Puritan'S Pride Vitamin D 1000 100Softgels

Description:

Puritan's Pride Vitamin D 1000 100 softgels is a dietary supplement formulated to support bone, teeth, and immune health by providing a precise daily dose of vitamin d. Each softgel delivers 1000 iu (25 mcg) of vitamin d3 (cholecalciferol), the biologically active form that the body naturally produces in response to sunlight. This supplement is especially useful for individuals with limited sun exposure, darker skin tones, older adults, or those whose diets are low in vitamin d-rich foods. The easy-to-swallow softgel format enhances absorption and convenience for daily use. It is designed for adult use as part of a balanced lifestyle to help maintain optimal vitamin d status and overall well-being.

Indications:

• Supports the prevention and management of vitamin d deficiency or insufficiency in adults.
• Helps maintain healthy bones and teeth by supporting calcium and phosphorus absorption.
• Supports a healthy immune system function and natural defenses.
• Assists in maintaining normal muscle function and strength.
• Supports bone density in older adults and postmenopausal women when combined with adequate calcium intake.
• Beneficial for individuals with limited sun exposure, indoor lifestyles, or use of sunscreen.
• May support mood and general well-being in individuals with low vitamin d levels.
