- Is it heavy metal tested? Yes, all our products are heavy metal free. If you would like to receive the test certificate, please contact us at team@aavalabs.com
- Is it gluten free? Yes, all our products are gluten free.
- How to store the product? Store the product in its original packaging in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight. Our products do not require refrigeration and can be stored at room temperature. However, since this product is made with a softgel capsule, if maintaining a long-term room temperature below 25 degrees Celsius is not feasible, it may be advisable (though not necessary for quality assurance) to store the product in the refrigerator. This precaution helps prevent the capsules from sticking together when exposed to prolonged high temperatures.
Please note that due to the presence of oil in the product, storing it in the fridge may cause temporary solidification and result in white spots inside the capsule. These spots will dissolve again when the product is brought back to room temperature.
- Can the capsule be opened and its contents mixed into liquids? Softgel capsules ideally shouldn’t be opened as they aren’t made for this, we can't recommend opening them to pour out the liquids. Furthermore, we cannot guarantee that the product will have an enjoyable smell or taste, nor can we guarantee its complete dissolution in liquids.
- Where is the Vitamin D3 extracted from? Our vitamin D3 is of natural origin. We extract our natural Vitamin D3 from sheep's lanolin, which is a substance formed by the skin sebaceous glands of sheep that wraps around the wool fiber like a protective film.
- Does Vitamin D need to be combined with vitamin K for optimal effectiveness? Mixing Vitamin D3 with an oil carrier, such as cold-pressed olive oil, enhances its bioavailability compared to a standard D3 tablet. Olive oil promotes increased absorption in the body, similar to the combination of Vitamin D3 and K2. To facilitate the uptake of the fat-soluble Vitamin D, our product includes cold-pressed olive oil as a fatty oil.
