Thorne’s D-5,000 contains 5,000 IU of high-quality vitamin D3 and is NSF Certified for Sport®. Although it is well known that direct sunlight is a natural source of vitamin D, many individuals, especially the elderly, don’t get enough vitamin D from sunlight or from their diet. Be sure you get the vitamin D your body needs with Thorne’s easily absorbed Vitamin D-5,000.
Benefits of Thorne’s Vitamin D-5000:
Supports healthy teeth and bones
Promotes lean muscle mass and helps maintain muscle strength
Enhances the absorption and retention of calcium
Supports healthy brain function
Promotes cardiovascular health and immune function
Formulated with vitamin D3, a more potent and better absorbed form than vitamin D2
Thorne’s vitamin D contains no lactose and no preservatives like BHT, BHA, sodium benzoate, and sorbic acid
You could be at a higher risk of a vitamin D deficiency if you:
Rarely go outdoors, live in the northern latitudes, or have a darker skin tone
Have limited sun exposure due to your occupation, clothing choices, or engage in indoor athletics rather than outdoor sports
Regularly wear sunscreen with an SPF greater than 8
Are an older adult (the risk of a deficiency increases with age beginning at age 50)
Have a chronic health condition, such as a bowel disease or a surgical procedure (like gastric bypass) that decreases fat absorption
Are obese
The optimal amount of vitamin D for an individual depends on many factors and varies from person to person. Therefore, the requirement for vitamin D supplementation should be individualized. Either of Thorne’s D-1,000 or D-5,000 can be an ideal way to maintain an optimal level of vitamin D in healthy individuals.
Because an athlete needs to know that his or her supplements are trustworthy and compliant, every batch of an NSF Certified for Sport® product is tested for compliance with label claims and to ensure the absence of more than 200 substances banned by many major athletic organizations, including stimulants, narcotics, steroids, diuretics, beta-2 agonists, and masking agents.
