5,000 IU Softgel - Bone Health and Immune Support Supplement - Easily Absorbable Vitamin D Supplements - Gluten-Free Vitamin D3 Supplement - 360 Softgels

Truly soy-free supplements are hard to find, but this is a soy-free Vitamin D3; I have a soy allergy & this is one of the best D3 supplements I've been able to find & I've been using it for several years with great results. The price is very reasonable & I like the quality. I can really feel the difference in my energy levels when I take D3 and when I don't.Keep in mind a few caveats when supplementing with Vitamin D3:1. ALWAYS keep track of your D3 levels via BLOODWORK. You MUST make sure you don't overdose on this vitamin (it actually acts like a HORMONE). Educate yourself on proper levels for optimal health BEFORE beginning supplementation, as this is a powerful vitamin with many cascading effects (it can affect blood sugar response, mood, calcium levels, bone deposition/density, skin health, and much more). Bloodwork can also let you know if your levels are too high or too low, signalling that you need to increase or decrease your intake of D3. This can be done conventionally at a conventional lab (via phlebotomist) or at home by mail ("blood spot" tests). I try to test mine about every 6 months.2. It is advisable to concurrently supplement with Vitamin K2 to prevent over-calcification (this can be an issue for tendons AND arteries). Research this thoroughly!I've had great results with Healthy Origins products and have recommended this D3 to friends and family for many years; it's a foundational supplement for me & I highly recommend it!

I bought this brand because of the good reviews and have been very pleased with them. They're easy to swallow, have no flavor, and keep my Vitamin D levels where they should be.

I’ve been taking 5000 IU of Vit D 3 for years but my levels never went higher than 39. My goal is 60. I added Healthy Origins Vit K (MK7) to my regime and within a year, my levels were up to 49!! My doctor said to always take D along with K. The D is absorbed better when K is added, plus it keeps the arteries healthy.

Take for immune system support. Prompt delivery. Good price

Have been buying this product for 4 yrs.

Good size and easy to swallow

Update: When I was put on Vit D by my doctor, my level was 15.6 ng/ml (normal is at least 30). My levels currently run in the 40s. This isn't my only source of Vit D, but it's the main source. These DEFINITELY do their job, and are absolutely worth the pittance they cost. And as far as softgels go, these are good. Some sticking together but they're easy to separate. I'm definitely going to buy these again!--------------------------Original review: I haven't had a levels check since I switched to these, so this initial review is a cautious 4.I'm not a huge fan of softgels, but I couldn't pass up the price for nearly 1 year of vitamins.As expected, I Have to shake the bottle a bit before opening to loosen the gels. They don't have a noticeable taste.I'll be getting levels done in October or December so I'll update with how it's working for me.

The pills are a liquid gel type pill and are durable enough to put up with the humidity of a bathroom closet and the heat of my gear bag in the car day in and day out. Though I did recently throw the silica packs from a few other supplements I recently finished off into the bottle. I dosed myself 1 pill a day over the winter and have backed it off to every other day for the summer but am contemplating just going 1 a day year round anyway because of how little outside time I get even on my day off.I take this as part of an attempt at healthier living and as I work in a windowless world 12+ hours a day and often only have 1 day off per week I figured it would be helpful to get more vitamin D in my life. I started taking this over the winter and I have to say the health benefits appear to be there. I usually get at least 1 cold a year and a couple of decent sinus infections this year has seen very little in that realm no cold to speak of and the 2 sinus infections I did get were weak and not as long lived as usual. I cannot attribute this directly to my D3 supplementation but it's my observation and belief as that's about all I had changed until spring when I started supplements to improve my sleep.
