Swallow a D3 vitamin 1000 IU capsule with water, following the product directions or your clinician’s instructions. Don’t cut, chew, or open the capsule unless its packaging specifically says that is appropriate.
Taking a D3 vitamin 1000 IU capsule with a meal that contains some fat can help absorption. A consistent meal also makes it easier to remember your daily supplement.
Yes, a D3 vitamin 1000 IU capsule is commonly taken daily, but your needs and the length of use depend on your situation. Add up vitamin D from other supplements so you don’t unknowingly double up.
There is no established best time of day for a D3 vitamin 1000 IU capsule. Take it with a meal at a time you can follow consistently; morning versus evening is mainly a matter of routine.
Yes, you can take a D3 vitamin 1000 IU capsule on an empty stomach, but taking it with a meal containing fat may aid absorption. If it upsets your stomach, take it with food.
A D3 vitamin 1000 IU capsule is usually well tolerated when used as directed. Excessive vitamin D intake over time can raise blood calcium and cause nausea, constipation, unusual thirst, or frequent urination.
Yes, a D3 vitamin 1000 IU capsule can be taken with vitamin K2, but K2 is not automatically necessary. If you take warfarin or another vitamin K-sensitive anticoagulant, ask your prescriber before adding K2.
Taking too many D3 vitamin 1000 IU capsules repeatedly can cause vitamin D toxicity and dangerously high blood calcium. If you have taken much more than directed, contact a poison-control service or healthcare professional, especially if you feel unwell.
A blood test is needed to confirm vitamin D deficiency; symptoms alone cannot reliably diagnose it. For a D3 vitamin 1000 IU capsule used long term or as treatment, testing can help establish whether supplementation is needed.
A D3 vitamin 1000 IU capsule may not be an appropriate dose or form for every child, especially young children who could choke on a capsule. Ask the child’s pediatrician or pharmacist to choose a suitable dose and product.

GLYCEMIC INDEX
GLYCEMIC LOAD
Accounts for portion size — a more realistic measure than GI alone.
To burn the 3 calories in 1 piece (medium) (0.5 g):

Times are calculated with the MET equation for a 70 kg adult. Actual burn varies with your weight, age and pace.
The D3 vitamin 1000 IU capsule is a supplement, not a meal: it provides vitamin D3 (cholecalciferol) in capsule form. The source of the vitamin and the capsule’s other ingredients can vary between products, so check the label if you follow a vegan diet or have other ingredient preferences.
People commonly swallow it with water, alongside breakfast or another meal; some labels recommend taking it with food. It contributes little in the way of protein or carbohydrate, and the usual capsule serving is very small. Follow the directions on the pack, and if swallowing capsules is difficult, consider a suitable alternative form.
