Help maintain vitamin D levels
BetterYou Vitamin D 1000 IU Daily Oral Spray is a convenient daily oral vitamin D spray to help maintain vitamin D levels, to support a healthy lifestyle. Delivering 1000IU per spray, D1000 provides an effective maintenance dosage for adults and teenagers. Formulated to provide optimal nutritional delivery, each spray provides the vitamin D in micro-sized droplets that coat and permeate the soft-tissue of the inner cheek, delivery the essential nutrients into the rich vein system below. This allows the formulation to quickly enter the bloodstream for optimal absorption.
Importance of vitamin D
Vitamin D helps support healthy bones and teeth by aiding calcium absorption, contributes to immunity by contributing to the healthy functioning of the immune system and helps maintain normal muscle function.
Who needs it
Due to our changing diets and ever-increasing internal lifestyles, everyone should look to ensure they maintain healthy vitamin D levels throughout the year. However, the Department of Health outlines the following groups as 'at-risk' and should strongly consider supplementation:
- All pregnant and breastfeeding women
- Infants and young children under 5 years of age
- Older people aged 65 years and over
- People who have low or no exposure to the sun
- People who have darker skin
What is the source of D3 in your Vitamin D Oral Sprays?
The vitamin D3 contained in the majority of our vitamin D sprays is sourced from Lanolin, which is the wool from a sheep. While the D3 in our D1000 Vegan Vitamin D Oral Spray is sourced from algae and is vegan approved by the Vegetarian Society.
What dosage of vitamin D should I take?
We recommend a dosage level based on body weight and advise supplementation of 1000IU of vitamin D per 25kg of body weight. This usually equates to one spray of D3000 per day for adults living in the UK. For children our D400 Infant and D400 Junior products provide ideal daily dosage levels.
I'm taking multiple sprays, should I spread it throughout the day or take them all at once?
This is down to personal preference, either way provides optimal absorption.
Are there any contraindications with taking the vitamin D sprays?
There are no interactions with taking the single nutrient vitamin D oral sprays with any medication. However, if you are taking anti-coagulants (blood thinners) we do not recommend the D3000+K2, unless on the advice of your doctor. We always recommend speaking to your GP before starting any dietary supplements if you are on any medications or have any medical conditions.
