PurePharmaD3 Vitamin D
Vitamin D deficiency can lead to muscle weakness, osteopenia, osteoporosis, bone fractures, insulin resistance, cognitive impairment, decreased immune defense, and much more. Vitamin D is a fat-soluble vitamin, meaning the body cannot absorb it without fat. In PurePharma D3, we have gently extracted vitamin D3 from sheep’s wool (lanolin) and blended it with organic coconut oil to ensure maximum absorption. PurePharma D3 is certified free of GMOs and banned substances by IFIT, the International Fitness Ingredient Testing laboratory.

a proprietary absorption enhancer (vitamin B6 and malic acid), PurePharma has created a product for performance and recovery. PurePharma M3 Magnesium is made from organic minerals and is certified
free of GMOs and banned substances by IFIT, the International Fitness Ingredient Testing laboratory.
