Platinum Naturals Vitamin D3 Extra Strength 2500 IU — 180 Softgels in MCT Oil

Platinum Naturals Vitamin D3 Extra Strength delivers 2,500 IU of Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol) per softgel, suspended in Medium Chain Triglycerides (MCT oil from coconut) for superior absorption. Fat-soluble vitamins like D3 absorb significantly better with dietary fat — Platinum Naturals builds that fat directly into each softgel via MCT oil, ensuring reliable absorption with every dose regardless of meal timing. No binders, no fillers, no preservatives, no artificial colours — pure D3 in clean MCT oil. An essential supplement for Canadians, whose northern latitude and indoor lifestyles make Vitamin D deficiency one of the most prevalent and consequential nutrient shortfalls in the country.

Spec Detail
Vitamin D3 per softgel 2,500 IU (62.5 mcg) Cholecalciferol
Softgels per container 180 softgels
Delivery medium MCT oil (from coconut) — Omega Absorb™ technology
Additives None — no binders, fillers, preservatives, or artificial colours

Made in Canada
  • 2,500 IU per softgel — extra strength for Canadian latitude: Standard 1,000 IU doses are often insufficient for Canadians, particularly in fall and winter when UV-B exposure drops to near zero for months. 2,500 IU daily is within the safe supplementation range and more effectively maintains adequate serum 25(OH)D levels throughout the year.
  • MCT oil carrier for superior absorption: Vitamin D3 is fat-soluble — it requires dietary fat for absorption. Platinum Naturals suspends D3 in MCT oil from coconut directly in the softgel, eliminating the absorption uncertainty of taking a dry tablet without food.
  • No unnecessary additives: Many Vitamin D supplements contain magnesium stearate, silicon dioxide, cellulose, and other fillers. This formula contains nothing beyond D3, MCT oil, and the minimal softgel shell ingredients.
  • 180 softgels — 6-month supply: At one softgel per day, 180 softgels provides a full six-month supply — a full fall/winter Canadian season covered in one purchase.
  • Made in Canada: Platinum Naturals is a Canadian brand manufacturing under Health Canada GMP standards.

Best for: All Canadians — particularly those north of the 45th parallel (most of Canada's population), older adults with reduced skin synthesis efficiency, people who work indoors, individuals with darker skin tones (reduced UV-B conversion), and anyone whose bloodwork has indicated low serum Vitamin D. An essential year-round supplement for most Canadians.

Not ideal for: Those with hypercalcemia (excess blood calcium) or sarcoidosis should consult a physician before taking supplemental Vitamin D. For those who require dosing above 4,000 IU/day, medical supervision is recommended.

Ingredients & Allergens: Medicinal: Vitamin D3 (Cholecalciferol) 62.5 mcg / 2,500 IU. Non-Medicinal: Medium Chain Triglycerides (from coconut oil), Gelatin, Glycerin, Purified Water. No binders, fillers, lubricants, preservatives, or artificial colours. Contains: Coconut (MCT oil), Gelatin (bovine). Made in Canada.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why do Canadians need Vitamin D supplements?
Canada's northern latitude means UV-B radiation — the wavelength that triggers Vitamin D synthesis in the skin — is insufficient for meaningful Vitamin D production from approximately October through April for most of the country. During these months, supplementation is the only reliable way to maintain adequate serum Vitamin D levels. Even in summer, indoor work, sun avoidance, and sunscreen use limit natural synthesis. Health Canada acknowledges Vitamin D deficiency as widespread in Canada.
Is 2,500 IU of Vitamin D3 safe to take daily?
Yes. 2,500 IU per day is within the safe supplementation range for most healthy adults. Health Canada sets the Tolerable Upper Intake Level (UL) for Vitamin D at 4,000 IU/day for adults. Standard supplementation guidance for Canadians ranges from 1,000–4,000 IU daily depending on age, body weight, serum levels, and sun exposure. For personalized guidance, testing serum 25(OH)D levels through a healthcare provider allows precise dose adjustment.
Why is MCT oil used as the carrier in Platinum Naturals Vitamin D3?
Vitamin D3 is fat-soluble — it dissolves in fat, not water, and requires dietary fat for proper intestinal absorption. MCT oil (from coconut) is one of the most efficiently absorbed fats available. By suspending D3 in MCT oil within the softgel itself, Platinum Naturals ensures reliable, high absorption with every dose — eliminating the variability that occurs when dry-compressed D3 tablets are taken without food.
How many days does the 180-softgel container last?
At one softgel per day, the 180-softgel container provides a 180-day (6-month) supply — enough to cover a full Canadian fall and winter season. At two softgels per day (5,000 IU), it provides a 90-day supply.
Should I take Vitamin D3 with Vitamin K2?
Many practitioners recommend combining Vitamin D3 with Vitamin K2 when supplementing at higher doses. Vitamin D increases calcium absorption, and Vitamin K2 (particularly MK-7) helps direct that calcium toward bones and teeth rather than arterial walls. If you are supplementing with 2,500 IU or more of D3 daily over the long term, adding a K2 supplement is a reasonable complement. Platinum Naturals Ultra Mag-Z includes both D3 and K2 in one formula.
