Product details
Vitamin D3 1000 plus Calcium Intensive Care™ is a mild all-natural formula designed to address the special requirements of virtually all individuals, particularly women, to consume extra vitamin D3 and calcium. This formula begins with 1,000 IU of Vitamin D3, which has recently been recognized as perhaps the most important single vitamin to supplement separately. We then combine our Vitamin D3 1000 with the exceptionally mild and soluble sources of calcium found in our unique Calcium Intensive Care.
Vitamin D has long been recognized for its essential role in the maintenance of all bone and skeletal tissues, since without vitamin D, calcium cannot be absorbed and utilized by the body. Although calcium’s role in bone health is unquestioned, the benefits of calcium cannot be realized without adequate levels of vitamin D, making vitamin D just as essential as calcium in any bone health regime. Vitamin D’s role in supporting the health of other body systems has recently made headlines in newspapers and the medical literature and experts now seek to substantially raise the recommended levels of vitamin D.
The body can manufacture limited amounts of vitamin D when exposed to sunlight (via its damaging UV radiation); however, the aging process combined with our reduced exposure to sunlight and increased use of sunscreens makes our body’s production of vitamin D inadequate and unreliable at best. Making matters worse is the fact that vitamin D is not abundant in food, and is only present in very limited quantities in some fish and eggs.
Recognizing this, Andrew Lessman has always given special attention to vitamin D3, providing higher levels than found in the leading multivitamins, while also including vitamin D3 in all his calcium and bone health products for over 30 years. Now, with our Vitamin D3 1000 plus Calcium Intensive Care you get 1,000 IU of Vitamin D3 combined with the special ingredients present in our Calcium Intensive Care. Best of all, this formula is extremely economical and guaranteed gentle even to the most sensitive stomachs.

Key benefits
Vitamin D3 and Calcium for Healthy Bones
Calcium is the main mineral in bone, and vitamin D helps your intestines absorb calcium from food. Without enough vitamin D, your body can absorb only a small fraction of the calcium you take in, which is why the two work hand in hand to support healthy bones and teeth. Each 2-capsule serving provides 1,000 IU (25 mcg) of Vitamin D3 (125% DV) and 500 mg of Calcium (38% DV).
Gentle, Easily Absorbed Calcium
The calcium in this formula comes from the same blend of forms found in our Calcium Intensive Care™: Calcium malate, carbonate and ascorbate, chosen to balance concentration with absorption, plus Boron and Vitamin C. For best absorption, take it with a meal.
Helps Fill the Vitamin D Gap
Your skin makes vitamin D from sunlight, but how much depends on the season, where you live, time spent outdoors, skin tone, and age, since older skin makes less. Few foods naturally contain much vitamin D aside from fatty fish, egg yolks and fortified foods, so a daily supplement offers a reliable source.

Frequently asked questions
Why does this use Vitamin D3 instead of D2?
D3 (Cholecalciferol) is the form your skin makes from sunlight, and it’s also found in foods like fatty fish and egg yolks. D2 (Ergocalciferol) comes mainly from yeast and mushrooms. This formula uses D3 because research shows it’s more effective at raising and maintaining vitamin D levels in the blood.
Why do Vitamin D and Calcium work together?
Vitamin D helps your intestines absorb calcium and phosphorus from food and helps keep calcium levels in your blood steady. Without enough vitamin D, much of the calcium you consume isn’t absorbed, so getting both supports your bones far better than either alone.
How is this different from Calcium Intensive Care™?
This formula combines the calcium blend from Calcium Intensive Care™ with a higher amount of Vitamin D3, 1,000 IU per serving, for those who’d like additional vitamin D support alongside their calcium.
Can I take this with my multivitamin?
Generally, yes, but check the vitamin D and calcium in your multivitamin and other supplements so your daily total stays within recommended amounts. Health authorities recommend that adults stay below 4,000 IU of vitamin D and 2,000 to 2,500 mg of calcium a day from all sources.
