Vitamin D is a steroid vitamin, a group of fat-soluble pro-hormones that are best known for the role they play in supporting bone health and aiding in the absorption of calcium and phosphate from the gastrointestinal tract. However, a growing body of research highlights its important role in supporting other body systems, including cardiovascular and blood sugar balance as well as increasing musculoskeletal strength, neurological and immune function enabled by its ability to target over 200 different genes throughout the body. At the same time, deficiency and insufficiency of this important nutrient has reached epidemic proportions around the world, making the achievement of optimal levels extremely important to overall health.
Known as the sunshine vitamin, one of the key roles of vitamin D is maintaining serum calcium and phosphorous balance. The body makes vitamin D by converting vitamin D2 to D3, or cholecalciferol, when the skin is exposed to sunlight. Vitamin D supplements come in two forms, D2 and D3. Studies have found vitamin D3 is the preferable form, as it has been found to maintain active vitamin D levels for a longer period of time.*
The Vitamin D formula is delivered as D3 (cholecalciferol) for optimal use by the body, and is available in 1,000 and 5,000 IU capsules to meet a variety of individual needs.
Professional-grade products adhere to the strictest standards for purity and potency, and use the highest-grade ingredients available.

I would buy this product again.
I was diagnosed w/vitamin D deficiency. My doctor prescribed D supplements which I got from the pharmacy. The pharmacy supplements after 1 year did not elevate my ""D"" blood reading to a normal level. After 3 months on Ortho Molecular ""D"" 5000 My ""D"" readings exceeded the normal range. My doctor suggest I continue to take the Ortho Molecular 5000 ""D"" supplement to ensure my ""D"" level remains normal.

All my daily D in one pill!
My D levels were so low that my doc recommended 5000 units per day. I was so happy to find that amount in one pill. My vitamin D regularly tests up to optimal levels now! I'm so happy about that!
