trintiybella Posted June 14, 2013 Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 Hard to get this child to eat most times, so that I can get D3 into her. Is it okay to give without food? Or does it not work then? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dut Posted June 14, 2013 Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 Our knowledgeable pharmacist told me that you need to take it with food to aid absorption. If you use the bio-emulsion type you can take it without food as it's suspended in oil/fat. We use Biotics Bio - D- Forte. I drop gives 2000 IUs. It does taste greasy but is so small my kids take it ok and it would super easy to hide in something else as it's only a drop or so that you need depending on how much you want to supplement. They also do a lower dose one at 400 IUs per drop, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dedee Posted June 14, 2013 Report Share Posted June 14, 2013 Our doctor just told us it was best to give it at night. We don't worry about food. My daughter's Vitamin D levels were very low and they have come up to the normal range. Dedee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
