Product Overview
This is NOW® Foods’ maximum-potency D3 designed for short-term correction of deficiency
under healthcare supervision. Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) helps your body absorb calcium and phosphorus,
supports immune function, contributes to muscle performance, and maintains healthy teeth and bones.
Small, easy-to-swallow softgels.
Why 50,000 IU & Who It’s For
High-dose, rapid repletion: Used intermittently (e.g., weekly) to raise low 25(OH)D levels.
Not for daily use. Best for individuals with confirmed deficiency and regular lab monitoring.
If you want a daily maintenance option, consider 1,000–5,000 IU products instead.
