Ultra Vitamin D provides optimum strength vitamin D which plays a truly remarkable role in the body and is important for many areas of health. It not only contributes to the maintenance of normal bones and teeth but is also known for its role in supporting normal function of the immune system, normal cell division and normal muscle function. Vitamin D is synthesized by the body on exposure to sunlight, however many people are now following health advice to avoid too much sun exposure, which reduces vitamin D levels in the body.

sorted byUKHSA guidance states that everyone should consider taking a form of supplementation in autumn/winter- the guidance states 400IU a day.
If you are vitamin D deficient (guidelines state that we shouldn’t routinely be testing because the majority of people are deficient), you should be on 800-2000units a day.
If you are particularly low, you will have symptoms (bone pain and weakness/tiredness being the two main symptoms) and will require a test via your GP to check your levels, your GP may prescribe you a once weekly 50,000unit dose for 6 weeks to bring your levels up more rapidly.
Short answer is, yes go for it.
Hope that helps
Unlike vitamin D you can get enough K2 vitamin through a normal diet
Heres what the NHS say
'You should be able to get all the vitamin K you need by eating a varied and balanced diet.
Any vitamin K your body does not need immediately is stored in the liver for future use, so you do not need it in your diet every day."
Could well be I am missing something, I'm no expert on these things.

Just in case someone sees this and thinks it applies universally.
Cheers.
Edit: also, you'll want to keep the cut pills in an airtight container to reduce oxidation. (edited)
You need 4000iu a day just to maintain your current levels.
10,000iu is a good level during the darker days.
I've been taking 10,000iu a day, every day, for over 5 years and never been healthier.
My hip replacement healed in 4 weeks and I was back at work.
Vitamin D3 is also fat soluble so if you are overweight, you will lose some of that 1000iu before it reaches the places it needs to get to.
Take in conjuction with magnesium to help transport it around your body. I take vitamin K2 to help distribute the calcium around my body and not get stuck in my veins.
My vitamon D level 5 years ago was 7nmol/L. I was suffering from aches and pains (diagnosed with fibromyalgia) and on 36 tablets a day. I researched vitamin D3 and found out about high dosing (up to 50,000iu a day). Within 4 weeks I felt amazing. the pains had gone and I had a new lease of life. I came off the tablets and dropoped to 10,000iu a day. I had my levels checked again 3 month later and they were 235 nmol/L. The NHS say 74 nmol/L is optimal.
After discussing my levels with the specialist who did my hip replacement, he said I had the healithies levels of vitamin D he'd seen in a patient for a long time.
When I talked to my GP at the time, about it, he admitting knowing nothing about vitamin D.
NHS website advice
1. These do NOT include the vegetarian source of D3
2. Vitamin K2 is also crucial for maximizing the benefits and minimizing the risks of vitamin D - these are not paired with K2
Personally I always buy D3 when it's paired with K2.
Vit d is not actually a vitamin it’s a hormone soo important for your body’s defence against covid & flu scientists proved you can’t overdose starting point should be 4/5 thou iu a day ? cheap as chips on Amazon years supply at the said dose is roughly £8 ! (edited)
The one from Lidl has double the amount of tablets (180) and costs the same price?

That is perfect for vitamin D levels, has K2 which helps absorption of D3.
It also significantly reduces mortality with COVID-19 with levels above 125 nmol/L, if you know your levels.
I have been as high as 130, GP not bothered at all, I think the NHS only recommends up to 100, which is still too low for optimal health.
Any dose < 10000IU per day won't give you toxicity, so 4-5000 definitely wont.

This Is 4000 iu
It sounds like if you took a multivitamin, which will probably contain at least a few micrograms of b12, in addition to your usual b12 supplement that there shouldn’t be any issues. It’ll probably work out a lot cheaper and make things a lot simpler.

Currently, £5 on Amazon too. Bought 2 packs yesterday.
Beats Boots, even after their 3for2 offer.
If your highly overweight with dark skin and a horrible diet and never go outside then you probably need these.
If your trim and ghostly pale with a good diet and regularly spend time outside during the day these may be of no benefit at all (Likely not harmful).
The only way you know for sure is a blood test.

Don't know if this has changed.
my nephew had rickets at 12m old & was given supplementary Vit D.
Went down the rabbit hole with this as my SIL said 'He'll grow out of it'
& refused to go to the GP. (pre pandemic)
I take 4,000 units a day, haven't had a cold /been sick in four years.
May well be a coincidence - lots more studies done due to Covid19.
DYOR.
whats the difference to taking these, as the multivitamins has vitamin D in them ? (edited)
