Study, Trial or Testing Result Summary
Members OnlyHuman studies
This product is a vitamin D3 gummy, listed by the store as containing vitamin D3 along with calories and carbohydrates from the gummy base. Members looking at it for heart health and blood sugar should know that our research found no human studies on this goal for its ingredients. That means we cannot say whether this vitamin D3 gummy helps with heart health or blood sugar control. The label we were given was incomplete. It showed only a calorie line with no amount, so we could not confirm the dose of vitamin D3 per serving from the label itself. The product name states 50 micrograms. No customer reviews were counted and no written reviews could be read, so we have no information on how people using it for this goal have fared. No experts on our biohacker panel commented on it. Until human studies on vitamin D3 for heart health or blood sugar are added to our database, this product stays at the emerging level. It is not ranked higher because there is not enough evidence yet to show a clear benefit for this goal. Animal and cell studies are never counted.

Biohacker Summary
Members Only0 of 10 recommend it
0 of 10 biohackers on our panel recommend it
Vitamin D is the only ingredient here, but the instructions call it a smaller ingredient in this product, so the panel's views are about vitamin D in general, and most of the panel recommends or uses it. Several take it themselves, with five of them giving daily doses of 5,000 IU of D3 in the morning or 10,000 IU or more in winter, and others aim for blood levels, with targets ranging from 40 up to 100 ng per ml. They take it for immune support, brain and mood, bone health, longevity and general health, and some use it more in fall and winter or when sun exposure is low. Common pairings are vitamin K2, magnesium and dietary fat, since one panelist says vitamin D is fat soluble and absorbs better with food that contains fat. One panelist cautions that supplementing makes little sense unless you are deficient, and several suggest testing your levels first.
