Pick up almost any vitamin D at the chemist and check the dose. Big brand, house brand, gummy it's the same number: 1,000 IU. Because it's on every bottle, most people assume it's the "right" amount.
It's really a maintenance dose: fine for keeping a healthy level where it is. But if your level is already low, and about 2 in 5 Australian adults are, 1,000 IU a day often barely moves it.
That's why plenty of people end up swallowing two, three, even five capsules every morning. At five a day, a 100 capsule bottle is gone in under three weeks.
FRAME puts 10,000 IU of D3 into one small softgel. That's ten of those capsules, in one. It's paired with 200 mcg of K2 to ensure that calcium goes to the bones and not to the arteries.
Is 10,000 IU a lot? Next to a shelf full of 1,000s, it looks like it. But how much and how often suits you depends on where your levels sit, and that's different for everyone.
One softgel. No handful of capsules. No running back to the chemist every few weeks.
