Vitamin D3 is better absorbed than D2, and made from sustainably-sourced algae. As it’s a fat-soluble vitamin, take alongside fatty foods (nuts or seeds) for best effects.

Many people are low in vitamin D due to not being outside or eating animal products. But don’t take more than the recommended dose, as this can cause vomiting or kidney stones. Always check with your doctor before taking supplements if on medication (or pregnant/nursing).

Also keep supplements away from children and pets. Recycle unused supplements (or medications) at pharmacies, never flush down the toilets. 

Why take vegan vitamin D supplements?

People who don’t eat animal foods or spend a lot of time indoors may be deficient in vitamin D, especially in winter months (some multi-vitamins contain them, so don’t take more if already in them).

The main sources of vitamin D in animal foods have their own concerns (over-fishing for oily fish, cholesterol for egg yolks and cholesterol).

Vitamin D is sometimes in fortified foods like cereals, but to save costs, most use lanolin (from sheep fat) so again are not suitable for vegans. But Vitamin D3 is important for:

  • Strong immunity
  • Strong bones & muscles
  • Healthy teeth
  • Helping to absorb calcium
  • Helps mood (the ‘sunshine’ vitamin)
  • Helps to avoid ‘brain fog’
