Other Ingredients (5)
MaltodextrinBinder
Spikes blood sugar faster than table sugar (glycemic index 85–105). Research links it to gut bacteria changes that may promote intestinal inflammation (Nickerson et al. 2015). Used as a cheap filler — adds nothing beneficial.
Silicon DioxideAnti-caking
Fine silica powder used to prevent clumping
Magnesium StearateLubricant
A salt of stearic acid used as a lubricant in tablet and capsule production
Coating (unspecified)Coating
Generic tablet coating declaration where the label does not itemize the coating's components; modern aqueous film coatings are typically cellulose-based (HPMC) with a plasticizer
Microcrystalline CelluloseBinder
Plant-derived cellulose used as a binder and filler in supplements
How to Take It
Take it anytime
No evidence a formula this broad works better at any particular hour. Take it with a meal containing fat — the vitamin D in it absorbs poorly without one.
With a meal containing fat
Keep it away from high-oxalate foods like spinach
Space it a couple of hours from Iron
