As microalgae grows with sunlight, it consumes carbon dioxide and releases oxygen for us to breathe.
Adequate intake of vitamin D is essential to maintain healthy bones. Vitamin D is necessary for calcium and phosphorus absorption, which is why it is a major component of bone health.* Ingesting adequate calcium and vitamin D throughout life as part of a well-balanced diet may reduce the risk of osteoporosis.

Vitamin D is found in certain foods, and our bodies also produce it through exposure to sunlight. However, a number of factors impact the ability for people to get necessary levels of vitamin D through sun exposure. Factors that prevent people from getting sun exposure include wearing sunblock, cloud cover patterns, smog, and the angle at which the sun hits the earth where you live.

Several placebo-controlled studies have shown that vitamin D can regulate the growth and function of immune cells, which are critical for a healthy immune and inflammatory response. In one study, participants who were given 50 mcg (2,000 IU) of vitamin D saw a higher concentration of the immune cells responsible for strengthening our bodies’ natural defense system.*

To produce our Vegan D we use a multi-step extraction process without the use of hexane or other harsh solvents. Our D3 then undergoes comprehensive testing for toxins and compounds that can grow in the same water-based environment as our algae.
Our Vegan D contains vitamin D3 produced from non-GMO algae grown on farms in Europe. Algae is a rapid-growing plant with little to no negative impact on its local environment, making it one of the most sustainable and responsible farmed food sources available.
