Solaray Vitamin D3 400 IU softgels (pearls) are one of the most effective ways to supplement your daily vitamin D levels. Vitamin D3 — also known as cholecalciferol — is the most active form, better absorbed by the body, and superior to vitamin D2. With 120 pearls per container, you have a 4-month supply to take care of your bones, strengthen your defenses, and support your emotional well-being all year round.

Why do you need vitamin D after age 40?

Vitamin D deficiency is one of the most widespread in Spain and throughout Europe, even in sunny regions like Andalusia. This is because vitamin D synthesis through the skin decreases with age, and factors such as the use of sunscreen, indoor work, or winter months further reduce its natural production.

Women over 40 are particularly vulnerable, as hormonal changes associated with perimenopause and menopause accelerate bone density loss. Maintaining adequate vitamin D levels is therefore one of the most important preventive measures at this stage.

Instructions for use — How to take vitamin D3?

Take 1 pearl daily, preferably with a meal containing fats. Vitamin D is fat-soluble, which means it is better absorbed when taken with fat-containing foods such as avocado, nuts, or olive oil.

•       Recommended daily dose: 1 pearl (400 IU / 10 mcg)

•       Best time: with breakfast or the main meal

•       Tip: combine it with calcium for greater bone protection

•       Do not exceed the recommended daily dose unless medically advised

Why vitamin D3 and not D2?

There are two main forms of vitamin D in supplements: D2 (ergocalciferol) and D3 (cholecalciferol). Vitamin D3 is the form that the human body itself produces when the skin is exposed to the sun, and it has been shown to raise blood levels more effectively and for longer than D2.
