What is Algae-Derived Organic D3?

The D3 found in Enzymedica’s Vitamin D3 + Vitamin K2 comes from sustainably sourced and organic algae – not lanolin like some other D3 supplements. The benefit of using organic D3 is that it is purer and does not contain harsh chemicals that are used in conventional harvesting methods.

Why choose algae and not lichens? Compared with lichen-based vegan sources of D3, this patented form from algae is 100% pure D3 (it contains no D2). It is a 1:1 direct replacement for lanolin-based cholecalciferol and offers superior stability over lichen D3. VegD3® is 100% sustainable and fully traceable, as it is grown in a controlled environment in Europe. (Lichen must be removed from an existing ecosystem, which can have a negative impact and carries a risk for contamination.) And VegD3® has no noticeable taste or color.
