Why choose a plant-based vitamin D supplement like Optim D3?
Optim D3 is a natural and 100% vegetable solution. Its vitamin D3 concentration is ideal for the whole family: children from one year old and adults.
The coconut oil extract used in its composition gives it a pleasant taste.

Is it better to take vitamin D drops or tablets?
We have opted for the dropper bottle of coconut oil because it is easy to take or give. Thus, the dose of vitamin D can be adapted depending on whether it is given to adults or children.
In addition, a recent paper shows that absorption of vitamin D3 from an oil solution (in oil) does not alter its effect if taken with or without meals. (Cavalier et al. 2016)

Optim D3 vitamin D is mixed with organic coconut oil extract for optimal absorption. Indeed, the oily form allows a good absorption of vitamin D3 during or outside a meal. (Cavalier 2016)
