Vitamin B3
Vitamin B3- Reliable and relatively consistent scientific data showing a substantial health benefit.
- Contradictory, insufficient, or preliminary studies suggesting a health benefit or minimal health benefit.
- For an herb, supported by traditional use but minimal or no scientific evidence. For a supplement, little scientific support.
Our proprietary "Star-Rating" system was developed to help you easily understand the amount of scientific support behind each supplement in relation to a specific health condition. While there is no way to predict whether a vitamin, mineral, or herb will successfully treat or prevent associated health conditions, our unique ratings tell you how well these supplements are understood by the medical community, and whether studies have found them to be effective for other people.
For over a decade, our team has combed through thousands of research articles published in reputable journals. To help you make educated decisions, and to better understand controversial or confusing supplements, our medical experts have digested the science into these three easy-to-follow ratings. We hope this provides you with a helpful resource to make informed decisions towards your health and well-being.

I've taking this for 3-months. I have been able to adjust the amount recommanded by my doctor easily. My blood tests for vitamin D have incresed with significance by end of 1mo on this product. I had tried other products 4 months prior w/no change to tests. I have a lot of allergies & I can take this! It is a blessing!

Comments about NOW NUTRITION Now® Liquid Vitamin D-3:
This is a re-order of NOW liquid vitamin D3 and I will continue to order it as long as the product is available. I love it! It does NOT have any fillers unlike other capsules or tablets so it won't harm your liver. It's easy to take, just add to other liquid and drink. Dosage is easy as well, you can count drops or use it by the full dropper. How easy is that! You will love it as much as I do or you can get your money back.
