Healthspan Vegan Super Strength Vitamin D3 - 120 Capsules

What are Healthspan Vegan Super Strength Vitamin D Capsules?

Healthspan Vegan Super Strength Vitamin D Capsules are a great way of getting your recommended daily dose of vitamin D. In fact, these supplements contain more vitamin D than the suggested minimum level. While most vitamin D3 supplements come from an animal source (lanolin extracted from sheep’s wool), these supplements are ideal for anyone following a vegan or plant-based diet as they are produced from photosynthesising algae.

What is the recommended dosage?

The recommended dosage is one capsule per day, swallowed whole with water. Taking a food supplement can be beneficial for your health if you don’t get enough essential vitamins and minerals through your diet alone. These capsules are not, however, a substitute for a varied, balanced diet and healthy lifestyle. 

Why are vitamin D supplements recommended?

Vitamin D is an essential nutrient produced by our bodies when our skin is exposed to sunlight. The sun’s UVB rays interact with a protein called 7-DHC in our skin, converting it into vitamin D3 (the active form of vitamin D). The sun isn’t strong enough for our bodies to produce vitamin D during the autumn and winter months in the UK, which is why the NHS recommends that most of us should take a supplement. 

When should these capsules not be used? 

Healthspan Vegan Super Strength Vitamin D Capsules will be suitable for most people, but you should check with your doctor or Chemist4U pharmacist if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, have any pre-existing medical conditions or take any other medications or herbal remedies, including those obtained without a prescription.

Are there any side effects? 

It is very unlikely that you will experience any side effects from taking Healthspan Vegan Super Strength Vitamin D Capsules. If you experience any symptoms of an allergic reaction (difficulty breathing, swelling of the face, skin rash) seek medical attention immediately. 

If you experience any side effects, including those that are not listed in the patient information leaflet, you can report them using the MHRA Yellow Card Scheme.
