Adequate vitamin D intake is essential for optimal health, but getting enough vitamin D from your diet or through sun exposure is difficult for many people. Additionally, our ability to produce vitamin D diminishes with age. According to the National Institutes of Health, most people in the United States consume less than recommended amounts of vitamin D. Get the sunshine vitamin in a softgel with Swanson Vitamin D3—our most biologically active form of D3. Our easy-to-swallow softgels provide 125 mcg (5,000 IU) per serving of fat-soluble vitamin D3 in a base of flaxseed oil for better absorbability.

Swanson D3 softgels help you meet your daily needs of this multitasking superstar. You may know it as a bone-health vitamin, but D3 does that and so much more! Vitamin D helps build and maintain strong bones for life by increasing the body’s absorption of the minerals calcium and phosphorus. This role in mineral utilization and balance also contributes to healthy teeth (your teeth are mineralized organs) as well as heart and circulatory health (by ensuring proper distribution of those minerals between your bones and your arteries).

Your muscles impact your skeletal health as well, as they allow for the activity and metabolism that trigger bone growth. Here again is vitamin D: higher levels of this important vitamin correlate to increased muscle protein synthesis, exercise capacity and recovery.

Your body also uses vitamin D to support robust immune system function by regulating the activity of immune cells and encouraging a healthy microbiome. Your microbiome matters because of both digestive and immune health as emerging research indicates a connection between higher vitamin D levels and lower incidence of particular digestive disturbances, and the fact that about 70% of your immune cells live in your gut.

Vitamin D comes into play again with your mental wellbeing through both its role in microbiome health via the gut-brain axis, and regulation of the hormones serotonin and melatonin. It further contributes to total-body health through its support of a healthy metabolism. Along with diet and exercise, vitamin D promotes insulin sensitivity for healthy blood sugar levels.

Bone strength is important for maintaining an active lifestyle which is central to sustained weight management. Your bones need certain vitamins and minerals to maintain their strength and integrity.
