Our Vitamin D3 5000 IU is sourced from cholecalciferol, which is derived from lanolin, a substance obtained from sheep’s wool. Lanolin is a natural wax secreted by sheep to protect their wool. When the wool is sheared, lanolin is extracted and processed to produce cholecalciferol, the active form of Vitamin D3.
Is Vitamin D3 5000 IU Vegan?
No, our Vitamin D3 5000 IU is not vegan because lanolin is an animal-derived ingredient. Those following a strict vegan lifestyle check out our Vitamin D3 2000 IU, which is a highly bioavailable vegan & allergen-free form of Vitamin D3 dissolved in organic Extra Virgin Olive Oil.
