The overall score is owner satisfaction weighted by how many reviews back it, so a high rating from few reviews counts for less.

Overview

Pure Encapsulations lists this product at 250 mcg (10,000 IU) of vitamin D3 per capsule, a notably higher potency than most D3 supplements on the market. The 120 capsule bottle is labeled vegetarian, and the maker markets it for bone, joint, and immune health support.

Because the per-capsule dose is high, this product is generally suited to buyers who already know they want a higher potency D3 supplement rather than a general daily maintenance dose. The vegetarian capsule shell is a point of differentiation from the brand's standard formula.

Reviews are strongly positive, with a 4.8 average from about 1,500 ratings. Given the high potency, it's especially worth checking in with a healthcare professional about what dose fits your needs before starting.
