Strong

evidence for vitamin d3

Our honest take

A plain vitamin D3 capsule giving 50 µg (2,000 IU) a day. That is five times the 10 µg the NHS suggests for adults in autumn and winter, but still half the 100 µg daily limit, so it is a reasonable dose for people who get little sun. At a few pence a day it is one of the cheapest ways to cover your vitamin D. If you just want the NHS baseline, a 10 to 25 µg product is enough.

  • You want a cheap, simple vitamin D3 for the UK autumn and winter
  • You get little sun, cover up outdoors or have darker skin
  • You prefer one small capsule a day over drops or sprays
  • You already take another product with vitamin D: check your total stays under 100 µg a day
  • You have kidney disease, sarcoidosis or high calcium levels: ask your GP first
  • You are buying for a child under 11: choose a children's dose instead
The science

Vitamin D3· evidence: Strong

Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) is the form the skin makes from sunlight. In the UK there is not enough strong sunlight from about October to March, so many people have low levels over winter. Good-quality trials show supplements reliably raise blood levels and correct deficiency, and that matters for bone health in people who are low.

The NHS advises everyone to consider 10 µg (400 IU) a day in autumn and winter, and all year round for people who get little sun, cover their skin, have darker skin or live in care homes. For people who already have adequate levels, large trials have not shown that extra vitamin D prevents falls, fractures or other illness.

In short: a modest daily dose is sensible and cheap insurance for most UK adults in winter. Very high doses are not better and should only be taken on medical advice.

Authorised health claim
Vitamin D contributes to the normal function of the immune system. Vitamin D contributes to the maintenance of normal bones. Vitamin D contributes to the maintenance of normal muscle function. Vitamin D contributes to the maintenance of normal teeth. Vitamin D contributes to normal absorption/utilisation of calcium and phosphorus. (Applies where a daily dose gives at least 15% of the NRV, i.e. 0.75 µg.)

Typical dose: 10 µg (400 IU) a day is the NHS advice for adults and children over 1. Doses of 25 µg (1,000 IU) to 50 µg (2,000 IU) are common and safe for adults. Babies under 1 need 8.5 to 10 µg a day unless they have more than 500 ml of formula.

Safety: Do not take more than 100 µg (4,000 IU) a day without medical advice (FSA/NHS); children aged 1 to 10 should not have more than 50 µg, and babies under 1 no more than 25 µg. Long-term very high intake can raise blood calcium, which can damage the kidneys and heart. People with kidney disease, sarcoidosis or high calcium levels should speak to their GP first.

Ingredients & nutrition

Main active: vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) in an oil-filled capsule. Check the pack for the full ingredient list and whether the capsule shell is gelatin.

Per daily dose (1 capsule): vitamin D3 50 µg (2,000 IU, 1,000% NRV). Packs of 60, 120 or 200 capsules give 60, 120 or 200 daily doses.

Always check the pack you receive, as manufacturers sometimes update recipes.

How to use

Take 1 capsule a day with a meal that contains some fat, which helps absorption. Do not exceed the stated daily dose. Count any other vitamin D you take and keep your total under 100 µg (4,000 IU) a day unless a doctor advises otherwise.
