Frequently asked questions
What does vitamin D do?
Under the EU/UK Register of Health Claims, vitamin D contributes to the maintenance of normal bones, teeth and muscle function, to the normal function of the immune system, and to the normal absorption of calcium. Each tablet provides 4000IU (100 micrograms).
What does 4000IU and 100µg mean?
They are two ways of stating the same amount. 4000 International Units (4000IU) of vitamin D3 is equal to 100 micrograms (100µg). This is a higher-strength daily dose.
Is 4000IU a day safe?
The NHS states that taking up to 100 micrograms (4000IU) of vitamin D a day is unlikely to cause harm for most adults. Do not exceed one tablet a day, and do not combine it with other high-dose vitamin D supplements without advice from your pharmacist or GP.
When should I take vitamin D?
Vitamin D can be taken at any time of day, with or without food. Many people in the UK consider a supplement particularly in autumn and winter, when there is less sunlight.
