Vitamin D3 2000 IU Softgels
While a 'budget' brand, Nature Made is USP (United States Pharmacopeia) Verified, meaning the ingredients, potency, and manufacturing process are strictly audited by a third party. It is the most reliable low-cost option on the market.
Ingredients & Purity
Uses Vitamin D3 and soybean oil as a carrier. While soybean oil is less desirable than olive oil, it is functionally effective for D3 absorption.
Scientific Evidence
USP Verified. This is a rigorous, voluntary certification that confirms the product actually contains the ingredients listed in the declared potency and dissolves properly.
Brand Transparency
Transparency is limited to the USP audit; they do not provide individual batch COAs to customers like Nordic Naturals does.
Value Assessment
Unbeatable value. Often available for less than $0.05 per serving, making it the best choice for those needing a high-quality product on a strict budget.
Why Not Alternatives?
Other budget brands like Solgar or store brands (Kirkland, Walgreens) often lack the USP seal or use more complex filler profiles. Nature Made is the most scientifically 'vetted' for the price point.
