Vitamin D3 10K UI available at local Walgreens 2 for 1 Sale

Anna asked you what made you think it was dry or water-miscible.  You responded that it was made from lanolin - that was either a non-sequitur, or you didn't understand HER question.

Regardless of the source of the D3, lanolin or fish oil for example, how it is FORMULATED after purification from the starting materials is what determines whether it is in oil or whether it is dry/water-miscible.

So I STILL don't understand what it being made from lanolin has to do with Anna's question, which is the major concern here - WHERE on the label does it say that it is dry or water-miscible?  And if not there, WHERE on the website is that information - I can't even find the D3 as a product on their website.

Andrea...thanks.

If you look at the info on the Walgreen's site it says this by the photo of the product:

An important B vitamin that has been clinically shown to promote general blood vessel and circulatory health.† This is a flush-free niacin product which is appropriate for general circulatory health and may not provide the same type of benefits as a regular niacin supplement. No artificial flavors, preservatives, yeast, starch or gluten.

†These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.

• Take one softgel daily, with a meal
• Keep bottle tightly closed
• Store in a cool, dry place

So they are describing a not-dry B vitamin.

Then I went to the Natrol site and tried to look up Vitamin D.  Here's the link to that page:

Doesn't look likke they even make Vitamin D at all....which is weird.


So back to the product...if we go by the info you're giving us--and I know YOU know what you're talking about--and accept that it IS a Dry Vitamin D....what we get is...and I'm thinking as I go so it could work out either way:


I take 100k-150k IU/day depending on how much sun I get.

From Vitalady--and whatever the maker is, but they charge more than she does--that costs ($22.55 / 100) x 2.5 = about 57-cents a day, taking 2.5 capsules a day. (For the purpose of average, I split the dosage.)  From Walgreen's, it's ($4.49 / 90) x 12.5 = about 62-cents a day when it's on sale, (taking 12.5 pills per day) twice as much when it's not.

So it's not MUCH more expensive that what we can get from Michelle, but it still isn't cheaper and it's five times as many pills, for those who need to supplement a lot.

And, hi!

If I were home, I'd take a photo of the bottle so you could see it, but I only brought pills. When I unpack, I can pix those iffn you want.

Offsale, these come out slightly more than Michelle not counting shipping. But the sale can make it worthwhile, especially for those on the lower dosages (like 20k)

Hi Barb,

Good information....Thanks!

???

So I"m obviously missing something!

In what way is information that will allow me to spend $100+ a month on something I now get for less than $20 "good information?"

(Sounds like a plan Congress would come up with.  lol)
