D is the one most people in northern states are short of in winter; magnesium is involved in using it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e2,000 IU of vitamin D3 in one capsule, with 31 mg of magnesium alongside it. Read that second number carefully: this is vitamin D \u003cem\u003ewith\u003c\/em\u003e magnesium, not a magnesium supplement, and 31 mg is 7% of the Daily Value.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhat you are actually getting, per capsule\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVitamin D3\u003c\/strong\u003e (as cholecalciferol) — 50 mcg, which is 2,000 IU (250% of the Daily Value)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMagnesium\u003c\/strong\u003e (as magnesium citrate) — 31 mg (7% of the Daily Value)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWorth knowing before you buy\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe vitamin D side of this is a straightforward everyday dose. 2,000 IU is a common maintenance amount and it sits well under the 4,000 IU daily upper limit for adults. Check your multivitamin before you add it, though — vitamin D stacks, and multis often already carry 600 to 1,000 IU.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe magnesium is the part bottles like this one usually blur. 31 mg against a Daily Value of 420 mg is a supporting amount, and it is there because magnesium is involved in how the body handles vitamin D. It is not a magnesium dose in any meaningful sense. If you are short on magnesium, or taking it for sleep or muscle cramps, buy magnesium on its own — a real magnesium capsule runs 200 to 400 mg, six to twelve times what is in here.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSo: buy this if you want 2,000 IU of D3 and you like that a little magnesium rides along. Do not buy it expecting to have covered magnesium.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eHow to take it\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne capsule daily with 6–8 oz of water. Vitamin D is fat-soluble, so take it with a meal that has some fat in it. 30 capsules — a 30-day supply.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eOther ingredients\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eGelatin capsule.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe capsule is gelatin, so this one is not suitable for vegetarians or vegans.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCautions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSpeak to your doctor before taking vitamin D if you have kidney disease, high blood calcium, or a condition such as sarcoidosis, and if you take a thiazide diuretic or digoxin. Magnesium can interfere with the absorption of some antibiotics, so separate them by a couple of hours.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eKeep out of the reach of children. Do not use if the safety seal is damaged or missing. Store in a cool, dry place. Do not exceed the recommended dose. If you are pregnant, nursing, under 18, taking prescription medication or living with a medical condition, speak to your doctor or pharmacist before starting this or any supplement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003csmall\u003eThese statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration.
