Solgar Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol) 4000 IU (100 µg) 120 Vegetable Capsules is a food supplement providing a maximum-strength dose of vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) in a vegetable capsule, taken once daily. Vitamin D contributes to the normal function of the immune system and helps maintain normal bones, teeth and muscle function by supporting the normal absorption of calcium. The capsule shell is vegetable-based rather than gelatin, making it suitable for vegetarians, and each pack of 120 capsules provides around four months' supply at one capsule a day.
**Key Features**
- **Maximum-strength 100 µg dose:** Each capsule provides 100 µg (4000 IU) of vitamin D3, equal to the safe upper daily limit set for adults under UK guidance.
- **Vegetable capsule:** The shell is made from hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose rather than gelatin, and the product is Kosher certified.
- **Vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) form:** Provides vitamin D as D3, the same form the body makes from sunlight on skin.
- **Supports bones, teeth, muscles and immunity:** Contributes to the normal absorption of calcium and phosphorus, maintenance of normal bones and teeth, normal muscle function and the normal function of the immune system.
### Is 100 µg (4000 IU) too much vitamin D to take every day?
The Department of Health and Social Care recommends 10 µg of vitamin D a day for most adults. This capsule provides 100 µg (4000 IU), which is the maximum amount considered safe for adults to take daily under UK guidance. Do not take other vitamin D supplements or fortified products at the same time without medical advice.
### How does this compare to a standard-strength vitamin D3 supplement?
This capsule provides four times the vitamin D of a standard 25 µg tablet. Higher-strength supplements like this are generally chosen on the advice of a doctor or pharmacist, since most people only need 10 µg a day.
### How long will a pack of 120 capsules last?
At the recommended dose of one capsule a day, a pack of 120 capsules provides around four months' supply.
### Is this supplement suitable for vegetarians?
Yes. The capsule shell is made from hydroxypropylmethyl cellulose rather than gelatin, and the product is Kosher certified.
