What the Evidence Says

✨ AI-generated · Qwen 3.6 · grounded in 1 source · methodology

Vitamin D3 is supported by strong evidence for maintaining bone health and supporting immune function. However, the high 5,000 IU dosage may lead to toxicity or hypercalcemia if taken without medical supervision. These potential safety concerns contribute to the lower safety score for this specific concentration.
