The source of vitamin D3 is Lanolin. This has been sourced from the wool of sheep living in Australia. The D3 is completely extracted from the Lanolin and while it is suitable for vegetarians (approved by the vegetarian society) it may not be suitable for those wishing to follow a strict vegan diet.

The vitamin D3 contained in our DLux sprays is sourced from Lanolin, which is the wool from a sheep. There is no Lanolin found within the product but the process of extracting the D3 from the wool makes this particular product not suitable for those on a vegan diet. We take our product ingredients very seriously and are always researching to find new ways of creating products which are as universally acceptable as possible.

Many people find it is easiest to take it first thing in the morning as part of their morning routine, but as the sprays are easy to use, portable and don’t need to be taken with food or drink, they can be used any time of day.
Yes. All BetterYou products are designed to work in conjunction with each other without any contraindication.
