  • Glycerol: We need glycerol in our capsules to reduce the brittleness and make sure that they last. Glycerol is used as a solvent for flavours and food colours, and is safe when consumed orally.  It is also used as a humectant, plasticiser, emollient, sweetener and filler in low-fat food products such as cookies.  
  • Starch: Many supplements use gelatine, but we use compound hydroxypropyl starch as a cruelty-free and plant-based alternative. 
  • Sunflower seed oil: a carrier oil which helps to improve the absorption and bioavailability of the vitamin D3. Sunflower seed oil is a high-quality source of fat that is rich in unsaturated fatty acids, including Omega-6 and Omega-9 fatty acids. 
  • MCT/Fractionated Coconut Oil -  Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin. That means it should be taken with a meal containing fat for the best absorption.  We included it in the capsule for you already! 
  • Vitamin E (Tocopherol Rich Extract E306)a preservative, antioxidant (prevents the formation of free radicals which may be harmful to health).
