Vitamin D-5,000 - NSF Certified for Sport - 120 Servings
Vitamin D is foundational to bone strength, muscle function, and immune resilience—especially critical when training hard or living in climates where sunlight exposure is limited. Thorne's D-5,000 delivers highly absorbable D3 in a form trusted by athletes and verified by NSF Certified for Sport®, so you can fill the gap that diet and sunlight alone often leave behind.
Thorne Vitamin D-5,000 IU provides 120 servings of highly absorbable vitamin D3, NSF Certified for Sport, making it a trusted option for athletes and adults whose sun exposure or diet may leave their vitamin D levels short of optimal.
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.
